Commenting on the appointment, Jeremy said: "Peter Snow is one of the most talented and generous of all the big stars - and his work on the swingometer has shown us all the way to do it, combining attention to detail with expertise and maximum enthusiasm.

"I'm thrilled to take up the mantle. This is at the cutting edge of everything news does. Having spent years in the lobby at Westminster, I feel I'm getting back to the heart of politics just as it starts to get lively again."

The 成人论坛's Director of News, Helen Boaden, added:
"This is a marvellous appointment. Jeremy will carry on where Peter left off, bringing authority, insight and real passion to our election coverage."

Jeremy's first campaign in his new role will be the local government elections in May 2006.

Peter Snow is working on a series about 20th century battles for 成人论坛 TWO with his son, Dan, together with another major 成人论坛 programme on the ownership of British land.
