For decades class has been a dirty word in British politics. Now Keir Starmer heads the most working class, least privately-educated cabinet in modern history, and is putting class concerns like workers’ rights reform at the centre of its politics.

Political historian Anthony Broxton of Tides of History takes Andrew Harrison into Labour’s tangled history with the class issue.
