- Rishi Sunak's northern 'Blue Wall' faces a major political stress test this week with a by-election in Blackpool and a mayoral vote in Tees Valley.
The two seats used to be solid Labour constituencies - part of the so-called Labour 'Red Wall' - until Boris Johnson persuaded them to vote Conservative.
So what now? Are voters happy with Rishi Sunak? Or are looking to return back to Labour?

Voting for a Prime Minister because they're "entertaining". The nation needs to get a grip
Voting for entertaining politicians have destroyed politics in my country of origin
@@zuzannanowicka6348 people r thick voting does not help us just the politicians but go ahead a vote
FOR REAL !!! If I Want to see a clown....................................I visit a circus !!!!
Beware of the clever fool
right? He's a conman. How can so many people still not see that?
Fancy thinking that the Tories will help the working-class !!!!!!!
Fancy thinking any politician regardless of party will help it's citizens.
All tories are interested in is WHAT CAN WE TAX NEXT
The northerners did and now they are paying the bills 😂😂😂L-O-S-E-R-S
@@barryscott1756 Who created the NHS ??
@@garyh1572 add when was it created after world war 2 (5 July 1948) why was it needed I wounder it wasn't created because politicians wanted to do something good for the citizens it was created to solve a problem.
Give me example of what modern politicians have done for the benefit of its citizens.
Voting for a party because the leader is entertaining, WTAF!
Vote for someone who will do something for the people & that most definitely is NOT the Tories
nah country's already fucked it doesn't matter who's in charge just vote for the funniest outcome
90% of the money coming in from the Tees valley freeports are going to pockets of stakeholders and investors
It is an utter con with the taxpayer footing the bill as always.
@@davidk7262 the worst part is that people actually think they're benefiting from it and will probably vote for Houchen as a result
Houchen and others need investigating, Private Eye have been following this for some time, and dodgy doesn't come close to describing it
@@GerryT. When Labour get in they've said they'll open an investigation, just gotta wait for Sunak to muster up the balls to call a GE
Voting Tory and expecting them to help Red Wall areas 😆😂🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂
And labour have helped more? Most of these places still have labour councils and MPs for decades and they have done nothing for the working class
@@user-it7lf7kk8m And voting Tory has helped in what way?
@@Silver-st2zq stopped the even worse labour getting in. Not saying it is ideal.
@@user-it7lf7kk8m The Tories always punch down so i fail to see the benefit over Labour.
another lying tory bozo
I can't imagine anyone in Blackpool voting Conservative. I can't imagine many people voting for Conservative at all.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Every one saw a nastiness of Tories cowany group of companies
As a resident of Hartlepool, we have seen no improvement within the town under Ben Houchen. The only thing we have seen is an increase in people using food banks. We were promised jobs but we have not materialise
Private eye is worth a read about him making himself rich at tax payers expense.
The North hates Sunak
i hope so
Red wall 🧱 😂😂😂😂L-O-S-E-R-S
so does south east west ..everywhere really
I live in the Midlands.Most of us hate him as well.
"I can't believe the leopard ate my face" says the woman that voted for the Leopard Eat My Face party.
Is that labour?
@@user-it7lf7kk8m Nah, it's your mum.
@@dub604 it's my mum party. Never heard of them, tell us more
Larry the cat would do better
I agree! Vote for the Larry Party!
The Tees Valley Freeport....the word dodgy doesnt come close to describing the goings on there.
This is the type of soft journaling ahoy allows characters like Boris and Ben to get away with it for years. The media are all too easily sucked into the showman side of the person but don’t delve into the character and substance of both men. Ben Houchen’s faces serious questions over corruption and cronyism at Teesworks and yet not a whisper about that in this report. Anyone who’s read Private Eye, the FT or the Yorkshire Post had read all about his murky dealings and yet the local/national papers and news barely mention it.
don't know why Red Wall areas voted Tories as if the Tories were going to help them it's their fault for the last 14 years
Scott Benton basically sums up the current Tory Party.Cant wait to do my bit,and vote them out.
"People like a showman." FFS, this is the criterion for an effective Prime Minister? Talk about distracting the masses with bread and circuses.
The best argument against democracy is a 5 minute conversation with the average voter
I am Leaving the UK .. Skilled and Just had enough of this terrrable Place
My daughters gone and I’m so relieved, they’re already better off in Canada 🇨🇦 I miss her but it’s better for youngsters as it will take years to get back on track after 14 years of this lot .
Where to?
@RF_Burns The Azores it's amazing and a better life
Cornflake tart and custard £5.10... wtf
THIS PIC OF FISH AND CHIPS IS SOOOOOOO TEMPTING THATS ALL
Sunak and Charles have the same looking ears and hair part. 😁🤠
But poor! Sunak hasn't the same wealth bless him.
His wife actually has more wealth than Charlie
Nonsense, Sunak's ears don't stick out like Charles'.
@@perolagrande 😆😂
@@philcarson6731 Possibly.
Don't forget the Royals don't actually reveal their true wealth for fear of upsetting their subjects.
What a condescending story about the north of England
What was with that weird visual effect on the footage of Boris at Hartlepool? Sky News doing the time warp
Time to Rebuild the Red wall!
"convseratives let me down" then she said she might vote for him?? So they let her down but will still vote for them, that makes no sense.
A bet they have noticed how crap the tories have been and by being greedy and decline in there area with public services
Big bad Ben
Ppl need to vote independent or workers party
Fish and chips are expensive these days, used to be 7,8 pounds. Now is like more then 10 pounds for a fish and chips in these days 😮
People have changed,He's trying to tap into the mindset of yesteryear,Peoples attitudes have changed Sunak so do the right thing & quit.
He's bringing nothing to help the area, love. Wake up.
I have many friends in Hartlepool, and travel there often.
I wouldnt be suprised if they go reform :/
The Surrey stockbroker belt would like to extend its warm thanks to the doughty people of the north for voting Tory. We couldn't quite believe it.
as if labour would have somehow been different.
It shows why they’re one of the most improvised parts of the uk, if they would vote in a prime minster that has done nothing but hold them back instead of one that could make real change for them because the other is a ‘real character” and is “entertaining” is hilarious. These lot have lost the plot
So who's everyone voting in replacement of Sunak. Surely people are not voting that twonk in again or are they? 🤔
Mushy peas and cheese please, Louise!
Yeah look what they did. Can't turn boats back. Reform uk
Winker !!
Come on lets do this. Tories OUT. Labour IN!
Larger than life character beats anyone than has gold policy that will help me .........British electorate
Lets be honest, NO PARYT is interested in any of us or the North.
Sunak Is A Problem
I am old enough to remember watching British television in 1968. At that point there was a lot of commentary, informed analysis and commentary from experts, as well as a lot of statistics. Now it is just vox pops, and “ask the punter what s/he thinks, especially the thickest punters we can find on the street.” Sad to see a country in decline.
BOJO was better than BB Ding Ding £2.99
It's bud bud ting ting £2.99
Blackpool is pure filth.
Totally agree...Awful place.
Voting for a conman seems weird
Reform what the hell would i vote for labour or Conservative.
Reform are just far right Tories.
@@chrisd5964Far right? They’ve literally suspended candidates because Hope Not Hate wanted them to.
@@wessexfox5197 Reform’s policies are almost identical to the BNP’s from 2010, seriously. Do some research and then tell me they are not far right.
Only 2 choices of the same old decrepit nags?
Vote for Principles and Policies NOT Party.
Think Different, Vote for an Independent Candidate.
wasted vote we need the Tories out
Was this just a huge campaign promo for Ben?
Personality 😂😂😂 that will fix everything
It's time for a bit of fresh new blood in politics the old crews are no longer any use of purpose
Brexit / Gammon # melt down 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Voting on the 5th please let's get rid of zunack!!!!!
I don't know why SKY News is on my timeline. I more trust the authenticity of the direction of a worm.
I’m voting REFORM!!!
😂😂😂😂😂
your voting tory then.
As awful as the Tories are, Labour is never the answer
We in the north should ask London to leave the UK.
The UK’s GDP (income) last year was approximately £2.6 trillion. About £650 billion of that came from London alone.
Good luck making up that shortfall without our capital city.
Vote reform
I’m voting REFORM
😂😂😂😂😂
I'm having unicorn soup as a starter
your voting tory then, more of the same.
MaRgaRet. 😂
ruclips.net/video/CCb_XbmB_iE/видео.htmlsi=ksgtb-ZXutqVoLGH "OE
VOTE 🗳️ 🏴 REFORM UK 🇬🇧

If we wanted fascists we could have voted for Oswald Mosely all those years ago. God knows what would happen if that lot got in.
Labour for the big win👍
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Sky news pretending they are for the common man 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Labour
Reform!

Let’s get the Tories out and get back into the single market. #EU #strongertogether
Why?
Hear hear
I'm voting for Boris
🤡
We want Boris back!!!
There is a reason why its called the north/south divide😂😂😂😂
The north red walls going to vote for tory😂😂😂
The north east is still a predominately brittish area, so wont get any real investment until it gets islamised like the south
