Final week of campaigning begins as Labour faces heavy losses forecast

The final week of campaigning for the Scottish parliament, Welsh Senedd and English local elections begins with Labour facing a damaging forecast. Elections expert Robert Hayward predicts Labour will lose 1850 seats nationwide, while Reform UK emerges as the biggest gainer with 1550 seats. The Conservatives are forecast to lose 600 seats, with Greens gaining 500 and Lib Dems 150. Political leaders are also focusing on responding to the Golders Green stabbing and antisemitism threats, described as a "national security emergency" by Jonathan Hall KC.
