About The Daily Politics

Andrew Neil's blog
The programme is presented by Andrew Neil and Anita Anand and is broadcast every lunchtime on BBC Two.

Whenever the House of Commons is in session, Andrew, Anita and the team are here to give you the low-down, grill those responsible and discover the stories behind the stories.

Our reporters Giles Dilnot and Anne Alexander get out and about to hear the latest goings-on in Westminster and up your street, to find out which issues are affecting you directly.

And on Thursdays, Jo Coburn is in the hot seat in our Millbank studio.

Live politics

Reporting on subjects ranging from street crime to the war on terror, the Daily Politics analyses and explains why these stories count and what they mean to us all.

It's the programme of choice for politicians, pundits and the voting public. They even watch it in Brussels!
