If Labour's top tier are getting down to work, what about the newly elected MPs? 

We spoke to Miatta Fahnbulleh and Hamish Falconer, previously an economist and a diplomat.I think what was really clear, I knocked on thousands of doors, I’ve spoken to colleagues who were knocking on thousands of doors, that the country wanted change. And I think what we’ve delivered is a mandate for change. And we have to deliver, that’s the number one priority.For me, for Peckham specifically, there were three things that I heard loud and clear from my constituents.

Excited. But I think a real sense of responsibility. So much is broken, our job is now to fix it and I think we wear that with huge grace, responsibility and clarity about what needs to be done.Hamish Falconer: Yes. I think it’s going to be a steep learning curve for all of us who are new to it. But as Miatta says, I think we’ve got an excellent new cohort of Labour MPs who are hungry to try and deliver for their areas. And we’ll all be fighting to do that, I get down to London tomorrow and I’m sure we’ll all be pushing for that from when we get there.
