Labour Leader Sir Keir Starmer has openly challenged Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, urging him to set a date for the upcoming general election. Starmer's call to action includes a readiness to engage in election TV debates, with the phrase 'bring it on' highlighting Labour's preparedness for the electoral battle. He has questioned Sunak's reluctance to schedule the election, suggesting that the Prime Minister might be 'hiding' something from the public. Starmer criticized Sunak for 'squatting for months and months' in No 10 Downing Street, implying that the Prime Minister intends to remain in office without confirming an election date, which could lead to an extended period without a vote. The issue was discussed on television channels Sky 501 and Virgin 602.
