Four women from across the North West have given their live reaction to the first televised debate of the General Election campaign.
The debate focused on key issues facing the country and the North West, including the NHS, the cost of living crisis, immigration, and the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
Dr Comrie has seen first hand how the cost of living crisis affects people, and gave her thoughts about both leader's promises to help those struggling to pay their bills. Responding to Rishi Sunak, Sir Keir Starmer said: “He says the plan is working, so the question for him is why has he called the election now?
He told the audience: "Migrants have been detained. The flights will go in July - but only if I'm your prime minister."After hearing the Prime Minister speak, Sue said: "He gave £500 million to France to stop the boats - its not worked! Then there's billions to Rwanda."“The levels of migration are at record highs – 685,000. It’s never been that high, save in the last year or two," said Sir Keir.
Overall, Ellen felt that while she's lost confidence in the Conservative party, Labour still have work to do to win her vote.
