Voters are getting ready to go to the polls for the local elections
(Picture: PA)The latest polling is in – and it makes for grim reading for the Conservatives.

As the partygate scandal rumbles on, voters are being given their first opportunity to make their feelings clear. Meanwhile, the cost of living crisis may be an even bigger motivating factor for people watching their outgoings increasing and scrutinising their council tax bills.
