from The Radio National Hour · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation

The march of the populists continues, with historic council elections in England, delivering Labour’s traditional heartland to Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party and placing the prime ministership of Sir Keir Starmer in peril. Meanwhile One Nation hs claimed an historic victory in the blue ribbon liberal seat of Farrer. Is this the end of two party dominance?
