Welcome to Full Fact’s politics live blog

13 November 2023

Hello, and welcome to Full Fact’s parliamentary and politics live blog. 

We’re launching this blog a few days into the 2023-24 parliamentary session, likely to be the final session before the next general election. 

We’ll be using this page to provide updates on our politics coverage. That means you’ll see quick reactive fact checks on the day’s political agenda but also links to our more in-depth political fact checks, and our wider work dealing with online misinformation and campaigning for better information in the run-up to the election. 

Plus we’ll be giving a bit of an insight into the fact checking process, telling you about some of the claims we’re looking into and some of the (quite extensive) research that goes on behind the scenes.

This is a trial, so please do let us know what you think and how we can improve. You can find out how to get in touch with the Full Fact team here. 

Full Fact fights bad information

Bad information ruins lives. It promotes hate, damages people’s health, and hurts democracy. You deserve better.
