    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.

Food stamps, housing project, free school lunch...the whole thing. But I had a mind and I had a heart and I had dreams of doing better. I would have much preferred to folks talk to me as a person with a future rather than look on me with pity. I'm doing much better for myself and that didn't start until I realized that I wasn't poor. I wasn't a poor person. I just didn't have a lot of money at the moment. HUGE difference. I don't know much about this Prime Minister but folks should look up Chris Gardner who wrote the book The Pursuit of Happyness. A smart man who became quite a success in the world of finance who was, at one point in his life, very much homeless with his small son.

    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.

    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.
