Rishi Sunak went after Sir Keir in being questioned by Sky News ' political editor Beth Rigby ahead of the General Election on July 4.
Rishi Sunak competed against Sir Keir Starmer in back-to-back interviews this evening, but the majority of viewers thought the opposition leader wiped the floor with the Prime Minister.
Labour Party leader Sir Keir Starmer on stage during the Sky News election event with Sky's political editor Beth Rigby'The debate tonight was very interesting. The PM was challenged on a lot of big issues like small boats and junior doctors strikes, which are all things he has not delivered on.'But he has been in power and actually had to deal with those in the last few years.
'The real blot is his change of opinion around Jeremy Corbyn which was exposed today. He has talked about change reforming the party putting the UK first tackling the Maths teacher issue and helping the NHS. 'He took a hard line on the VAT line for private schools and justified that he would put this money into teacher recruitment. I feel this may be an issue for some of the lower middle class and upper working class in Ealing who wanted to do better for the children it may be a vote loss in this group.
'I think a lot of the audience responded coolly to the Prime Minister, so I think he'll reflect on that as a difficult evening.''Rishi Sunak has had a very tough night in Grimsby. 'The applause was fairy rapturous, which is particularly surprising given it was mentioned that 70 per cent of the local populous in the Grimsby area had voted for Brexit, and it's clear they have not got what they wished for.'
