Description

Last week’s by-elections left the Tory party wounded, with Labour and the Lib Dems on the front foot. Or are they? The Tories JUST held onto Uxbridge and South Ruislip, and those on the right say that’s down to Labour’s ULEZ policy. Starmer, for some reason, ran with that narrative. Is he losing his nerve over his party’s green policies? And when will the Tories stop shitting on young voters? That’s Oh God, What Now? With this week’s guest, Rachel Cunliffe.


“If I were Sunak I’d be tearing my hair out, but the narrative is - it wasn’t that bad really.” – Rachel Cunliffe 

“The Lib Dems are like ‘WE ARE KINGS OF THE WORLD’.” – Marie Le Conte

“I think Labour are currently making a category error on what the Tories’ strategy is.” – Alex Andreou.

“You don’t earn any votes by shitting on young people.” – Marie Le Conte.
