How to watch our election showdown
WATCH Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer face the questions YOU care about on our Never Mind The Ballots Election Showdown tonight.
Political Editor Harry Cole will grill the PM first before taking on the Labour Leader in the clash.
You can watch live on thesun.co.uk, our YouTube channel and on our social media accounts.
“If a politician doesn’t tell you what they’ll do, it’s probably because you won’t like it.
“We’ve heard from the audience about the challenges of bills – that’s why I’m fighting hard.”
Both Rishi and Keir are facing the questions YOU care about on the Never Mind The Ballots Election Showdown.
The back-to-back interviews are among the final chances for both sides to set out their stalls and defend their manifesto pledges.
Tonight’s clash comes after Rishi’s hopes of the betting scandal dying down were shattered.
Yesterday the Gambling Commission fingered another top Tory for allegedly putting a flutter on the timing of the General Election.
The party’s chief data officer Nick Mason became the fourth Tory probed by the watchdog.
It is also understood the commission has widened its inquiries to investigate whether party insiders used third parties to place bets.
Sources claim the Gambling commission has identified more persons of interest.
Mason, Tory official Tony Lee and candidates Craig Williams and Laura Saunders are already under investigation.
The latter pair are still on the election campaign trail as official Tory parliamentary hopefuls, while Mason and Lee are on leave.
Shadow Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson told the BBC there was “genuine disgust” among voters over the allegations.
Meanwhile, the Lib Dems called on Mr Sunak to intervene personally, by ordering a Cabinet Office inquiry into the reports.
A spokesman for the Gambling Commission said: “This is an ongoing investigation and we cannot provide any further details at this time.”
