Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer Engage in Heated TV Debate Over Key Issues
ai generated text
The recent UK election debate between Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Labour Party leader Keir Starmer saw both candidates engage in intense exchanges on key issues such as tax and immigration. Sunak repeatedly emphasized a claim that Labour would raise taxes by £2,000 per person, which Starmer dismissed as "nonsense". In response, Starmer accused Sunak of being the most liberal prime minister on immigration and pledged to keep the UK in the European Convention on Human Rights.
I'm not going to impose thousands of pounds of costs on you to arbitrarily rip out your boiler, change your car, convert your home.
I'm crystal clear, I believe all our plans are compliant with our international obligations, but if I am forced to choose between securing our borders and our country's security, or a foreign court, I'm going to choose our country's security every single time.
I don't pretend there's a magic wand that will fix everything overnight. Instead, I offer a practical commonsense plan to change Britain.
Rishi Sunak's claims about Labour and tax are categorically untrue. Labour will not put up taxes on working people.
Because I want the UK to be a respected player on the global stage, not a pariah who doesn't agree with international law.
We will not pull out of international agreements and international law which is respected the world over.
Unlike this from Labour, we've worked hard to galvanise the main asks of the wider veteran community and the veterans' charities, and veterans should be excited about our plans to continue to drive progress towards being the best country in the world to be a veteran.
This government has lost control. Liz Truss crashed the economy.
If he thinks things are going to get better towards the second half of this year, why has he called it now? He's called it now because he knows, and I'll ask him this, he knows inflation is going to go back up, he knows energy prices are going to go back up in the autumn.
I don't offer you the gimmicks or unfunded promises that Rishi Sunak does.
