Politics Unpacked

The Exit Interviews: George Eustice

Matt is back with the first episode in a new series, The Exit Interviews, sitting down with MPs leaving Parliament at the next election to talk about their highs and lows, their best and worst bosses, and the lessons they've learned from politics. Former cabinet secretary George Eustice worked on his family farm, stood for election for UKIP and went on to be press secretary to David Cameron. He talks about Brexit, trade deals, and why Liz Truss didn't listen to him. Plus: Columnists Rachel Sylvester, Libby Purves and Paul Johnson discuss Rishi Sunak's speech about channel migrants, whether universities should have a legal duty of care for students, and how fair is our system of taxes?
