YouTube Description
as posted by the channelJames O'Brien hears these callers ideas on the reasons for the PM calling a June general election.
It comes as Rishi Sunak is set 'to become the first PM to lose his seat' in a predicted election wipeout, a poll has found.
The same poll projects that the Conservatives will be down to just 53 seats, a collapse from the 365 MPs they won at the last election in 2019.
Around three-quarters of the current crop of Cabinet ministers would not return to Parliament if the results of the poll, conducted by Savanta and Electoral Calculus for the Telegraph, were borne out at the General Election on July 4.
