Brummies tell us why they think a general election was called

Speaking to people in Birmingham

Transcript

00:00 I think the reason for the general election to be called is that I think

00:04 that most of the issues that we've been experiencing over the years is finally

00:07 over and that they can now feel like okay now it's about how powerful we are

00:14 and how many people are behind us to lead the political party in the

00:18 government. I believe that the general election has been held because Rishi

00:22 Sunak has realized that the economy is literally collapsing so I think he kind

00:27 of wants to get out of it and not get the blame on him so that's why now he

00:32 doesn't want him to win again because all the issues will keep piling on.

00:35 Since I was able to vote I've never voted. People ask me why because I don't

00:40 believe anything they say. They're full of promises and none of them deliver. I'd

00:44 say because the country's in turmoil at the moment they need a change to be fair.

00:48 I agree with Mark. I think we need a big change because everything's going

00:53 downhill and instead of things picking up it looks as if it's getting worse and worse.
