As the Tories suffer two crushing by-election losses and Oliver Dowden resigns, mark this a good morning for Britain. In a special by-election emergencycast, Ros Taylor and Ian Dunt discuss the fallout from a disastrous night for the Conservatives, what next for Johnson’s leadership, and if Labour and the Lib Dems have finally worked out how to defeat the Tories.
- “Dowden doesn’t have any honour whatsoever, it’s very good that he’s resigned.” - Ian Dunt
- “The worse things are at home, the more time Johnson spends overseas” - Ros Taylor
- “If the Tories are threatened with extinction, they will find the necessary changes to get rid of the problem.” - Ian Dunt
- “What we’re seeing is a deal between Starmer and Davey, and voters reading the signals.” - Ian Dunt
- “If the Conservatives change their leader, they can win the next election.” - Ian Dunt
Presented by Ros Taylor with Ian Dunt. Group Editor: Andrew Harrison. Lead Producer: Jacob Jarvis. Producers: Jacob Archbold, Jelena Sofronijevic and Alex Rees. Audio production by Robin Leeburn. OH GOD, WHAT NOW? is a Podmasters production.
