- "If we lose Richmond and Northallerton, we hold nothing."
Rishi Sunak's seat has been predicted by some polling to change hands to Labour in the general election, which would place the PM in a brand new club - sitting Prime Ministers that lost their seat at an election.
We went to the constituency to speak to the political operators there, along with the residents, to find out how worried Rishi Sunak should be.

im 55 I've never known the public despise a political party so much
Pretty certain that people in England have only just reached the Tory hate levels that the Scots and we Welsh have held for generations. Better late than never, i say! Welcome to the club! 😂
@@bobsmith2794 u forgot the witch with the poll tax ? 1979 with the idiot callahan?....
A little older and agree totally. Heath was disliked a fair bit, but this lot as a whole are hated far more.
@@user-bu9nb8wr6e
By the end of her tenure a lot of people hated thatcher.
History repeats itself seems.
I'm also 55 and remember how hated Thatcher was.
I'm one of Rishi's constituents. Can't WAIT to vote him out.
Anyone who has seen any of the campaign knows full well he wants to lose and jet off to California.
Yep. He's served his WEF taskmasters, now it's time to retire...
Mixing with common people isn't really his thing, judging by the painful to watch smiles he forces himself to put on
Protest Vote Niko Omilana
And yet STILL no vote of no confidence 😂. It's all fake. Democracy doesn't exist.
Oh, great. Send us your Tech Bro twerps, why don’tcha? Thanks a heap.
Now I’m sort of hoping he keeps his seat, as one of about 25 Tory MPs.
A Recession is when your neighbour loses his job ! A Depression is when you lose your job ! Recovery is when the Tories lose theirs !🤣🤣🤣
If he doesn’t lose, he’ll resign anyway. He clearly wants to retire in CA and live off his mrs’ offshore fortune. Hopefully his constituents realise this and boot him out instead.
I grew up as a friend of Tom Wilson the labour candidate and I can genuinely say he is a really honest and all round top guy. I really hope he gets elected as I know he will do a great job for my home area.
Aussie here. We had a sitting Prime Minister lose his seat in the 2007 Federal Election. It was sweet!
Tom Jones came dangerously close to being self aware there. The Tories are going to lose because they've systematically dismantled the public services and infrastructure of the country, while at the same time presiding over the transfer of more wealth than ever before into the hands of the richest, and people have finally reached a breaking point. Brexit just accelerated the process.
Too many people believed that the result would be a total wipe out. Too many people believed that "everyone" else would vote. Too many people stayed at home because their votes weren't 🗳 needed. And that my friends, was how Labour lost "For Ever" its one chance to destroy the Tories.
Use your vote 🗳
Nah mate, the tories are all just migrating to Labour. It's not a tory wipeout, it's a tory rebrand.
No complacancy. Vote. Vote tactically. Vote fast and bulbous.
I'm not so sure, I think many people (me included) will find it very satisfying to vote against the Tories.
@@Pobotrolthat's right, The Mascara Snake
The contrast between the Conservative guy and labour guy is an indication of the situation. The Labour guy, very clear giving facts, the Tory guy not knowing what he's talking about.
He's different from many other Labour MPs. Most of then seem to be emulating Tories
Really... so simple huh ..u must be a wizard.. makes u feel so superior to others... u like to feel superior, don't you... putting on a label and just swiping all humans into a single bucket, same way rasists think.. we are complex ndividuals, or just cattle?. make up your mind!
“He’s not been given a chance”
Who do you think called the election?
and who was the chancellor for boris?
He did, was it so his children could start at a new school in the autumn rather than mid-way through a school year?
"He was a great chancellor" - its easy to give away future tax payers' money with no accountability for where it goes or how it is spent.
14 years. Only now the Tories have the solutions 🥴🥴 I hope 🤞🏾 they get 0 seats.
This is my area and last time you were here interviewing people I was embarrassed to be from this area. Glad to see the people are seeing sense.
So basically Tories shooed in Rishi Sunak into a safe seat (most probably bought and paid for by his wife’s millions)
Yep, Call Me Dave did it as a favour for Rish!'s father-in-law. Wasn't that nice of old porky nob?
As someone from the area, the young guy echos my thoughts. Rishi has done nothing for the area since 2015 when he magically appeared from nowhere to replace Hague
mortgage rates are increasing. now we know why sunak called a early election
The Labour candidate came across really well. Seems like a nice bloke with a head on him
Hahaha 😂😂😂
70s man needs to give himself a shake and wake up to reality
Tory representative in this video is utterly delusional
The military has been gutted. So much for the Military Covenant!!!
The argument of the Tories being in for 14 years does stand. He is an Odious man. Remind ourselves of what his job was before 2010? Where are the 40 new hospitals?
Prime Miniature
Smelling pistake, Crime miniature.
I'm sure he's more than happy to lose his seat, he and his family have got as much out his job as they possibly could, now he wants out of politics to make more money somewhere else.
VOTE TACTICALLY to remove a sitting Tory or to prevent one from becoming an MP.
But never vote tactically for a candidate from Reform UK.
@@marksimons8861 The tories but somehow even worse.
@@marksimons8861 Which must be a condundrum if you live in Clacton where the play is to vote Tory to keep Reform out. I don't think anywhere else in the country is faced by that question but looking at their seat share rising, perhaps it is going to become more of a thing.
@@richardharrison903 they could always vote labour or liberal but seems something in the water in clacton, likely lead.
Vote Reform!
It shocks me to my core that enough people are still going to vote tory for them to win any seats whatsoever yet alone probably still be the 2nd biggest party
We shall see... All the people ( in EVERY CONSTITUENCY ) all feel the same now, this could be the most spectacular General Election in the past 100 years..... !
Some tory voters must actually live in an alternative reality given how they talk. The lack of objectivity whilst unsurprising on one level, I find utterly amazing.
Was it “Dress as a 70s porn actor” day today by any chance?
Just wondering.
😂
As someone from a post-colonial country, as much as I dislike the Tories given their past, present and future, I can’t help but like them sometimes because it’s just so nice to see people fit right into the caricatures of British people we have from when they ruled over us 🥲
The Ron Jeremy of Yorkshire
@@vidurbutalia2130 I can only apologise 🙁 Our history is awful, yet still many of us attempt to dress it up as ‘educating the savages’ 🙁 The fact that we are fast becoming a global afterthought is justice indeed.
@@BjørjaBear “Ron bloody Jeremy.
I say what I like, and I like what I say” 😂
If he doesn't witn the seat he will go to America, He has nothing to lose..
Nobody seems to be bothered by the fact that Sunak and his firm was largely responsible for trashing the economy in 2008. He, of course, increased his fortune. And, of course, he continues to lie and lie and lie. I sincerely hope that he loses his seat and just gets himself a ticket (first class, of course) to California and leaves at the first opportunity.
I hope he holds on so he can be humiliated into resigning as an MP. As he will want out of politics as he can't give his family any drilling rights, change government policies to suit their business interests, and give their companies government contracts.
NO, NO, NO... We ALL want him out.... The ultimate ' Portillo moment '......
No more than inaction man deserves to lose his seat, history in the making a PM not even being elected. He will be secretly relieved, he can get straight on his private jet to California.
Get him out
Bloody hell, I didn't expect old matey in the mobility scooter to say he's voting Lib Dem. Wrong of me to have judged a book by it's cover.
First question the interviewer asks the councilor, "What matters to people in this constituency". He then just goes on to list previous high profile MPs who were in the seat. Clearly shows the total apathy Tories have even for their so called "stronghold" constituents.
Also the older chap who said Sunak did well as Chancellor during Covid must have some amnesia because the guy pushed through Eat out to Help Out which later showed to have greatly increased the spread of COVID and had zero backing from the governments medical advisors. As well as handing his mateys billions of pounds in contracts to secure PPE, of which many delivered not even a single piece.
They want to lose.
The debt the Tories have accumulated is being compared to world war two debt.
How did you interview the guy from the 80’s? 😂
With a camera probably
And a microphone
A camera with a flux capacitor
Tactical vote get rid of the lying disgraces
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving person
Let's hope so. 🙏
Someone took a Shit in his Lake 😂😂
no A+E????????? WHAT???? torries out
That Tory councillor looks like Paul Calf
Thanks for keeping us updated! I feel sympathy
and empathy for our country. low income people
are suffering to survive, and I appreciate Deborah.
You've helped my family with your advice. imagine
investing $30,000 and receiving $95,460 after 28
days of trading.
I began investing in stocks and Def earlier
this year, and it is the best choice l've ever
made. My portfolio is rounding up to almost
a million, and I have realized that when a
stock makes it to the news. Chances are
you're quite late to the party, the idea is to
get in early on blue chips before it becomes
public. There are lots of life changing
opportunities in the market, and maximize
it.
What opportunities are there in the market,
and how do 1 profit from it?
You can make a lot of money from the
market regardless of whether it strengthens
or crashes. The key is to be well positioned.
I would really like to know how this actually
works.
All you need is a good capital, and the
service of a professional broker, with those
your investment will most certainly produce
high yields.
The last interviewee, perfect summing up of Sunak. "Some are born to lead, he isn't one of them".
They'll vote Tories no matter what.
That's why we need proportional representation to make both the Tories and Labour have to do better (especially in their so called safe seats)
The first guy owns a keytar.
Guy at the end was almost right. Sunak was 'born for Greed'.
The crime minister destroyed his chances by one callous act, leaving Normandy early, he managed to insult all those fallen warriors who never came home,the veterans who struggled to attend and probably for the last time,plus the other world leaders, and the problem is it cannot be undone, he can't rewind the event and edit the footage to fit his narrative, it's burned into the memories of people forever, and no matter how many apologies he makes, he can't change anything,
Well, I think he was a busted flush long before then. But that was certainly a self-closing door that locked behind him...
To make it worse it’s reported he did it intentionally as he thought the ‘Gammon vote’ would be pleased he was snubbing the Europeans. Shows how clueless he and his advisors are.
@@glyngreen538 If so, it is a thing of beauty that such a cynical act so spectacularly backfired. I don't think there were many bigger own goals he could've scored.
"That showed those damn foreigners!"
@@richardharrison903 The biggest act of treason that ALL of these MP's could do, would be to place bets on England NOT winning the Euro 2024...
if everyone pulls together know one vote Tories or Reform UK Sunak will lose his seat
Come on people of Richmond and Northallerton - get it together and vote out the Tory boy.
I Really hope the people of Richmond and Northallerton do the right thing and vote Count Binface!
Only 68 votes, one less than the number of votes that the vote against boris
That could let Rishi win if it’s close! I find Binface funny too but this one ejection in particular think how much funnier it would be to see Rishi lose his seat? Tactical voting for Labour rather than Binface could make the difference this time.
This is a military constituency !Why did he leave the D day events so he could do a political broadcast ?
That Conservative councillor, Tom Jones, was surprisingly candid and seemed to have a clearer grasp of the plight the party is in, that any of the cabinet and Westminster talking heads...
I had the pleasure of meeting Tom Jones at a party once. He was very down to earth, and surprisingly funny.
Is that unusual?😂
The actually like tory councillor. it’s refreshing to hear a conservative be honest and say something’s are their fault
Tom Jones has got such an un-tory look and demeanor, I could totally see him in an local band in a slight fancier pub as the bassist. But also let's get the tories out 💪
I dislike the Tories beyond belief despite being a traditional Tory voter but Labour aren't for me either, it's such a conundrum with the general election for so many people.
Then don't vote for either.... But be sure you DO go and vote...
Zero Seats!
Happened in Aus when Howard was PM, it was glorious and hilarious.
A great set of interviews & VoxPops. If I was Sunak, I'd make plans to leave Britain within 5 months, because he probably won't even be an MP in two weeks time.
Well, on Rishi's Sunak watch instead of inspiring "Integrity, Professionalism and Accountability at all levels", we've got Conservative Party officials placing bets on the election date and the only person to get charged with the same offense is a police officer.... Boot the damn lot out starting with Rishi.
I had no idea Rishi had a seat so far up North
But how can things be bad when every week Sunak assures us that he is delivering for the British people and that "The Plan" is working?
!!! FREEDOM !!! INDEPENDENCE FOR SCOTLAND NOW !!! ARE YOU YES YET? !!! IF NOT WHY NOT !!!
Cannot happen soon enough 👍
Rishi needs to film himself going back to Winchester College for the day.
That should show everyone what an NHS background gets you.
People will rally behind him.Hurrah !
That Tory councillor himself is perfectly articulate, but he exemplifies the problems they face: the only people under 60 who are properly committed are all obviously very... unusual, as shown in his case by the bizarre flamboyant dress sense and hair. Normal people under 60 largely see the Tories as off-limits.
Eric Clapton circa 1967?
"Sunshine of your Shitshow"?
"He was a great chancellor" - its easy to give away future tax payers' money with no accountability for where it goes or how it is spent.
I'm hoping both Sunak and Starmer lose their seats
Good.
Get out and vote because if you don't you cannot complain about any government you end up with. Don't protest at the pub protest at the ballot box if you want the Tories outed
I was very surprised to see Paul Calf (Steve Coogan) in this video! Is he allowed to contribute to a video like this when he supports Greens!
I think with the sher number of candidates in that constituency he'll edge it.... Count Binface could be his saving grace.
I do like that at least the Labour candidate is only toning down his accent and is probably local, at least, unlike Harrier Du Bois' Tory candidate who sounds like he woke up and commuted in from Herefordshire.
14 year of anti incumbency and they passed all of them to an indian as scapegoat.
We got rid of Abu Clawhammer and let in 500,000 dont-know-who-they-are's 😮😬 high security risk.
Northallerton is the most stuck up place I’ve been to in the north, no shock it’s been Tory for so long
You obviously haven't been to Yarm with all the 50 bob millionaires in their Landrovers and Merc's financed up to the eyeballs!!
I hope Tories will abandon Sunak.
I was a LT in the navy (Captain in the army equivalent) and quit in 2023 due to wages. I couldnt afford to stay in so left. Got a £35,000 payrise. If you want people to stay, you must give big payrises
I hope so
Correct this prime minster is no leader and has demonstrated this for the last 18 months.
Steve Coogan’s changed his tune.
I'd love to see this happen ... maybe ... ??
There's some massive concerns over this potentially huge shift.
1. Labour have too much power, cannot be held to account
2. Reform get MPs in parliament. Any MPs is a disaster, but the more they get, the worse things will become
3. If Reform do well, half way through a Labour term, expect Farage to make a take-over bid as Tory leader
As a person that lives just down the road this place needs to stop this southen infection.
Is that a term of syphilis I've not heard before?
No chance. Unfortunately.
Confused why the gent in the blue suit has two mics?
Rock and Roll, these microphones go to 11
i do agree he has become the whipping boy but he has his old pal Boris who he slid behind to thank - Tories are unrecognisable and risible
In 1993 unelected Prime Minister of Canada Kim Campbell lost her seat to a rookie politician Hedy Fry
Vote Reform
🤞🤞🤞🤞 Fingers crossed 😊
National debt ? Anyone aware of how this affects public services spending 🤔 No one mention this
He’s got a bet on it. Only explanation.
I’d like to see both Sunak and Starmer lose their seats.
Don't think he's bothered about losing his seat. He was never voted for he has NO mandate and as with all conservatives is not for Brexit. He can't wait to leave the country to pursue his love of money. God bless us all with the loss of this non entaty
Does a bear shit in the woods
One can only hope 🤣😂🤣😅🤣😢
I like Northallerton, my best mate and his family live there. Lovely place for Saturday morning markets and there is/was a cracking little vinyl shop off the main road I love visiting, bit of an aging/affluent population on the whole, but not hostile to normal folk. Wonderful Everyman cinema. But if they put him back in… ooooft, dead to me.
Vote Labour get the Tories out.
Blimey it's Dean Friedman ?
These conservatives who support the party regardless of their policies, need to have a word with themselves.
