Daily Politics is a BBC Television programme which aired between 6 January 2003 and 24 July 2018, presented by Andrew Neil and Jo Coburn. Daily Politics took an in-depth review of the daily events in both Westminster and other areas across Britain and abroad, and included interviews with leading politicians and political commentators.

The final episode of Daily Politics broadcast was on 24 July 2018.[3][4] On 2 September 2018 it was replaced by Politics Live. However, the regional opt-out edition, Sunday Politics, continued as a Sunday morning talk show until 27 December 2020. The Sunday Politics brand continues to be used in Northern Ireland.
