00:00 I can't put my finger on why I dislike Keir Starmer.

00:05 Well, dislike's a bit of a harsh word.

00:07 Why I haven't got much admiration for him

00:09 when he doesn't really inspire much confidence in me.

00:12 I think he gets the impression that he says what people want to hear

00:16 and that's it, you know, and there's no real set plans,

00:19 in my opinion, for the way forward.

00:21 I think Keir Starmer...

00:23 ..he tries to portray himself as a man of the people.

00:28 But actually, I don't think that's quite true, you know?

00:32 Erm...Ritchie Sooner.

00:35 For me, the less said about Ritchie Sooner, the better.

00:40 And I think we need an absolute change all round.

00:43 We need an absolute change all round.

00:45 Who that'll be, I don't know.

00:47 It could be New Forum, it could be somebody else.

00:49 But there is change on the horizon.

00:51 See, I don't really know who to vote for.

00:53 Cos it's question time, we're in Glasgow,

00:55 and I was actually in the audience on question time,

00:58 and I was looking at the panel and I was like,

01:00 none of them could give an answer.

01:02 They were all just as twisted as each other.

01:04 But I feel like definitely the Tories need to get out

01:07 because I think they've had long enough

01:09 and I feel like the country is in shambles,

01:11 like, total shambles at the minute.

01:13 So I don't know if I like Keir Starmer,

01:15 but I feel like Labour definitely need to get in Westminster.

01:18 He seems like a bit...

01:20 ..not it. Not it. Yeah.

01:23 Do you mind me asking, you can say no,

01:25 but do you mind me asking who you will be voting for

01:28 in the next general election?

01:30 I haven't made my mind up, but probably Labour.

01:33 Labour.

01:34 I respect him,

01:36 and I worked for a Labour Party politician for a while,

01:39 but let's see what the policies are come the general election.

01:42 I think there are a lot of holes still in terms of Labour's policy

01:47 that they need a proper, robust manifesto to answer to.

01:51 I think kind of some of the Labour views probably are better,

01:56 but I don't see him as the leader.

01:58 Yeah, that's it, really.

02:00 So I'm just going to come straight out and say that I will vote for Labour

02:03 and I will vote for Keir Starmer.

02:05 The reason for that is...

02:07 I mean, I'll just say one of the arguments that I hear a lot

02:11 from relatives, family members and friends

02:14 is that they're all terrible, nothing's ever going to change.

02:18 But even to the people that believe that a vote for Labour

02:22 isn't going to change anything, can people really look around

02:25 and think it will make things any worse?

02:27 Yeah.

02:28 Labour's always been my party, to be quite honest,

02:30 because they think about the everyday masses,

02:33 if that makes any sense, compared to the Conservative,

02:36 who are only in it for the rich.

02:38 And it's kind of funny, I think the Conservative have lost

02:41 the grip on politics for a very long time now.

02:43 They're just failing to admit it, do you know what I mean?

02:46 And it's like, they're always coming out with policies

02:49 that they can't keep up to and adhere with.

02:51 They always make promises to the public which they never keep.

02:54 I think Labour is probably the best bet anyways,

02:57 but I don't know much about Keir Starmer to actually comment on him,

03:01 so I'm not entirely sure.
