The reform of Nigel Farage build muscle in key regions of the country, the host of Westminster, Sascha O’Sullivan, speaks to politicians through northern England, where the Labor Party has a difficult battle to convince their heart to trust them.
Sascha speaks to Labor MP Josh Simons, whose siege of Makerfield had one of the strongest proportions of votes for the reform without voting in one of the deputies of the party. Simons tells Sascha his plans to convince his voters that Westminster – and the Labor Party – speak for them, and how finally the construction of a road, was first assigned to the need in 1949, could be a symbol for this.
And Sascha goes to Darlington, in the northeast of the country, where Labor MP Lola McEvoy has competition from the reform, which took over the Durham county council only 5 miles in the south, and the conservative bastion of Tees `Valley, led by Mayor Ben Houchen.
The Labor MP and member of the Blue Labor Group Jonathan Hinder explains why work disconnected from its working class roots in the North and how practical initiatives and investment will only do so far.
Zoe Billingham, director of IPPR North, explains to Sascha why the agenda of the “upgrade” of Boris Johnson spoke to these voters and how not to hold on many of these promises made the Labor challenge.
The former Conservative MP for Boston and Skegrande Matt Warman explains how Reform Uk managed to win his constituency – and what will take to some of these Labor deputies to repel them.
