Rishi Sunak, the Prime Minister, has said that it is his “working assumption” that the General Election will take place in the second half of 2024. Speaking to journalists in Mansfield, he said:

“My working assumption is we’ll have a general election in the second half of this year and in the meantime I’ve got lots that I want to get on with.
