Show 196 - Hilary Benn

One of Labour's most gifted politicians tells Matt about growing up as the son of another huge Labour talent, Tony Benn, and about the moment where their politics started to diverge. This is a great mixture of the personal and the political: Hilary talks about his central role in holding the government to account over Brexit - and the principles that should underpin the UK's role in the world. Plus there's a bit of football chat. Like previous guest Tracey Crouch, Hilary was also on that Zoom call with Jose Mourinho.
