Have the Conservatives already lost the next election? With Andrew Marr and David Gauke

The local elections may have confirmed one thing: the writing is on the wall for the government.

In a bonus episode of the New Statesman Podcast, we bring you a discussion between Andrew Marr and David Gauke after the local elections earlier this month, in which the Tories did poorly.

They talk about the rise of the “Not the Conservatives” party, the chances of Labour winning the next election, and whether voters are concerned about the chances of a coalition.
