the most famous face of British political journalism – POLITICO

POLITICO’s Ailbhe Rea meets the ultimate Westminster insider, Laura Kuenssberg, until recently BBC political editor and new host of the BBC’s flagship Sunday political show.

In a rare interview, Kuenssberg talks about her early career, her life covering the tumult of the last seven years in British politics and how she managed to survive the relentless pace of the coal front. She discusses fraternity at Westminster, how it felt to be at the center of heated disputes over prejudice and impartiality, and reveals what she really thought about British comedian Joe Lycett’s controversial appearance on his first show .
