Final pre-election rundown with Sam Freedman

An early release before voters across Britain head to the polls tomorrow for the 2026 local elections and parliamentary elections in Scotland and Wales.  As the political landscape shifts beneath the feet of the major parties, Luke Tryl is joined by Sam Freedman, elections expert and co-author of the “Comment is Freed” substack, for a rundown of the final predictions and the key stories to watch on the night.  In this episode, we cover: * 2026 election insights: including our most recent polls in Scotland, Wales and England * The London boroughs to watch, and which early results will best tell us how bad Labour’s woes are. * Which areas could signify a major Reform breakthrough beyond their heartlands?  * How much are the Greens winning over Labour’s progressive flank? * Scotland’s “meh” election - can the SNP secure a Holyrood majority? * Is Plaid or Reform set to top the “change election” in Wales? * Green Party momentum: why has Zack Polanski’s approval rating taken a dive and how might it affect tomorrow’s votes? * National Treasures: a birthday tribute to Sir David Attenborough and what the public really thinks of British icons.

Britain's New Populist Right

This week we welcome The Opinion Brief’s first guest, discuss the rise of Britain's populist right, and ask why the “Badenoch Bounce” isn't lifting the Tories’ vote share. In this episode:  * The Badenoch Bounce: How has Kemi Badenoch achieved her steady approval rating rise, and why has the Conservative party’s support stayed flat? * How to Build a Voter: From promiscuous voters to the Conservatives’ and Reform’s new electoral battlefront over elderly voters, Owen Winter talks us through The Economist’s new tool to model voter behaviour as British politics becomes increasingly unpredictable. You can check out their build-a-voter tool here [https://www.economist.com/interactive/2025-british-politics/build-a-voter]. * Dissenting Disruptors: Just who are Britain’s new populist right?  * The Crisp Index: Which voters prefer what crisp? ***** Access todays graphs, charts and images: https://www.moreincommon.org.uk/newsletter/the-opinion-brief-podcast/ [https://www.moreincommon.org.uk/newsletter/the-opinion-brief-podcast/] For more from the podcast: https://linktr.ee/OpinionBriefPod [https://linktr.ee/OpinionBriefPod] Contact us: hello@moreincommon.com [hello@moreincommon.com] Read more: https://www.moreincommon.org.uk [https://www.moreincommon.org.uk/] ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
