Sunak Says He Is Fighting To Not Come Third As Poll Sees Reform Overtake Tories |
Reform UK has for the first time overtaken the Conservatives in an opinion poll, leading party leader Nigel Farage to claim that they are now the real opposition.
Plus: a look at the chaos of the French snap election; and Keir Starmer is upset that people have laughed at how many times he mentions his dad's profession.
With Michael Walker and Aaron Bastani.

If Starmer thinks it was social isolating for his dad to admit he worked in a factory, try having to tell people you’re invisibly disabled. It’s a million times worse.

One thing to remember is that many schools with special needs are private. The state sector for special needs has been underfunded for many years and an incoming Labour government won't raise the money to change that. Hands up: my son is at a private special school but his place is funded by the LEA as there was nowhere in the state sector that could deal with his needs. Maybe private special schools should remain Vat exempt?

45:20 i am the same age as Starmer and grew up in an affluent working class area. It was affluent because it was full of skilled craft men, like toolmakers, working in factories with trade unions. Their wives stayed at home, they owned houses and cars and went abroad for holidays. Before Thatcher toolmakers made a good living.

Nationwide polls are useless, both in the UK and the USA, for sorting out which party is going to win a national election. In the UK, of course, it's a parliamentary election, with everyone voting for their MP, and whichever party gets a majority of MPs gets to pick the PM (or if no majority, form a coalition); so the question needs to be broken down by parliamentary district/seat/constituency (?). In the USA, each state sends its own delegation to the Electoral College, so the question needs to be broken down by state. For instance, the largest delegation to the Electoral College, California's, is *guaranteed* to go to Biden - Trump lost by a 2:1 margin the last two times, so it is *mathematically impossible* for "third party" votes to throw the state to Trump, even accepting all the false premises behind that. Most other states are similarly a lock for one party or the other. So, I don't even start listening to anyone talking about the Presidential polls until I hear the words *"swing states"* because until that point, there's simply no useful information. I'd be curious to see an electoral map of the UK by constituency (?) with each party's ranking in each. Until then, I've got no idea how things are looking for the general election.

The Tories have tried various leaders, to retain power, the establishment is now promoting Reform to dash the chances of Labour.
As for Starmer's remarks on Corbyn, Starmer's actually a far left extremist too, but infinitely less honest about admitting it. For instance, long after his university years and into his late 20s, Starmer was a member of a Trotskyite group. He was also, right up until he was appointed DPP in 2008, a member of a communist-sympathising lawyers society (only leaving when his far higher public profile as DPP would've led quickly to it becoming public knowledge).
Not sure this kid quite realises that investment banking comes with a healrhy side order of narcotics and bullying.

Get ready for US style politics Trump v Biden
Most of the rhetoric from the politicians is about putting something forward that they imply people should be fearful about, and then in the next breath, indicating they can prevent that fearful scenario from happening. So that's all happening, often about relatively unrealistic points, while completely avoiding a creative and sincerely interested approach to governing in a way that will be beneficial for everyone.
