It\u2019s the morning after the day before for Beth, Ruth and Jess as they pull apart the local election results they have so far.\xa0 \xa0
They discuss what big council losses for the Conservatives could mean for the Rishi Sunak narrative. How does the re-election of Ben Houchen as Tees Valley mayor help him?\xa0 \xa0
Also \u2013 are there some niggles for Labour within the results, especially with Muslim communities? Jess explains what she thinks the impact of the Middle East conflict could be in Birmingham.\xa0 \xa0
Plus, all three discuss John Swinney as a contender for Scotland\u2019s first minister.\xa0 \xa0
