Two powerhouse Labour politicians are vying to replace Angela Rayner as deputy leader. 

With the winner being announced on 25 October, Beth Rigby has been speaking to both candidates about party unity, leadership, leaks, and their political vision in a special Electoral Dysfunction double-header. 

Lucy Powell pitches herself as the independent "shop steward" ready to speak truth to power, while Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson argues real influence comes from inside government. 

It's a contest that could define Sir Keir Starmer's future - who will win Labour's deputy leadership, the insider or the outsider?

There are new questions about who knew what and when about the collapse of a trial of alleged Chinese spies. 

Beth, Ruth, and Harriet explain why a row involving names you might not know does have implications for the country – can Beijing be both a friend and a foe?  

And while there are questions for government and civil servants – they ask if Kemi Badenoch has made a misstep with her response. 

Plus, Beth was there as Donald Trump announced his plan for peace in the Middle East. She shares the stories from her last-minute trip to join world leaders in Egypt. 

And come back on Sunday for our bumper back to back interviews with both candidates in the Deputy Labour Leadership contest - Bridget Phillipson and Lucy Powell.
