ITV Debate: Starmer vs Sunak 4th June 9pm - are you watching?

It's a head-to-head debate, the biggest since Fury vs. Usyk or Ant vs. Dec.

Labour leader Keir Starmer up against Prime Minister Rishi Sunak

Will you be watching?

What are your predictions?

It's live from 21:00 on ITV1 and ITVX, and will no doubt pop up elsewhere, e.g. YouTube, on the night.

Probably not going to watch it.

I dunno if it really has the same impact here as the USA since they already face off most weeks.
I don't hold out much hope for it being a quality discussion, put it that way.

That part. I'm expecting shouting and bickering.

Nope, modern politics are as dull as a dishwasher.

Nope.
Can't tolerate hearing the current pm.
Used to have the same stance with hearing Nicola Sturgeon and Edwin Poots.

I'd consider watching if it was Braverman or Farage debating Dowden, Starmer, Rayner or Reeves though.

Front row tickets! 😎
Sunak is pulling a bizarre stance in this intro :lol:
Sunak sounded like a rehearsed machine in that opening statement.
Lol Rishi chatting about tax raises hypocrite.

My man you’re the reason why we have the highest tax post-WWII, read the room mate.

"Mark my words, Labour will increase your taxes by 2000 pounds" - Rishi
"I will cut taxes" - Rishi
There is a clear winner lol
Rishi you’ve had 4 years to control taxes, and you’ve done little to nothing to get a good grip on this.

"When disaster struck the economy, I introduced the furlough scheme"
"Many people thanked me for that"

An odd decision for Starmer not to challenge the £2000 figure harder when he had the opportunity.

It's not grounded in fact.
