About your host

During this period she has also covered as a presenter on Politics Live, the Westminster Hour & the World Tonight as well as regularly appearing on the Brexitcast and Newscast podcasts. Recently Alex has developed a new role for the BBC, working as a political correspondent based outside of London to diversify coverage and reach and reflect new audiences. Since 2019 she’s travelled the UK, spending time with communities and providing the link between political strategy in Westminster and the wider public mood.
