Electoral Dysfunction | Rishi Sunak: embattled or beleaguered?

As the prime minister tries to shake off rumours of a Tory coup and faces more delays to his Rwanda legislation - Beth Rigby, Ruth Davidson and Jess Phillips discuss where his leadership is at.
What could happen if the local elections on May 2nd end badly for Rishi Sunak?
Although he's standing down, they think Irish prime minister Leo Varadkar is having a better week - was this a good time for him to go?
And two politicians answer a listener question about why politicians never answer the question.

Can we have these pods on KZbin with the video as well?

[@l33jcm]

Where's our GE? I like the format for this pod, btw!

[@catmonarchist8920]

5 years after the last one as it was always going to be but the media are going to claim it's imminent the whole way.

[@Wolves942]

Love Jess Phillips. Proper legend

[@Jaiken451]

Why is the electoral dysfunction podcast more functionally legitimate than the government?? 😂😂😂 Funny AF!! Yet so informative. 👍👍👍

[@Tom_murray89]

The best Tory mps are no longer MPs Rory Stuart and Ruth Davidson

[@31Blaize]

It's nice to have a politics show with the point of view of a journalist not just politicians to provide deeper context. I do like things like The Rest Is Politics as well, but this feels a bit broader.

37 Mins in . Jess says ive never met A person who want to stop the people in the boats The boats aren’t immigration, yes Richard tice says he wants the Tories to control migration yes he does, but that’s A different thing to An alleged Asylum seekers

I'd be ashamed to pay their wages

[@icedevolution4462]

[@johnreid9959]

[@albertbrammer9263]

The Keanu diversion was excellent.

[@nakul1966]

Love Ruth’s use of the English language.

[@grahamaskham]

Ruth, Stop on! Not answering questions removes trust. Not mentioning Brexit - Ditto.

[@circleseven5115]

I’ve never listened to this before but I enjoyed it. If honestly rather have Starmer and Sunak sit down together in this kind of format to talk through what their different views are on how to fix the mess we are in. We need less adversarial politics in this country and more reasonable dialogue.

[@nakul1966]

Wonder what they are looking at on that image?

[@Shariah-4-UK]

Sunak's Bawlls

[@grahamaskham]

Every single person - even the rabbit nationalist - think the Rwanda bill is a gimmick. And did so long before Starmer said so!

[@sratus]

'rabbit nationalist' What's up doc?

[@grahamaskham]

"Raving Rabbids"@@sratus

[@chevchelios6155]

Such foul language, these are the so called politicians of now. There is zero hope!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@nakul1966]

Beth shattered my dream of her in a swimsuit!!
