RISHI Sunak was savaged on the Tory betting scandal last night as both he and Sir Keir Starmer faced the wrath of voters in a TV grilling.
In his first remarks on the gambling row engulfing his party, the PM said: “When I found out, I was incredibly angry. Incredibly angry.
“If anyone has broken the rules they should face the full face of the law, and that’s what these investigations are there to do.”
Both wannabe PMs are fielding questions from a live BBC audience along with the Lib Dems’ Sir Ed Davey and the SNP’s John Swinney.
The Labour leader was pressed by the audience for supporting for his disastrous predecessor Jeremy Corbyn at the last two elections.
He insisted he never thought the left-winger would win – but it did not wash with much of the audience who at one point laughed.
And retorted: “Look, he would be a better prime minister… look what we got, we got Boris Johnson. I didn’t think we were in a position to win that election”.
Sir Keir also refused to put a number on the level of migration he wants to see – saying: “Every single politician who has put a number on it has never met that number.”
Both Mr Sunak and Sir Keir will be put through their paces by Sun readers in a live showdown next Monday.
