we heard rishi sunak talking about that a little earlier on.ies happy with america sending these weapons. is that going to cause issues at this nato meeting in lithuania this week? first, i wouldn't say that's quite the case. most countries in nato, as prime minister sunak said, are parties to this convention and so are not in a position to provide these munitions themselves or to use them. that does not mean that they are opposing the us doing so, because they see what russia has been doing in ukraine, including with its use of these types of weapons, and that needs to be stopped. and as far as this goes with the nato meeting, i don't think it's a significant issue for nato at all. as you know, nato as an alliance is not doing much to support ukraine at all. it is all individual allies making their own efforts in a variety of different ways and coordinated through this process that secretary of defense austin leads. so it's not really something that is a nato issue at this point. what i do think the issue will be at nato is what to say about u

and rishi sunak with time now.e he hopes to demonstrate it that he is doing well and that he's actually making things change. the problem is that these real appalling problems like illegal immigration in getting inflation down, sorting out the nhs , down, sorting out the nhs, spending more money on the green policies, all those things are very difficult to handle . and very difficult to handle. and whether or not he can convince people in a year or so that he's done enough, that is the big question . and labour now have question. and labour now have the problem that although it is there , mayor in london who has there, mayor in london who has brought forward the extension of the ulez , do they agree with the ulez, do they agree with that and do they agree with putting £12, 50 on the daily cost of running an old car in london? well, i mean, that's an extraordinary amount of for money people who simply can't afford to get a new car and can't get afford a new electric car. so you're seeing a reality beginning to bite

rishi sunak has never been one of politics“ great warriors, right, he's never come in to sort of wagenk his idea is, if i don't engage with the provocations of borisjohnson“s supporters, maybe the story will burn out that little bit quicker. i think the damage is done... a pollster says mixed feelings amongst voters points to a careful balancing act for rishi sunak. voters are currently very unfavourable towards boris johnson, and they have been for some time. when we look at overall favourability ratings, or indeed how they think he conducted himself during the recent lockdown inquiry, the vast majority of the british public would say that was done badly. but that doesn't mean that there is not a small contingent of those who voted conservative back in 2019 and those who also voted for leave who are favourable, and that's the balance that rishi sunak has to strike as he navigates some of the ongoing challenges for the conservative party. the summer party season, a moment to relax for a prime minister who can rarely escape roars from a recent and rumbustious era. nick — we heard in yo
