YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

James O’Brien and LBC’s political editor Natasha Clark analyse this week's PMQs as Rishi Sunak and Sir Keir Starmer went head-to-head. The main topic of conversation saw the Labour Leader ask Sunak whether he would “commit to investigating" Kemi Badenoch’s row with Henry Staunton, amid claims he was "lying" when he says he was told to go "slow" on compensation for postmasters.

“Keir Starmer was in full-swing lawyer mode”

"The idea that Sunak doesn't have authority gathers momentum as a consequence of things like this"

"He didn't go in very hard at all"

"Look at his track record for sacking people - he doesn't like letting go of his ministers very easily"

"She goes in like a wrecking ball"

"Unlike Suella Braverman, she doesn't want to be sacked"

"I don't see him making an example of her before the election"

"It's more evidence of the shallow talent puddle from which Sunak is compelled to make cabinet appointments"

"He was very low energy"

"We didn't really get a smoking gun from Keir"

“If David Cameron was a Labour politician he’d be on top of a bonfire by now”

“There’s a general air of the ceasefire falling foul to partisan self interest”

“There's a question as to how much more we can impact on Russian sanctions”
