Australia's centre-left Labor government is likely to retain power in a close-run national election this weekend, two opinion polls showed on Thursday, with voters ranking U.S. President Donald Trump's policies among their top concerns.

Labor could win the election in its own right or form a minority , the RedBridge poll said, marking a reversal of sentiment from February, when voters wanted Prime Minister Anthony Albanese out of office.

New-look populist Reform party could reshape the UK political landscape

From a former police station in a small English town, a handful of right-wing campaigners used little more than a WhatsApp group to mount a challenge to the century-long dominance of Britain's big two parties at last year's election. The ramshackle operation secured the populist Reform UK party the third-biggest vote share and five parliamentary seats. It also convinced its leader, Brexit veteran Nigel Farage, he had to professionalise the party, and fast.

The article from Yahoo News discusses the potential impact of the Reform Party in the upcoming Thai election, highlighting its populist policies and the influence of its leader, former general Prawit Wongsuwan. The Reform Party, which has gained significant attention, proposes radical changes such as a universal basic income and the legalization of recreational marijuana, aiming to appeal to younger voters and those disillusioned with traditional politics. The party's rise is seen as a response to widespread dissatisfaction with the current government's handling of economic issues and corruption, positioning the Reform Party as a significant contender that could reshape Thailand's political landscape.
