Political parties make final pitches ahead of key elections
A final push for votes is under way on the last day of campaigning ahead of elections across England, Scotland and Wales.
AI Summary
Political parties are making final campaign pitches ahead of elections on May 7 across England, Scotland, and Wales, where voters will elect national governments in Scotland and Wales and select council members and mayors in England. The elections represent the largest test of public opinion since Labour's 2024 general election victory, with polling suggesting fragmented support across multiple parties including Reform UK, the Greens, and the Scottish National Party. The results could impact the Labour government's standing and Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer's leadership, as the party faces potential significant losses to rival parties across councils in England and may lose its long-held dominance in Wales.
