Rishi Sunak has faced criticism from the Labour Party for deciding not to hold a general election on May 2, the same day as local elections in England. Labour representatives, including @patmcfaddenmp, @JoStevensLabour, @elliereeves, and @StephenMorganMP, have accused Sunak of 'squatting in Downing Street' and urged him to give the country a chance for change with a Labour government. The criticism comes amid Labour leading the polls by approximately 20 points over the Conservatives. Labour's deputy national campaign coordinator, Ellie Reeves, highlighted the public's desire for an election after 14 years of Conservative governance, calling Sunak an 'unelected Prime Minister' and accusing him of running scared.
