Of the 335 new MPs elected last month, 139 have made their first speeches in the three weeks that the House of Commons was sitting before the summer recess. I have watched or read all of them, and they give a good idea of the kinds of people who will influence this Labour government.

“That’s nuts,” Emile Cairess remarked after finishing fourth in the men’s marathon at the Paris Olympics.
