10:01Now PlayingAlistair Campbell has told LBC that Labour have to ‘fight like they can lose this’ after Rishi Sunak called a surprise General Election for July 4.
Labour are about 20 points ahead in the opinion polls but Tony Blair’s former strategist insists Sir Keir Starmer’s party cannot afford to be complacent.
Speaking to Andrew Marr, Mr Campbell said: “You will know about something called the Queensland strategy, which is a strategy operated in Australia.
“In Queensland, where the incumbent, who everybody said was going to lose, basically did the message; ‘don't give these guys a blank cheque, don't give them the landslide that they think they're going to get.’
“And guess what happened? The landslide never happened and they lost."
