Politics news — governments, elections and the issues

The Politics section brings together the latest political news in one place: parliaments and governments, elections and campaigns, the courts, policy debates and the decisions that shape public life. We follow the news around the clock and surface the most important developments the moment they happen.

You'll find both the day's top headlines and the background pieces that explain what the big debates are really about — covered impartially, with the arguments on each side reported fairly so you can make up your own mind.
