About this episode
Two more Labour wins in two more by-elections. Kingswood and Wellingborough were very safe Conservative seats, but now they've turned red. The Conservatives have now suffered the most by-election defeats of any government since the 1960s - so what does this mean in a General Election year? Later, we reflect on the life of Russian opposition leader, Alexei Navalny, who has died in a Russian prison.
