opposite of what my people in braintree, the people in clacton that i speak to, the people in nottinghamshire to this afternoon, it's the opposite of what they want. be careful what you vote for, because what you get, you will have to live for with at least five years and a labour party would be disastrous for this country. >> despair how you got here. i mean, you didn't have to have the election now. you did have the election now. you did have the election. and look where you are. you're facing annihilation at the polls. >> well, as i say, the conversations i'm having on the doors does not match what i'm seeing in the polls. we're going to fight for every vote, for every candidate to get as many mps. we want to form a government. but if that if the british people say that that is not what they want of us, then we will do everything we can to make sure the labour party doesn't ruin this country. >> well, james cleverly, the home secretary, with firm message there for tory voters, might go towards the labour party or lib dems. don't do it. he's saying, all right, don't do it. >> thank you very

the next question comes from leanne in nottinghamshire, who says... in 2022 you referred to, leanne, was taken by the labour party conference as a whole, not labour's leadership. it's currently not labour policy to introduce proportional representation. the conservatives aren't suggesting it either. smaller parties like the lib dems, greens and reform uk, though, do favour a change. under the current system, their number of mps doesn't match their percentage of the national vote. in terms of public opinion, well, in a referendum in 2011, voters rejected changing the electoral system to one in which candidates are ranked in order of preference. much more recently, a new report about trust in politics has found a record 53% of voters favour a system that's fairer to smaller parties. finally, sarah in east sussex asks that we look at the impact of tactical voting. well, analysts say that both in recent local elections and in recent parliamentary by—elections, there was evidence it was happening. either there's been big swings to the liberal democrats, an

we couldn't get into nottinghamshire, south derbyshire.d and from all over the country, really. what that demonstrated for me today was the enormous amount of resources in terms of police numbers. they'd geared up for that, and we were set up to fail and get battered, and that was simple. it was a beautiful day, red hot. i had got trainers on, jeans on, t—shirt. i was ready for no battle. like nobody else. we just had a wrestle, actually, me and a friend, a bit of a laugh and what have you. and then we stopped and got up and we saw that the police lines were opening. and he says, "summat's happening." i said, "there's nothing happening." next thing, they did, the horses came galloping through and they trampled this guy about five or six metres from me, like it were 0k to do that. and theyjust carried on going up the field. a few minutes later i'm walking round, and the next thing i got arrested by the snatch squad. we went into the holding station where everybody who had been arrested was queueing up to take their details. in the queue the
