Worst government of my lifetime.

They shouldn't be panicking. They knew this was coming for the last two years.

Why don’t the Tories run on their own manifesto, policies and their record over the last fourteen years in government ? Instead of lying and spreading misinformation about every one else.

Worst government ever.

Fix in 3 weeks what took 14 years to wreck ? No way

Nobody is listening to them anymore, the ship has sailed.

The Conservative Party need to go as they re no longer Conservative. Just disband and leave the Political sphere.

The fact the Reform Party exists in the UK shows how effed the UK actually is

Yes, let's discuss Sunak's morals... Sunak, the high-risk _bingo_ investment banker that co-founded a hedge fund in the aboveboard Cayman Islands that was instrumental in the 2008 banking crisis and almost caused RBS to collapse after his and his firm TCI's involvement with ABN Amro.

Slippery Sunak can't wrestle back anything as anything he touches will slide right off

They should have been panicking a year ago

Imagine the country having Cameron, Boris, Truss and Sunak and then looking toward Farage as the answer to corruption, stupidity and lack of policy.

NEVER TRUST THE TORIES!!!

Tory's obsessed with Nigel Farage, just like 2015 all over again.

....and there are some who still want the bumbling Bunter back or even Lettuce Truss.

You need to be aware that even the most switched on political operative has no idea how much the Tories are loathed by the general public

I sincerely hope Sunak has rehearsed an answer to Beth Rigbys question posed to him last year: "How do you feel when you lose?" Beacause, Sunak, and all of his mates, WILL lose this election, big time!

Conservatives and reform are different sides of the same coin .

Fireworks on July 4th. And it will not be in the US!

They are finally done. The problem they have is that since the mid-70s the party’s MPs, members and most of their voters have held two diametrically opposed views. And that hypocrisy has been brutally exposed. You simply cannot be pro-business, low regulation and against public spending while simultaneously wanting to conserve the nation. Actual conservatism costs money. If you want good schools and hospitals, low crime and a reduced need to increase the working-age population via immigration, you need to spend money. In order to keep a largely consumption-based, service led economy, growing, you cannot fund those things by taxing average people - you need to tax wealth. And their donors won’t allow them to. So we end up with poor hospitals, crime, badly maintained infrastructure, an army that couldn’t put a single division on to a battlefield etc etc. They haven’t conserved anything and so they must be punished.

Sad and boring but not surprising that the Tories want to play dirtier, uglier and nastier. They really have nothing else left, nobody is still going to fall for Sunak's "we have a plan" nonsense anymore. So their offer boils down to literally more of the same chaotic shambles that the public already despises them for.

The Tories think that after 14 years of fixing nothing, that attacking Starmer for being too old will win them any votes?

Multi millionaire sunak is off to santa monica leaving the wreckage of a tory party.😅

Mr Mainwaring never panicked. Maybe he should be the next Conservative leader.

They should have been panicking years ago!

I hate them with a passion

My constituency is a marginal. So far only Labour has put a leaflet through my letterbox. Our last MP was Conservative. I think the Tories are running scared.

If the Conservatives had honoured the promises that they made on the run up to the last general election, they would not be in the mess that they are in now.

TELL US A STORY TORY 😂😂

Don't know why they should panic - all they have to do is sit back and lose..

Theyre finished Please lets just have the election and get this over with

It is completely wrong that Sunak is putting himself forward for election when we know he is going to America shortly after the election.

No wonder Sunaks worried the police will be called in to investigate his conflicts of interest hopefully.

They're only just starting to panic? Jeez - they're even behind the curve on that one...!

14 years.

Panic? They are rich politicians, they have nothing to panic over.

Not surprising they are about to have an appointment down the jobcentre and evan be sanctioned 😅😅😅😅

And all self inflicted from Major, May, Cameron and Johnson

This idea of "you haven't ruled out X have you?" is so absurd. Have the Tories ruled out a tax on Wednesdays, or on breathing, or birthdays, if they are re-elected?

The Tories should never have vacated the centre ground. In their panic, they will go further to the right. It’s the end of them.

LOL!!! STARTING??? so as usual they are unprepared/late to everything hahahaha

Times Radio seems to attract a lot of bots and spam in the comments. I've seen one Russian troll and one nonsense bot already and there are only ten comments.

1 Tory seat would 1 too many.

Vichy Government.

Actually Sunak keeping his seat and then getting sacked by his party would be hilarious.

The Tories panicking only now? Did they not see any issue for the last two years.

I am so upset....I have been crying all night....for the demise of the tories. please be kind to them.

Such wonderful news for the country

TORY PARTY.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Kate’s political analysis is very good! well done.

Still voting Reform. Nobody else comes even close to what this country needs.

The Tories have given up on Britain. There is nothing left to chew on.

Katie has obviously seen plenty of Tory grissle.

They’re not panicking. They’ve goaded the electorate. They’re not frightened of voters at all, makes you wonder who’s bidding they’re doing.

As a safety technician i was concerned about lots of regulations which we were going to escape from, the Provision and use of work equipment, COSHH, PPE, Working at height, CE certification, etc etc.

About time conservatives are a very dryed up party we need a new a Fresh Party 👍👍

Not just Wales! In London the Labour Mayor Sadiq Khan* and my Labour Council have doubled my Council Tax!!! Labour Mayor Sadiq Khan, has taken, older people's Pre 9 am use of Freedom Pass / 60 plus oystercard; that conservative Mayor Boris Johnson gave us!

Are they comatose?? They should have been panicking months ago.

We've now got e coli in most of our meal deal sandwiches because of reduced regulation, how could you not want to regulate food chemicals?

Those who still support the Tories aren't exactly the sharpest pencils in the box. So, I guess it's taking them a bit longer to get on the same page.

No Kate, this is not risky territory for Labour, its exactly what the country is calling for, a grown up approach to our relationship with the EU instead of the ludicrous Euro phobia of the right. It will annoy right wing tories and Reform UK voters….but who cares?

I really like Kate’s political analysis. Great insight from a young correspondent.

A bit late to start to panic! The damages have been done long ago.

Stand down, out of moral integrity??????

I have been Conservative for 50 years and I cannot abide them. Vote Reform.

After the election reform and the conservative party might merge together to make a new right-wing conservative party, the same old faces 😅😅

The crime minister is incredibly angry about the betting on the election, because he's just remembered that he has forgotten to get his bet on, 😢😢

ZERO SEATS for the Traitor Tories.

They should have panicked four years ago when they said two weeks to flatten the curve, then locked us all away for five months.

HAND RUBBING INTENSIFIES!

Why don't people seem to understand that people KNOW Reform won't get that many seats, but it doesn't matter - they're voting for them regardless, because they despise the Tories. So telling them it'll stop Tories winning does absolutely nothing to combat the situation.

They've been panicking since the Kwarteng debacle.

I wholeheartedly agree.

Kate McCann has lovely eyes.

Kate McCann fail to read the room again. The attacks are working! Lol.

Too late to panic now, should have been panicking when Rishi was sinking the dagger into Boris’ back.

On page 2 of Braverman's letter to Sunak dated 15/11/23 she states; "You never had any intention of keeping your promises" - Was Ritchie lying all along....

The Tories were given 14 years to implement their present manifesto but they failed. eg immigration has increased and not decreased. Tax thresholds has not increased. ULEZ was not stopped. ECHR is not ended. Not a single flight to Ruanda. etc.

Nothing risky here,we should vote and beg them to rejoin.

Upsetting the Brexiteers is in no way risky for Labour, those votes were never going to them. They know exactly who their supporters are.

I am waiting for the 20th survey … 19 times out of 20.

"Starting to panic?" When the criminal investigations of their actions in office begin, then you'll really see them panic.

STOP THE MADNESS GET THEM ALL OUT YOU NEED TO READ WHATS HAPPENING AND YOUR NOT 😂😂😂

Toxic waste

Only starting to panic?

I for one will be spoiling my vote with the word's I don't comply I don't consent to any of these criminals masquerading as politicians.

Come on reform get these seats

The time for panic has passed, I feel. That came to a head when Rishi decided a pre-recorded TV interview was a better use of his time than attending the D-Day anniversary. A car crash interview at that!

There’s no need to panic. This is just a mid-term blip.

Why is having a better relationship with the EU risky? Surely having a better relationship with anyone is a good idea.

Chemical regulations were uppermost in my mind when deciding which way to vote in the EU referendum,

The opposition never hold the government to account, but when it's election time - the people will

The sad thing is, the Tories still can’t see what they’ve done wrong. However, Labour is no better than they are and their usual voters are just as disenchanted. Three weeks is a long time in politics…..

STARTING !!

I am starting to panic that I will lose my sanity before July 4th.

This new lady commentator is very on point and frankly, quite good analysis.

After the election reform and the conservative party might merge together to make a new right-wing conservative party. Same old faces 😮

If people knew what Labour really believes and wants to do, they wouldn't vote for the party. It's going to be a grim 5 years.

What's really the funniest desperate thing is this idea that being obnoxious will make them win, really I'm like could they be much worse. Really the Tories should be removing the whip from the far right candidates and moving back to the centre

im 55 worst prime minister. self serving.
