Chuka Umunna was confronted on the Daily Politics with allegations that he may have been behind the Economist piece about Labour expanding BIS to neuter the Treasury if Labour make it back into government. Ed Balls will be delighted…
Yesterday Labour Uncut made the link that the author of the piece, one Jeremy Cliffe, who used to work for Chuka. To be fair it’s denials all round:
@MrHarryCole Thanks for pushing the piece, but didn't discuss anything in it w/ @ChukaUmunna. About policies + govt, not personalities.

But fun to watch Chuka squirm.
