united kingdom to have a government that appears to have people playing around in the dressing up box and trying out policies that clearly don't work. it is at a great cost to ordinary people. i don't work. it is at a great cost to ordinary maple-— don't work. it is at a great cost to ordinary people-— ordinary people. i suppose that is the biggest _ ordinary people. i suppose that is the biggest part _ ordinary people. i suppose that is the biggest part of— ordinary people. i suppose that is the biggest part of it, _ ordinary people. i suppose that is the biggest part of it, the - the biggest part of it, the headlines are going with this idea that the prime minister is fighting for her survival, kevin. the party is essentially fighting for its survival, trying to manoeuvre a way of either replacing her in order for them to regain some sort of credibility, but ultimately the public would have been watching this news breaking, developing through the day and all that matters to them, not about positions and cabinet positions, what on earth is this going to mean to my salary or any money that may well be left off, or how much money will i be left with at the end of the month? yes. with at the end of the month? yes, exactl . with at the end of the month? yes, exactly- philip _ with at the end of the month? yes, exactly. philip hammond, - with at the end of the month? yes, exactly. philip hammond, the former

that has been trashed so spectacularly. it is on the back of what boris johnson spectacularly. it is on the back of what borisjohnson left behind, which was trashing democracy and integrity. i do think the calls for an election will grow ever stronger. we have heard ed davey, leader of the liberal democrats, we have heard keir starmer say the same and as you have just referred to, nicola sturgeon as well. i think tory mps are very likely to lose their seats, or their majorities significantly cuts, they may say let's go for an election now. the tories have been in power for election now. the tories have been in powerforfar too election now. the tories have been in power for far too long, election now. the tories have been in powerforfar too long, they election now. the tories have been in power for far too long, they need to rethink, regroup and work out where they are going and the labour party or a coalition, whoever it is, have a chance to try and salvage something. we are talking about one man losing hisjob, kwasi kwarteng on the same day that the post office
