Comedy writer Armando Iannucci and journalist Helen Lewis decode
the utterly baffling world of political language.

This week, after a well-earned week off, Helen and Armando are
back to break down how political attacks work. After Kemi
Badenoch landed a blow on Keir Starmer calling him 'a lawyer, not
a leader', we look at what makes a political attack potent, and
crucially, what makes them flop.

Listen to Strong Message Here every Thursday at 9.45am on Radio 4
and then head straight to BBC Sounds for an extended episode.
