Cut the more than £3000 fuel allowance for MPs second homes as I am sure they do not need that allowance with their £80,000 pay their second jobs and eye watering expenses. Cut the millionaire’s lords £300 per day attendance allowance for turning up to go to sleep. Cut the highly subsidised bar and canteen for the corrupt MPs.

Cognitively unstable ….apparent by his actions .To be so universally hated by so many he has to be mentally unstable in some way . Hates pensioners , Hates British people Hates workers Hates any one who’s done ok and is self supporting . Disregards murders and stabbing Does his best to ban free speech , Jails people defending their country by expressing views while he frees prisoners Deranged about encouraging too many migrants of which are 80% or so young men ? I’m 64 and can’t figure out if he’s plain evil , unwell, deranged , controlled by Blair’s WEF outfit , or indeed all of them . Just very very worrying ,dangerous and saddening .

[@heimihenderson4543]

Why doesn’t Starmer do the right thing and resign and handover the reigns of power to Sir Nigel Farage?

[@JustAUsername-i5l]

Farage doesnt want to be PM, he barely turns up to his own constituency to be an MP and was the worst MEP for attendance in the history of the EU behind a paraplegic guy that physically couldnt go Brussels. Accountability and responsibility are totally alien concepts to him. He's happy to just snipe from the sidelines, point fingers and make his little tiktoks. For the record I cant stand Starmer either, or the Tories. We're just beset by self serving greedy corrupt people on all sides.

[@michaelbird6685]

Answer the question

[@kevinberrett]

State pensions are to increase £400 next year ,but pensioners wil be at least £80 worst off because they have lost at least£200 this winter and at least £200 next year ,so the £400 pound pension rise sa been swallowed up,and on top of that if pensioners sre just above the tax threshold they will pay tax on the £400 so overall pensioners will be £80 worst off , pensioners over ,80 will be worst off even more,so they give you £400 and take at least £480 off you, pensioners being conned again

[@MikeSmith-gf4lv]

What does £1,000 pounds equate to? £20 pounds a week, really, how much does 10% equate too? and further more why are the taxpayers of this country paying for politician's energy costs? Scandalous.

[@BrianPeterSimpson]

How they can sit in the house and tell lies

[@JamieStaton-u1q]

You're the Prime Minister you dope...

[@davidsage6575]

Sunak is wrong. The new state pension is £11502.40 not the £13000 he thinks we get.

[@thatonelocalauthority2809]

Then he’s only even more correct. Starmer will destroy this country, I’m calling it. Sunak or Farage are needed to get us back on track.

[@AbigailBrown-wk7xl]

Starmer has no idea. He gives 10% to train drivers!! But let's pensioners suffer in the winter, shame on you. The death toll will rise this winter because of this descsion

[@blank-dr2kx]

2:07 where are you finding the 8500 mental health workers? Are they sat in a warehouse somewhere in Liverpool waiting to be used? Never understood this number throwing. Like seriously where are they coming from? Thinning the work force? Adding more workload? Adults and children are separate services and all very underpaid

[@DeckerLondon]

I would like to be a trainee train driver and earn at least £50k per year. Not over £70k per year or more. Seriously look after the elderly. We need more new train drivers to enter the industry, why is it so hard to get in, despite having gone through hard test and vigorous testing to get in, WHY hasn't the union looked at this.... THIS IS UTTERLY SAD AND DISTRUBING I am sick and tired of hearing a train is being cancelled due to no train crew. Well I am here and willing to drive a train at a lower pay package for the time being. Yes it is tough and difficult time for the UK to restore back to normal. But don't let the elderly people suffer this cold, wet and dark winter with no affordable heating, hot food, warm clothes and so many other things that they need. I say KEEP THE WINTER FUEL ALLOWANCE & DONT LET THE ELERDY PEOPLE DIE OR SUFFER THIS WINTER SEASON!!!! ... 😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥

Sunak is so much better in opposition. He just parroted the same key phrases and answered nothing when PM but he actually phrases questions well in opposition and scores points. Obviously much of Sunak is political spin (e.g. fastest growing economy, union paymasters etc) but I get the impression he really does know what the country's needs are and what the voting public want - so why did he do non of that when he had the chance?
