Subscribe on UA-cam: ua-cam.com/channels/2DHAQOeEg-Z-4trARDXHRA.html
Rishi Sunak might lose his seat. The Conservatives could end up with just 53 MPs. Tory candidates and staffers including Laura Saunders and Tony Lee are gambling on Britain's future, placing bets on a July election shortly before Rishi Sunak announced the date.
Hannah Barnes is joined by Rachel Cunliffe and Freddie Hayward to discuss why the Tory betting scandal has rocked the party, and why Rishi Sunak cannot pull up in the polls no matter what he does.

    This is such a weird conversation. What are these guys talking about. They would have had a meeting the day before, to plan the announcement. Of course they had direct knowledge of the impending announcement. And of course sunak did not participate in the placing of bets. Those caught just walked down to the local bookmakers after the meeting, or did it online. Thinking they would get away with it, that no one would notice. It's not so complicated to understand how this would have happened.

    Of course taxes must be raised. If we want better services, the government needs more money. Sunak going on about reducing taxes sounds like another idiotic Trump supporter wanting to protect their billions, because they can already buy all the services they want.

    Look simply play if safe, just vote for Tory then Labour then Tory and Labour ags8n, the country has been doing it foe decades and decades but George Galloway was 100 PERCENT CORRECT, when he said rhey are both two cheeks of the same arse. So come July 5th Starmer will be celebrating a ting he won when in reality he didn't as the Tories committed suicide, rather like a football match when only one team turns up. Nothing is going to change for Britain anytime soon, no doubt some bright political spark will say let's rejoin the EU, well for a start they might not want Britain back., also will there actually be an EU worth joining, I feel France , Germany and the Netherlands may leave, I say this because whilst it is all very well and good for countries to operate and trade like they did in the common ,market, the EU seems to be a monster out of control ideology. Like all empires including the British, they all crumble over time.

We need Ai run internet council where the entire nation gets to vote on a daily basis. no partys or politicians, just the public as a whole making day by day decisions and those ideas being carried out by the public to the letter of the law.
