Sunak and Starmer Suffer
Feb 09, 11:53 AM
Neither the prime minister or opposition leader have had a good week. Rishi Sunak has been shown to be leaden-footed on a couple of occasions, including a terrible incident in which he made a trans "joke" in front of the mother of murdered trans girl Brianna Ghey in the House of Commons.
Meanwhile, Sir Keir Starmer is facing a huge backlash as his party rows back on its £28 billion a year green commitments. The move demonstrates many of the things people don't like about the Labour leader and co-hosts Charlotte Henry and Emma Burnell discuss it all.
