Vincent McAviney: British PM expected to lose half his councillors across England and Wales

Early Edition on Newstalk ZB

UK Correspondent Vincent McAviney brings us the latest on the UK local elections and from London’s fatal sword attack.

McAviney told Mike Hosking “If things are really bad for the Prime Minister, it could see a mutiny on his back benches.”

McAviney said Rishi Sunak is expected to lose around half of their councillors in England and Wales.

McAviney says the only thing that might stop his party from replacing him is that the British public don't want a sixth conservative Prime Minister in fourteen years.

In other news, a man has been charged with murder for the sword attack on a fourteen-year-old boy.
