Lib Dem and Labour Party MPs React to General Election Announcement
Following yesterday's announcement that a general election will take place on the 4th of July, GMB speaks with members of the Lib Dems and Labour Party, Daisy Cooper and Pat McFadden, to get their reaction to Rishi Sunak's speech.
Susanna asks Deputy Lib Dem leader Daisy Cooper if she's proud of the Lib Dems' record in government after the party enabled the Conservative coalition government in 2010, and questions National Campaign Coordinator Pat McFadden MP about the fact that voters don't think Sir Keir Starmer is a big personality.

I don't want a big personality, to run my country, I want a professional who knows how to do the job, we had a big personality and that didn't go so well.

LDs and Labour in 2010 could not mathematically have formed a majority coalition.
@danielbentham758
28 күн бұрын
They could have done, Labour and LD could’ve formed a minority government with an extra 10 supporting through confidence and supply (SDLP, PC, UUP and SNP) because all these would vote with Labour on most votes anyway. 326 isn’t need for a majority if you take away Speaker, Deputy Speakers and Sinn Fein its more like 318
Ms Reid, why don’t you ever ask what the LDs STOPPED the Tories from doing? I can’t even listen to you speak.
Susanna’s conservative bias is showing. Someone tell her.
McFadden is the antidote to 'gotcha' questions, he just stares down the camera at Madeley like he's talking to a child lol
How do you make an easy £100 million as a Prime Minister? Step 1: Arrange a deal with the leader of a foreign government. His part is semi-legal. Your part is illegal. Agree to split any profit 50-50. Step 2: Arrange a non-refundable payment of at least £200 million to that country and get it agreed by Parliament. Step 3: Pretend you are going ahead with the illegal act. Step 4: Wait until after a General Election. Step 5: Lose the Election. Step 6. Arrange for your payment in a foreign bank.

No, it's so that the country can gain their independence from a Tory government who are the worst government we have had for over a century. Previous governments have messed up and made numerous bad choices and mistakes, this government just openly hates it's own people and has bled this country dry to line their own pockets.

The year is 2064: The Conservative government is set to lose a majority with a hung parliament looking likely. The Lib Dems are not going to be kingmakers, projected to win only 30 seats - with the electorate still upset about tuition fees from 2010.
Got to love a motivated lib dem. First real thing she says is about a river not about the NHS, defence, business, people….just water…same as their silly policies which will go through their fingers like their water policies 😊
No one in Westminster are thinking "Why the Nation fails to even turnout for locals, so National has a Very Steep Hill

Vote reform uk 🇬🇧 the way 🇬🇧
Agree with some of the comments on here. I want purposeful, methodical and credible government and governors. Recent history demonstrates that is not what the UK has had. Give the job to those who have relevant experience and have shown they are capable of doing the job. The last 3 would have failed via competencies on the job application. Time to give the one who looks like they fit the bill the opportunity. We need to get back to a government who puts the country first and not those who put power for them, wealth for those close to them, rewards for billionaires and future interests before those who voted them in. 15 years - for what exactly? Some people say they fear Labour. I have no idea what that is based on. I do know that in some parts of the UK it probably feels more like the clock has gone back over 50 years in the last 15. There is no one else to point a finger at. How many times do you need to put your finger in the fire before learning it's not a good idea?
We are all ready for change!!!! 🙌🏼🙏

Lib dem are just a group of upper middle class people who have zero understanding of working class issues. They complain about the environment and speed limits while the majority struggle from a cost of living crisis. I don't think most people care about these first world issues while they are struggling.

Sound bites. No substance. Lip service from the media having her on before breakfast when at best shes background noise while you get ready for work and the kids to school.
