  1. This host is much better. No leading question, pushes back against nonsense claims. It's a shame he wasn't taken to task on his made up statistics. When asked about 2000 albanians being sent back, he responded that 12000 albanians came last year and less than 1% of their claims had been processed. He must be one of those Sunack is talking about that did not do maths throughout high school. 2000 is 16% of 12000, so at least that many claims have been processed if 2000 have been sent back. Then when numbers are objectively down month to month, he talks about an increase based on 2 years ago compared to the 6 months ago. Then he uses the same less than 1% of claims processed statement he tried on albanians. Labors "5 point plan" by his own admission would cost more, but would essentially amount to not changing anything. 😂 And the biggest stand out, he's claiming party victory for an election that hasn't been run yet and which polls so far have labor losing. Most telling is he refused outright to say labor would scrap the Rwanda policy. Instead he said labor would only get rid of it if it wasn't working. That's a very different statement. The reality is the Rwanda policy is modelled off policies from elsewhere that do work and will similar work in the UK. The faster it gets implemented the faster the boats stop.
