Insider has closed its dedicated UK politics team six months after hiring the section’s editor, reports Bron Maher of Press Gazette.

Maher reports, “Politics staff at the website had the choice of either joining the general news desk or redundancy.

“The desk will continue to operate until the end of August, at which point editor Cat Neilan will move to the general news desk. Reporter Henry Dyer will leave Insider altogether.
