Truly bizarre question on R4: “Why don’t you trust the British people through their elected representatives, to have decent workers’ rights? Why do they have to come from abroad?” John McDonnell, audibly exasperated: “I don’t trust *Boris Johnson* and the Conservatives.”

Why aren't the Labour Party willing to risk workers' rights being eroded even for a temporary period? If only something in their history, or even name, could give us a clue.

That'd be a fricking weird question, even if Johnson had won a GE to become PM. I'm wondering about registering a complaint, the framing is so incredibly partisan.

It seemed like a tortuous attempt to put a nationalist slant one a question on workers' rights.

@r4today has been told to sell the deal to Labour mps. Trying to make it sound reasonable and as though lots of them are seriously considering voting for it.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Why don't we trust the British people to elect at some unspecified future date a govt that won't illegally sell weapons to Saudi Arabia to explode school buses in Yemen? Why do we hate Britain so much?

Webb is a dodgy, anti trans, 'genuine concerns' right winger, ready to be slotted into the Humphrys shaped hole. Incredibly focused his perception of insidious movements within universities. Very worrying character to be helming a flagship programme. Believes he's a Liberal too.
