Watch the moment GB News star Martin Daubney is left crestfallen as Sunderland locals make their feelings clear about the state of Britain.
Martin was in the north eastern city to mark 12 months since violence erupted on its streets in the wake of the Southport killings.
He spoke to a group of women who feel things have not changed for the better since.
“The Labour Government has lied, lied, lied and is still lying”, one said.

“I’m sorry. I went from a Labour supporter who used to deliver letters for Bridget Phillipson to Reform UK. As far as I’m concerned, put veterans first, not immigrants.
“My grandad was a Labour councillor. Thank God he’s not here to see what’s happening to this country.
“We need Nigel Farage to be in power to be the Prime Minister.”
Another local added: “JD Vance said we’re committing societal suicide and I completely and utterly agree.

|One local told Martin Daubney Britain is 'going to hell in a handcart'
“As a born again Christian, I believe that’s our foundation and we need to concentrate on it. Without that fundamental foundation, everyone thinks everyone is selfish and there is no filter.
“It’s chaos. What we see out there is chaos. That’s how I feel about this city and all of our cities.
“Chris Rea once said we’re going to hell in a handcart, and he was right.”
Martin was visibly choked up by the passionate sentiments being put forward.

“I just think about my daughter”, one of the locals continued.
“I was thinking about next door neighbour’s daughter. Nowhere feels safe. I shouldn’t have to be in the house at 6pm because I don’t feel safe.”
Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner said last month that Britain can expect more civil unrest unless “the Government shows it can address people’s concerns”.
Her dramatic intervention came in the final cabinet meeting before the summer recess where she warned economic insecurity, immigration, more time being spent online and declining trust in institutions was driving a “profound impact on society”.
The Labour Government is looking to stave off future riots by investing in a “Plan for Neighbourhoods”.
Around £1.5bn will be invested across 75 towns to give people “real improvements they can see on their doorsteps and in their communities”.
Downing Street has said that investing in the “most deprived areas” will see pride restored in local areas.
