YouTube Description
as posted by the channelJames O’Brien and LBC’s investigations editor Lewis Goodall analyse the by-elections as Labour swings Wellingborough and Kingswood seats, which were previously large Conservative majorities. Rishi Sunak has urged frustrated Conservatives 'not to put Keir Starmer in power' following this Tory disaster.
“Jacob Rees Mogg is saying it went well.”
“There is now something of a pattern,”
'The fact that Labour can win such a heavily Brexit-Leave seat says something about how the politics of Brexit unwound’
“The really generational significant political reset being might be happening later this year.”
“It will be a question for historians to ponder about whether the conservative party could have achieved a permanent realignment of British politics after 2019.”
“One of the misreads of politics is that the Conservative party is pragmatic.”
“When they change their minds, like a glacier, it really moves.”
“There is one circumstance where the Conservatives claim to have done rather well yesterday, and that’s if they got Laura Trott to count the votes."
