Yvette Cooper came under heavy fire during a tense appearance on Nick Ferrari at Breakfast on LBC, as frustrated listeners accused her of dodging questions and speaking in a “condescending” tone. The Home Secretary was on the show to discuss the Government’s new plans to stop foreign s*x offenders from claiming asylum — but many felt she left more questions than answers.
Callers and texters flooded the programme with criticism, with Ferrari reading out message after message from fed-up listeners. One asked, “Is it me, or does Yvette Cooper avoid answering just about every question? She’s exactly why the electorate doesn’t trust politicians.” Another added: “Ms Cooper does not think, we the public, are entitled to know what the people we elect think”, reported the Express.
