How much are people paying attention to different news stories over time? Do voters on the doorstep even care ahead of the local elections in May 2021? And is there a difference in what Labour and Conservative voters care about?

Drawing on analysis and data from Dr Alan Wager, Research Associate, UK in a Changing Europe, Anushka Asthana, ITV Peston, explains which news stories and scandals grab voter’s attention.
