Electoral dysfunction — Start Your Week with Alex Andreou and Hannah Fearn

Rishi Sunak’s Tories face three by-elections this week — what will these results mean for the struggling PM? Meanwhile, Keir Starmer’s latest u-turn has frustrated even his most loyal supporters. What pressure does he face? Plus global weather is out of control — and actors join the fight against AI. Hannah Fearn joins Alex Andreou to map out the week ahead.

• “These three by-elections are a snapshot of the nation’s mood." – Hannah Fearn
• “If the Tories keep just one seat, they’ll be able to say Labour are weak to not take all three." – Alex Andreou 
• “I struggle to see how looking incompetent on immigration is a vote winner for the conservatives.” – Hannah Fearn
