Sabrina Carpenter tickets: What's the ministerial code? ...The Standard podcast

Listen here on your chosen podcast platform.

The row over the Chancellor Rachel Reeves receiving tickets to a Sabrina Carpenter concert at London’s o2 Arena has grown on Tuesday, with Greenwich and Woolwich MP Matthew Pennycook saying that he had never taken a free ticket for the flagship music venue in east London. Speaking to LBC Matthew said he personally did not believe it was “appropriate” to accept them.

But what is the ministerial code, and have any rules been broken? We’re joined by The London Standard’s chief political correspondent Rachael Burford

In part two we head over to The Museum of Brands for this week’s London’s Hidden Gems and speak to Museum Director Paul Botje and Museum Curator Alice Kain.

The full Hidden Gems video was produced by The London Standard’s deputy head of video, Albert Evans.
