Inside Politics: who will win the UK general election?
The FT’s Inside Politics newsletter is joining forces with the Political Fix podcast for a special FT Live event answering FT subscribers’ questions ahead of the UK’s general election. Political Fix host Lucy Fisher will be joined by Inside Politics’ author Stephen Bush, political editor George Parker and columnist Camilla Cavendish for a discussion and Q&A.
We will discuss the fallout from the May 2 local and mayoral elections – including whether Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour party has lived up to expectations, and whether prime minister Rishi Sunak will face a leadership challenge from within the Conservative party. We will also look ahead to the general election, asking whether Labour is on course for an historic landslide with a 20-point lead predicted by opinion polls, and what the Tories can do to avert that. We’ll pick apart the main parties’ policy proposals and identify their potential weak spots.
Whether you are interested in how different parts of the country will vote, what will appear in the manifestos, the economic inheritance of the next government, or what happens to the parties after the election – we’re here to answer your toughest questions.
Register now and submit your questions to our expert panel.
