A general election is on the horizon. The electoral machine is starting to whir into a frenzy that won’t stop until whenever polling day lands.

Elections mean more than just a reshuffling of politicians or technical adjustments to the nation’s bank account. New governments shape the future. From the big commitments, like tackling the climate crisis, to the small, like promising to save the village post office. Elections are a moment for parties to set out their vision.
