Can Nigel Farage and Reform really replace the Conservatives as the leading opposition to Labour? How big a test will the local elections be for the right-wing party?

In this episode of Talking Politics Q&A, Robert Peston identifies the next biggest test ahead for Farage beyond the local May ballot - and the potential silver lining for Kemi Badenoch and Keir Starmer if Reform do prove a vote winner.

Robert and Tom Bradby also take in questions on whether Ed Miliband's Net Zero energy spending is justified in the current economic climate, if the government is doing enough to protect the UK from Trump's tariffs and whether or not the USA's allies are actually taking advantage of Donald Trump.

And after those weighty topics are dealt with, Tom and Robert enjoy more than a chuckle as they ponder what prolific ex-Tory minister Grant Shapps has really done to deserve his knighthood.
