    The more realistic part of this video is that you need a decent job if you want to have a happy conversation with people that are successful. If you can't support yourself financially, then questions like "do you work in a business", "there are jobs all over the country" and "what is your plan for the weekend" could feel like torturing to you.

      It's because he completely ignored what the guy said and just went with his script as his questions make zero sense. It's a bit insensitive to ask a homeless guy what his plans on the weekend as most people with the slightest bit of empathy know that's not entirely appropriate or if he's in business? Even if he was in business prior to becoming homeless then we can wager it's not something he'd like to be reminded of.

    As a leftist, I'm actually a bit confused by all this. I can't catch every word, but I think that the homeless man is the first one to use the word "business". So Sunak rightly leads on from that reference to develop the theme. What on Earth was Sunak supposed to have said? When the guy being served talked about business, should Sunak really have said "Of course, you're homeless so you don't know anything about business, do you?" Surely that would have been far worse. The business topic was the homeless person's choice. Again, I'm absolutely a leftist and my votes have been usually Labour, and only occasionally Lib Dem, and I would never dream of voting Tory. I just can't understand how this video becomes an anti-Sunak point.

    Rishi is out of touch clearly and the man was probably a little taken back.
    What I would of done though, is asked him for a job when he said are you interested? (Even though was only lip service) not sure if the man knew who Rishi was or that he was on TV, but if so I would of put him on the spot and said please help me with whatever I have to do get on my feet to be able to have a place registered for work and some advice to get into finance. He’s speaking to one of the highest level people in the country and comes from that background in finance.

    I dont see why he is getting slammed he is just having a normal conversation with him coming to the same level without letting him feel he is homeless not pitying him for it that is why the talked about with him as well if he would have pitied i dont think the guy would have talked that much

    I dont know . The conversation is civilised and well-mannered. The homeless man is well-spoken and sounds like he’s actually reasonably well educated and probably from a decent bg. Probably just circumstances. Rishi was polite and didnt sound judgemental at all.
