Rishi Sunak accused the Labour leader of 'arrogantly taking the British people for granted'
The Prime Minister has urged voters to “send a message to Keir Starmer” as he launched the Conservatives’ local election campaign. While giving a speech in Heanor, Derbyshire, Rishi Sunak accused the Labour leader of "arrogantly taking the British people for granted" and simply assuming that he can become Prime Minister without laying out his plans.
“After having a fire-sale of assets, they still can’t balance the books, in contrast to the extraordinarily well-run Conservative Nottinghamshire County Council. In Derbyshire, where Mr Sunak launched his party’s local election campaign, the Conservatives have a commanding 18-seat majority on the county council – but suffered significant losses in the district council elections last year.
Mr Sunak said of Mr Bradley: "There's no-one better to be your first mayor than Ben Bradley. Not only did Ben literally create this role, he also has a track record of bringing in investment." A Tory source said the party had to be “realistic” about its prospects and “allocate resources accordingly” after securing just 21% of the vote in the last Manchester mayoral election.
