In this timely podcast, Dr Arianna Giovannini from the Local Governance Research Centre, hosts a discussion with Alistair Jones and Dr Max Stafford, on an early analysis of the local elections which took place in England on Thursday 6 May 2021.

As the results of the local elections trickle in, they provide an early analysis and discussion of all things local, from council results, turnout and mayors. They dig down beneath the media narrative to offer insights on why local politics matters.
