## Resource

The Times Radio Focus Group returns for the final time ahead of the local elections. JL Partners brings together 2024 Labour voters who are now on the fence — so what’s changed?  Is Keir Starmer the problem, are his potential rivals any better, or are the Greens the real beneficiaries?   Hugo Rifkind is joined by JL Partners co-founder Tom Lubbock to break it all down. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
