Summary
On this week's New Statesman Podcast, Helen Lewis and Stephen Bush are analysing the results from the European elections and considering whether there are any broader political messages to be extracted from the wreckage. Then they turn their eye to the question of the next Tory leader, rattling through the rabble of runners and riders (correct as of time of recording!).
