WATCH: Keir Starmer SNAPS at audience for LAUGHING at his 'Dad was a toolmaker' line

also noticed something else tonight yeah you're right as prime time for rocketer we're going to we're going to change tack a little bit here because earlier tonight uh Kia starm during his interview his leadership interview used a very similar line you might have heard this line a few times before but it didn't quite go the way you'd expect so take a look at this this is earlier today when I grew up my dad was a tool maker he worked in a factory it's true my mom was a nurse and actually we couldn't make ends meet goodness me that was an audience reaction there earlier today yeah laughing at kstar yeah it didn't go so well as I say this is a line the reason they're laughing is because this line is used repeatedly over and over he must until he's blew in the face in fact to prove the point I think we can we've got a little Montage here to show you just how many times this line has been used and why he's now he's being derided for it take a look at this my dad was a toolmaker my dad was a tool maker he was skilled as a tool maker highly skilled and your dad I think it's right to say was a toolmaker he was a toolmaker yeah dad was a tool maker my dad was a tool maker my dad he was a tool maker my dad was a tool maker my dad was a tool maker dad was a tool maker mom was a nurse Adam was K st's dad a tool maker I I I think we need some clarity on the issue we need to speak to the labor party to make sure we understand that clearly no the the reality is I don't think you can get away with saying this line again it's just it's been D driven into the ground and it just goes to show that he struggles with this sort of thing he's very rehearsed he's very robotic he's finally been caught out on that one if he was against anyone other than rishy suak perhaps we'd be talking about the labor gaffs in this election perhaps it would seem a bit Theresa May like a bit robotic a bit stilted in the way that it comes across but I suppose his great benefit here is he's up against a government that's been in power for a long time a global economy that's hit the rocks in the wake of a war and a pandemic I mean he's a very very lucky campaigner he's a lucky leader of the opposition yeah but for all of the reasons why he's a lucky leader of the opposition he might be an unlucky prime minister yeah his his support is Broad but shallow as many have said already but you you can tell just by looking at the polling on his personal polling he personally is not a particularly popular politician yeah the labor party as we've already discussed this evening are Miles Ahead uh than over the conservatives but him personally he may struggle once he's in to control the party no really really interest interesting stuff I noticed in the most recent yugov poll uh that showed that 20-point lead as it has been that 20po lead for months after months after month that lead comes about from a very low conservative figure K starm is actually getting a lower share of the vote currently and that latest OV poll lower than Boris Johnson got in 2019 for the conservatives interesting stuff well thank you Adam Cherry for bringing us all of that
