Is Boris Johnson a zombie prime minister?
Prime Minister Boris Johnson is attempting yet another relaunch of his government just days after 148 MPs told him they don’t have confidence in his leadership. Anoosh Chakelian, Rachel Cunliffe and Harry Lambert discuss the rebels' next move, what this means for the government, and whether Keir Starmer should have been more aggressive at PMQs.
Then in You Ask Us, they answer a listener's question on why any MP would want to support Boris Johnson right now.
