Episode description
The Times Radio Focus Group is back ahead of May's local elections.
JL Partners brings together a group of wavering Tories - voters from across England who backed the Conservatives at the last General Election, and are now considering switching to Reform UK.
Do they think the 'Badenoch Bounce' is a real thing, what are their remaining concerns about Nigel Farage in 10 Downing Street, and just how disillusioned are they with the traditional main parties?
Hugo Rifkind is joined by JL Partners founding director Tom Lubbock to discuss the findings.
