“Tom Bradby and Daisy Sampson are both formidable political journalists and their appointment signals a change in the way we intend to report political matters in the future. The rest of our team, including Libby Wiener and Angus Walker, will not be confined to Westminster. I want them out and about in the country connecting politics with the people,”
