The U.K. Conservative Party was swept from power this month in its worst election defeat. Some have suggested that they may never recover and that we are witnessing a paradigm shift in British politics. Professional pollster and GB News broadcaster Matthew Goodwin joins Heritage to explain these unprecedented election results. How will the new governing Labour Party approach the U.S.-U.K. special relationship? Will Labour seek closer trade ties with the U.S. or closer realignment with the European Union? Why did the conservative government fail to secure U.K. borders from unprecedented illegal migration? What led to over four million people voting for Nigel Farage’s Reform Party? Goodwin, responsible for the election analysis for GB News, can answer these questions and more.



Professor Goodwin is a professor of politics and international relations at the University of Kent, senior fellow at the Legatum Institute, and was an associate fellow of Chatham House (The Royal Institute of International Affairs).
