THE stark reality of voters thinking of switching their allegiance to Nigel Farage is that they will put everything they "care about" at risk, Rishi Sunak has warned.
Firmly laying out the clear choice facing Conservatives who might be swayed by the new Reform leader's dramatic late entry into the election campaign, the PM said: "One of two people is going to be Prime Minister on July 5 Keir Starmer or me.
"A vote for anyone who is not a Conservative just makes it more likely that Keir Starmer is going to end up in No10." Mr Sunak's warning came as another week of electioneering began with more bad news for the Tories. An MRP poll by YouGov suggests that Labour could win 422 seats to the Tories' 140, giving Sir Keir a Commons majority of 194.
Mr Sunak told the Daily Express progress on tackling the small boats crisis will be lost, punishing green penalties will hit hard-pressed families and taxes will rise if Labour win.
He stressed: "So for people who are considering who they want to vote for, think about the issues that you care about. If you care about stopping the boats and bringing down legal migration, who is more likely to do that? Because I've already got the boats down by a third.
"And I'm the one who's got people detained and flights ready to go to Rwanda in July. Keir Starmer is not going to do any of that. He's going to cancel those flights, release everyone and offer an amnesty. If you care about net zero and getting there in a way that prioritises our country's energy security and doesn't land families with thousands of pounds in extra costs, I'm the one who's going to deliver that, not Keir Starmer."
The Prime Minister added: "I've made the change on our approach to net zero, Keir Starmer is going to reverse those changes and ban North Sea oil it is going to be bad for our country's energy security and is going to put costs up for people.
