Sam Smith: A year of chaos, contradictions and broken promises from Reform UK in Nottinghamshire

If this first year has shown anything, it is that there is no magical “Reform way” of governing.

Lana Hempsall: The verdict on the government’s Right to Try regulations is that they need to try harder

Badenoch’s response to the Nowak murder is proof she is the serious candidate on the right
