Sunak was also told many voters did not believe he was able to “emotionally connect” with ordinary people.“I have done a lot of things in this job but being here is probably on the more intimidating end,” he said.Presenter Janet Street-Porter told him: “You were quite smiley earlier, weren’t you? Will you be smiling in five minutes.”
As the audience applauded, Street-Porter added: “That’s the only conclusion I can come to as a result of the spring Budget. So you lowered the National Insurance by 4 pence - big deal, pensioners don’t pay it.“Then you froze the tax thresholds. So yes you gave us more pension, but that leaves a gap of only £1,000 if you get the basic, average pension, to the threshold of paying tax.
“People are suffering right now,” she said. “What is happening now is we are losing kids to poverty in the UK.”
