Rory Palmer, Labour’s challenger in the Bosworth constituency, was a guest panellist on BBC Radio 5 Live’s Up All Night political phone-in on Friday 12 February. The show, which is presented by Dotun Adebayo, gives listeners the chance to quiz candidates from each of the three main parties on the issues of the day. On the show Rory was up against Tory candidate for Camborne and Redruth and former David Cameron advisor George Eustice, and the Liberal Democrat candidate for Hammersmith in London, Merlene Emerson. Rory was able to speak up for the people of Bosworth and Hinckley and discuss national and issues.
Speaking after the show Rory Palmer said:
“It was good to be able to respond to Five Live listeners and to debate the big issues of the day with George and Merlene. We had the chance to debate issues including Europe, MP’s expenses, how to deal with terror suspects and the NHS. As we work to change politics in the country we need to see more good and honest debate between the parties and their candidates and Friday’s show was an example of that.”
