don't worry there was hundreds of us from nottingham protesting the debate! u can hear us through their mics

The reason it's difficult for people to get a home is because you turned it into a commodity.

Starmer - my mum was a nurse and my dad was a tool maker…………
Sunak - tax, tax tax, tax, tax, tax, tax, tax, tax………
Me -🥱😴

The most concerning part of the 2024 General Election is that we are guaranteed a shit show if either of these two are elected yet people are still not looking to the other parties. They can both do whatever the hell they want and nothing will ever change. This country needs to wake up and look at the other parties more seriously.

[ynlfhgn]

First time ever, I see no difference, what's so ever in between these two candidates!!!!
One coin with two sides to me!!

[Jabskin]

same boring yammerin as the last one. wheres the nitty gritty policy at

[happinesstan]

If we could get a Labour victory with constituency defeat for Starmer, things could get interesting.

Also why is pissy Rishi always allowed to lie all of the time.

[flopadoo]

My god - Starmer is abysmal, and yet somehow also terrifying.

[happinesstan]

Sunak believes in a compassionate welfare system "If you build a man a fire, he'll be warm for the night. But if you set the man on fire, he'll be warm for the rest of his life"

[oneummah]

Politicians promise the earth but never deliver anything.

[AD-dkbv]

Wake me up when they actually say what they are going to do.

[beegnutz]

I couldn't even listen to those two w8nkers for 15 minutes. Had to switch off because it's just the same old nonsense.

[lifefamilyfitnessboxing]

I am not voting for either these candidates.

[frankjacobs]

Starmer's stance on illegal immigration is terrifying.

[ginomoujik]

1:27:23 Nigel Farage can promise young people anything he likes.. he knows he won't be accountable for it. And he can't account for any of it. No point of referencing fantasies.

[happinesstan]

People relating to Sunak because he cares for his kids, is possibly the most sickening thing I've seen. His "little ones" have every advantage the modern world could provide. He hasn't got a clue what it means to worry about your kids future.

[whynotbekind]

the billionaire vs the ming vase. there is no hope.

[RR-spey]

I'll be voting SNP. These two are basically the same party. They have even started sharing the same scandals.

[stephaniewhite]

Great coverage from Novara. I really appreciate Ash' supportive comments about how trans people are political footballs, and I would add the Trans Community has been turned into public enemies by Sunak which is disgraceful behaviour from the leader of the country, especially with hate crimes soaring.
