In The Room | Laura Kuenssberg: Inside Westminster’s decade of chaos
Laura Kuenssberg discusses the state of British politics in a special episode, drawing on two decades of reporting and interviews with every living UK prime minister. She argues that public frustration has grown as people feel squeezed and the political system has failed to earn their patience.
The conversation explores how politicians try to shape the news narrative and what Kuenssberg sees as deeper dysfunction in government. She reflects on Boris Johnson, Theresa May and Keir Starmer, and on a question about Peter Mandelson that she never had the opportunity to ask; her new book is titled *Pay Attention*.
In short
- Kuenssberg reflects on two decades covering Westminster.
- She says no politician she has met thinks government works well.
- Her new book examines what she has learned about politics.
