From Nights, 10:45 pm on 13 June 2024

With 20 days left until the UK goes to the polls it increasingly looks like the ruling Conservative Party will not only lose their hold on power after 14 years in charge, it looks like it could be a landslide for the Labour Party.

Henry Cooke is a former Chief Political reporter at Stuff, who is now based in the UK but still writes a political newsletter called Museum Street.

He's also keeping a close eye on the UK election and he speaks to Emile Donovan about how things are going, fewer than 3 weeks out from polling day.
