YouTube Description
as posted by the channelLabour Peer Lord Charlie Falconer said the current Labour Party made him feel "depressed" and that the party had failed to tackle anti-Semitism.
With the ongoing Labour leadership race, Nigel Farage spoke to Labour peer Lord Charlie Falconer, a former flatmate of Tony Blair and architect of three general election victories for his party.
Nigel asked how today's Labour Party made him feel and the peer was quick to say it makes him feel "depressed."
He told LBC the party struggled at the last election because people didn't feel like the Labour Party could take over straight away, "there were too many doubts about the leadership."
He said under Jeremy Corbyn, the party had "failed, over the last three years, to provide any particular clarity, about what should happen to the main issue of the day, namely whether we should leave the European Union, and if so on what terms."
Lord Falconer told Nigel Farage "you have to be able to say to the country 'they are bad, we have something that we offer that you could accept' and they weren't doing that."
"We've got a long way back to go at the moment, it's going to be very difficult."
