TBF 90% of Politicians are delusional. Neither Starmer nor Sunak know what a woman is. That alone tells us everything about them and neither should be allowed within 500 miles of 10 Downing street.
But don't expect taxes to be cut either ! They have no intention of increasing the tax threshold, which means more and more low paid will be dragged into paying tax, and that includes the state pension, which is already one of the worst in Europe, Starmer refused to say if he would not be taxing state pensioners ! Terrible.
The horribleness of all this is that Sunak doesn't give one hoot! He takes his wife's 700 odd million to california and lives the millionaire lifestyle! Win win for him.
He earned his own millions betting against the country’s economy. His actions as a hedge fund Partner (there were only 19 partners in the whole company) helped cause the crash of RBS. He made money while the public funded bailout of the bank cost £4.5 billion. Sunak is a parasite.
@@peterbradshaw4817 Correct. Labour have to go just as much as the Tories. If everyone voted for either Reform UK or Workers Party, that would be a unique way of uniting the right and left. The people remaining united is the only way for us to win - even survive. We've never had an opportunity like this before.
Simple reason. A peer in the House of Lords isn't seeking reelection and therefore not bound by Ofcom election period broadcast rules and more obviously isn't out canvassing for votes and general electioneering in his constituency. This story is all about how the Tories are collectively getting their backsides kicked into the middle of the next century.
Get Howard back into the studio on July 5th and play him this interview. Laugh in his face, show him the door and make him understand how utterly ridiculous he is.
Dunning-Kruger effect to be renamed to Michael Howard effect. Tone deaf isn't even remarkably close to how bewildered this man appears to be by reality.
It’s weird how, much like the incompetence of the conservatives over the last 14 years, this branch of the English right has been “surging” for 14 years. UKIP then Brexit Party now Reform. And yet they never break any real electoral ground. So why are we hearing about them so much?
I agree. And after Reform get zero seats in this election my money is on Farage disbanding the party then returning with a new grift a couple of years down the line.
You’re right in that they don’t get any seats because of the FPTP system. However - they clearly do have a huge impact on conservatives and Tory voters. Brexit being the obvious example. They will also have an impact in that they may drain seats from the Conservatives which will help Labour.
England only. Reform don’t get a mention in Scottish polling. They don’t stand in NI. Wales has very little interest in Reform. They are an English party, and an English problem.
@indigo098765 brexit is great in theory. Who wouldn't want to be independent? Why rely on other countries. But brexit is like anything, you need to know how to use it. Like a car, if you have an idiot behind the wheel then it will mess up. And multiculturalism has divided our country more than ever, sections of society hate each other, just look at London at the moment with the protests.
You may have a poor opinion of Starmer but judging by the polls the public have even an even poorer opinion of Sunak and your party. Why ask this man anything, he has nothing to say beyond wittering on about Starmer and Labour. This man is just embarrassing himself.
I door stepped a lady last weekend who said she was voting Tory because Tories help people on benefits, and Labour don't do anything to help them... it's not short memories, it's brainwashing.

Howard's snide comment about Angela Rainer, shows his disdain for the working class and females. To me, this interview outlines how out of touch Michael Howard is.
Saying labour are attacking sunaks charachter by saying he lied is so misleading, and dont get me started on comparing sunak to johnson, a pair who got fined together in partygate to starmer and corbyn when the former kicked the latter out of the party.
