Caroline WheelerLead Political Journalist and Investigations Specialist at The Sunday Times

Caroline Wheeler serves as Output the Political Editor of The Sunday Times, bringing nearly two decades of experience from the heart of Westminster. Throughout her career in parliamentary reporting, she has been responsible for breaking major national stories, including the exposure of Operation Yellowhammer and the initial details of coronavirus lockdowns. Her deep understanding of Whitehall operations is built on years of direct engagement with Prime Ministers, Cabinet Ministers, and senior civil servants. Her distinguished career began in regional journalism before she took on senior roles as the Political Editor of the Sunday Express and Deputy Political Editor at her current publication. Beyond daily political reporting, she is a formidable investigative journalist whose twenty-year coverage of the NHS contaminated blood scandal prompted a full public inquiry. Her work has also led to National Crime Agency investigations into modern slavery within the British textile industry after she exposed systemic labour exploitation. As a respected voice in British media, she frequently provides expert analysis for the BBC and Sky News, appearing on programmes such as the Andrew Marr Show and Radio 4's Westminster Hour. Audiences book her for her unparalleled insider perspective on the current political landscape and her ability to decode the complex inner workings of the British government.
