why on earth is keir starmer here? >> well, keir starmer is here because he has to be. happened in 2017 when theresa may tried ducking the debates. the reality is that , i debates. the reality is that, i think a lot of parties might somewhat regret this new tradition that's been in place since 2010. but there's no ducking it. it's part and parcel of the election campaign now, and he'd look for it if he wasn't here. but of course, he's not as many debates as rishi sunak wanted him to be at rishi wanted a debate every single week because traditionally , the week because traditionally, the underdog has more to gain from these debates, and the person in front has much more to lose. so for keir, it's a traditional performance of carrying that ming vase across the slippery floor. and for rishi, he's really going to be biting and tackling starmer on every point of contention. he's got a problem, though, hasn't he, mr sunak, if he interrupts too much, he looks a bit preppy, a bit keen to get involved a bit. >> the school boy, the head boy, not the head teacher. how does he mana

it is starmer. public's verdict. it is starmer.right, 64% of people who watch that leadership event thought that starmer won, and the greens have released their manifesto investment in nuclear weapons is not a good use of pubuc weapons is not a good use of public funds. >> there are some incredibly wacky things in that manifesto. >> i look forward to bringing that to you. you will not be disappointed. and also, do you remember this flights removing illegal migrants will depart in july . well, i've got some july. well, i've got some information for you that appears to indicate that loads of illegal migrants have just been set free. who would have thought it on my panel tonight is the director of popular conservatives, mark littlewood, landlord and activist adam brooks and ex labour party adviser stella kidu. oh yes. and can you spot what's wrong with this picture? can we keep it on the screen for a sec? yeah, there we go. anyone? anyone spot. what's wrong with that picture? well, i'll be telling you all about that shortly. get ready

sir keir starmer infections.ir keir starmer says a labour government would work with whoever is in power in france on tackling illegal migrant journeys across the engush migrant journeys across the english channel from france, sir keir starmer and rishi sunak returned to the campaign trail today after clashing last night at nottingham trent university, where they were in debate over illegal immigration and the betting row. in a tv special, the prime minister says the country would be in danger, though under a labour government being led by a leader who he said has no plan to stop the boats. >> here, starmer changes his mind on almost every major position that he has taken and times that we're living in, you need leadership which has the courage of its convictions . courage of its convictions. that's what i have. you have to ask yourself why is he not telling you his plan for the country? what he wants to do? because he probably doesn't think they're going to like it when you hear it, right? we know, as you saw la

when you last talked to keir starmer, i speak to keir starmer. >> all the time.him today. >> and how is he? is, he is he up for it? is he full of energy and how long has he been been preparing for this? he's he's in good spirits. >> he's determined. and you know why he's determined? because he knows great britain can be so much better than this. we don't need to have so many people on an nhs waiting list. we don't have to have to have young people priced out of the dream of home ownership. we don't have to have this chaos at our borders. keir starmer has got a plan to fix these problems and make britain great again. >> he'll be challenged by his support in the past. first for jeremy corbyn, that might hurt him. jeremy corbyn is not a candidate in this election. >> liz truss is still a candidate, though, does she? sunak's done nothing about her and she crashed the economy. but look, this is a completely changed labour party and keir starmer's own strength in changing the labour party and he will change the country as well. >> he says change and change is your big

sir keir starmer.s where i was going with the question, and i was completely blindsided, frankly, by his answer. now, i was sitting across from him at the back of the back of that battle bus, the red leather battle bus, the red leather battle bus, the red leather battle bus, and his eyes were welling up and he just said, no, no, no, let me finish here. and he he said he said in terms that when he grew up, his dad was mocked by people for saying he worked in a factory. his dad stopped saying it in polite company. he stopped going out. he withdrew into himself because he felt that people didn't respect him. in the part of surrey he lived in, and that is keir starmer's lived experience of people laughing about his dad. and i think he probably thought that at school . i think thought that at school. i think he probably fought it in the early part of his life. and so when he hears it now on the political stage, even though he's in his early 60s, it cut him to the core. and he said so. and i think you and i

bought keir starmer, is it reassurance?bour don't win anywhere near as many elections as the conservatives. absolutely, and when i say safety first, what i mean is he wants to ensure that people who are as it stands intending to vote labour and pats telling pollsters that, don't have second thoughts over the next week and it is of course worth bearing in mind that election day is notjust bearing in mind that election day is not just election bearing in mind that election day is notjust election day any more and a lot of people in the country might have already voted by post so there is that extra dimension to it that people might be pulling out that postal form tomorrow morning straight after watching this debate and every moment matters now for these two leaders. to and every moment matters now for these two leaders.— these two leaders. to mention the olls and these two leaders. to mention the polls and let _ these two leaders. to mention the polls and let me _ these two leaders. to mention the polls and let me ask _ these
