Coffee House Shots

The local elections: are we heading for a 1997 moment?

14 min • 5 maj 2023
The local election results so far paint a fairly grim picture for the Conservatives, whilst Labour and the Liberal Democrats have made big gains in key areas.

Katy Balls speaks to Fraser Nelson and pollster James Johnson. 

Produced by Oscar Edmondson.
