1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,000 Speaker 1: In the Brady UK correspondence with us Hey. 2 00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:04,680 Speaker 2: Inda, Hey Heather, great to speak to you again. 3 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:06,880 Speaker 1: Do you reckon that the public is going to forgive Sunek? 4 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 2: Absolutely not leaving D Day commemorations early. I mean, forty 5 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 2: one men who fought on the beaches eighty years ago 6 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:19,040 Speaker 2: managed to dust themselves off, get themselves into suits and 7 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:21,439 Speaker 2: get themselves across the channel. And these are one hundred 8 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 2: year old men and they managed to see it out 9 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 2: to the end of the day. President Biden eighty one 10 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 2: years of age, not exactly nimble on his feet, he 11 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 2: managed to see it out to the end of the day. 12 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 2: And King Charles, who's got cancer, managed to stay until 13 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 2: the end of the day. People are angry, people are 14 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: very angry, and I don't think Sunac is getting it. 15 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 2: So he's given this interview with Nick Robinson on the BBC, 16 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 2: which a lot of people watched, and I thought it 17 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,879 Speaker 2: was a good combative grilling, and Sunac said that he 18 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 2: just hopes the British public can forgive him. He didn't 19 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 2: show very much remorse, I thought, and he didn't give 20 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 2: an explanation. And for anyone who hasn't followed the story, 21 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 2: he failed out of D Day early in France to 22 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,479 Speaker 2: come back and do a pre recorded TV interview which 23 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 2: hasn't actually gone out on air yet. 24 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. Now, over the weekend, probably as a result of this, 25 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: he was on a media blackout right. The media weren't 26 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: allowed anywhere near him. Is that has that now lifted? 27 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 2: So campaign trail today will be different. It's the launch 28 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 2: of the party manifesto. He can't hide. I mean, look, 29 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 2: it's a low bar. There was a campaign a few 30 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 2: years ago Boris Johnson actually hid in a fridge, not 31 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 2: a word of a lie. He hid in a fridge 32 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 2: to avoid the media. Sunak had a complete media blackout 33 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 2: at the weekend. They wouldn't let anyone near him because 34 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 2: they knew the anger was so raw with the public 35 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 2: that he was quite likely to get decimated in an interview. 36 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 2: So he didn't do anything at the weekend. Today's different, 37 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 2: it's party manifesto launch. He will be talking about cutting taxes. 38 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 2: I'm sure he will be telling people again that labor 39 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 2: will put up taxes. Labor deny this and the focus 40 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 2: I think today a lot will be on house building 41 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 2: and in particular helping young people get on the ladder. 42 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 2: We have people in their thirties. Here with good jobs, 43 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 2: living with mummy and daddy in their thirties, something has 44 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 2: gone badly wrong, and he accepted that. To be fair 45 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 2: to Sunac, he accepted that under a conservative government it 46 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 2: has got harder to buy a house. 47 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 1: Yeah too, right, do you I mean do you think 48 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: the phan's off the hook though? With him? I mean 49 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,799 Speaker 1: nobody's going to listen to what Nobody will care what's 50 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: in the manifest though? Right? 51 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 2: Well, the polls, the polls are everything, and you know 52 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 2: people are questioning the polls. I've worked long enough covering elections. 53 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 2: It is extremely sophisticated. The polling now and Starmer's hitting 54 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 2: forty six percentage points. And it's really interesting, Heather, because 55 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: when you go around and talk to people, what do 56 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 2: you think is Starmar? They all go always quite boring, 57 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 2: always got no charisma. Oh, I'm not sure I agree 58 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 2: with him, but I'm definitely voting for him because he's 59 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 2: not Sunac. And that'll tell you. That'll tell you soon. 60 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: Next polling twenty two to twenty three percent. The other 61 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 2: fellow's double it, and people are saying he's got no charisma. 62 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 2: So it's not like it's not like Tony Blair way 63 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 2: of optimism and charisma and incredible public speaking. I think 64 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 2: people just don't like Sunac. But you know, my real 65 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 2: concern is who's advising this guy? 66 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: Right? 67 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm no politician and I'm no political advisor. 68 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 2: But if I was looking at D Day, I would 69 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 2: have said, stay until the last minute, shake hands with 70 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,079 Speaker 2: every single one of those men, and if possible, when 71 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 2: the king is giving his speech, shed a few tiers 72 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 2: in public. Yeah, and that sounds really cynical, but that's 73 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 2: what the public wanted to see. And he bailed out. 74 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 2: He went home early. 75 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: Yeah too, Right, he's getting terrible advice or he's just 76 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: not listening to advice. Hey, how cute was the advice 77 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: that Prince Louis gave the football team. 78 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 2: I love this. So Euro twenty four gets underway on 79 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 2: Friday night in Germany. So it's the soccer Championships of Europe. 80 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 2: The first game will be Scotland against Germany and England 81 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 2: are in there. Obviously. England are amongst the favorites to 82 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 2: do really really well, and Prince William has been to 83 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 2: visit the team their training camps in Georgie's Park and 84 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 2: William said the boys in the dressing room. He was 85 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 2: addressing England, giving him a big kind of sendoff speech, 86 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 2: and he said, look, I did the school run this 87 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 2: morning and I said to the kids that I'd be 88 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 2: seeing you boys later on today and I said, any 89 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 2: last minute advice kids, what should I tell Harry Kane 90 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 2: and the team? And Prince Louis piped up and he said, 91 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 2: have double helpings at dinner. That'll help you play better. 92 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 2: So William passed that on to the team. Look, I'm 93 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 2: not sure extra food is going to help elite athletes 94 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 2: run around and get cramps and stitches, but it got 95 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 2: a laugh and Prince Louis that's what he does. 96 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's cool.
