Theresa May had hoped to use this week's reshuffle to relaunch her faltering government.But the Prime Minister’s best plans quickly fell apart  when she delivered one of the most disaster-strewn ministerial shake ups in recent memory.

It started with Chris Grayling being named as Party Chairman for 27 seconds, saw Jeremy Hunt refuse to move jobs and ended with the resignation of Justine Greening.

In the latest Ayes to the Left podcast, the Mirror’s Jason Beattie, Ben Glaze and Nicola Bartlett discuss why it went so wrong and what are the implications for May’s government.

They also talk through the first PMQs of the New Year which saw Mrs May trip up again.

The Mirror team discuss if we have reached “peak Corbyn” and why this year may not be plain sailing for the Labour leader.

And they name the politicians to watch in 2018. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
