Re: 5pm press conference from the PM

BBC are saying 4 July as well. Although the correspondent I was listening to just now didn’t say it exactly, it sounded like it was going to be called because ithe situation will be about as good as it’s going to get for Sunak’s five pledges.

Re: 5pm press conference from the PM

With the improvement in inflation figures and the possibility of interest rate cuts it would have made sense to wait till November

So he's called it very early

Borrowing figures are poor so they can't cut taxes


Seems like a very bad time to call it


I am hoping he's done it knowing he's lost and wants to see so many of his backstabbing crew like braverman , Truss etc lose their seats

Revenge and all that

I guess the fact that they are going to have to spend north of 10 billion on the infected blood scandal means there will be no room for tax cuts in September, so now is probably as good as it gets

Hilarious as Sunak is waffling on about how good he's been and someone is blasting out "Things Can Only Get Better" :hehe:

I hear that

I am all for ripping into the Tories but that's a bit embarrassing assuming it's a Labour supporting stunt

After a few years Blair went mad and the rest is history

Sunak confirms election to take place on 4 July

Sunak says the king has granted the dissolution of parliament, and the election will be on 4 July.

Oh dear. I don't think this is going the way he imagined it!

Re: 5pm press conference from the PM

Sounds like the Tory campaign is going to be all about protecting us from the enemy within and without - they’ve got nothing else to run on.

I would love them to be absolutely leathered but I think it will be a hung parliament with labour having most seats and forming a coalition or minority government
