i mean, we still talk today about the portillo moment, at the 1997 election, how many similar moments beasts, so many tory mps with large, you know, seemingly and seemingly safe seats who are at real risk of losing theirs and big names too. >> there are still some big names left, still some a few left, just a few. i mean, the portillo moment was i mean, that man was being seen as a potential prime minister, wasn't he? and my goodness, what a moment it was. >> and, you know, penny mordaunt's named here. how many times does she come up in talks about the potential next? >> she's got a decent majority, though, hasn't she, penny? >> not enough. she's under risk. not enough to feel safe. yeah. yougov poll. but i think it's also depending on how what kind of campaign they run, how local is it for your mp? because what we saw in the mayoral elections, in local elections was that actually, you know, sometimes the leaflets weren't even blue for the tory candidates. they just wanted to be your local representative. so if they dis themselves from the national disaster and say, i have been a good

. >> and eye catching policy, although, as michael portillo has been suggesting, this might please labouruse it's going to distract people from distract journalists from scrutinising labour's policies. i mean, this is a almost a snap election, even though we've had nearly five years of this particular version of the tory government . version of the tory government. and so you might think that labour are caught on the hop. so there's an opportunity to scrutinise labour, which is what we want in a democracy. but instead we're talking about nonsense policies like this. let me address the royal family question first. if it is going to go ahead and it's not going to go ahead and it's not going to go ahead and it's not going to go ahead, because the tories are going to lose this election. in my view, it's not impossible that something crazy will happen. and b even if they win, i don't think it would actually work in practice. but if it were to, then of course the royal family should participate as well. we should all be equal under the law. let me quickly address this policy. it feels to me lik

michael portillo, one of your, presenters, former defence secretary, said yesterday it's not thoughtugh. there's no consultation, and even last week the tory defence minister in the house of commons said there were no plans for national service in any form because it would do more harm than good. so strong, sound defence under labour are not these kind of gimmicks. >> i wonder, bill, if people trust sir keir starmer though, because, i mean, it was only at the last general election that he was backing jeremy corbyn to be prime minister, a man who had more in common with moscow than the mo, the man who wanted to scrap trident, who would roll over and get in bed with a lot of our state's enemies, sir keir starmer backed him to be prime minister. what's changed so much in the interim period? we heard there from katherine forster vote ers are fed up of rhetoric. they want to see some detail as well. >> keir never supported that corbyn agenda on defence. but look you know it's a reality prime minister. yeah. and it's a reality of politics that that people support their parties and a genera

maybe they just don't want to stick around for that painful portillo moment .stand down and go quietly . to stand down and go quietly. >> well, absolutely. and because and there's another factor in all this. i mean, there was another, conservative mp who's standing down who actually confessed to the website politics home. he said, look, the fact is that quite a lot of my colleagues have already effectively butted out. they spent half their mornings or sections of their mornings filling in job application forms. and, he said , by the way, forms. and, he said, by the way, i'm not one of them, but but it's going on and it is logical that if they're reasonably young, they've got their families to support, they've got their futures, they've got places to go. people to see. and you're in a much, much stronger position to get another job. if you are in a job than if you are on the scrapheap and peter, you mentioned there he has a safe seat. >> a majority of 25,000. are we in the danger zone now saying there's nothing , no such thing there's nothing, no such thing as a
