Mark Slapinski - Brian Lilley TURNS On Pierre Poilievre

00:00:00.000 Polyev, he's doing so badly that even Brian Lilly of the Toronto Sun is questioning his

00:00:04.560 ability to lead the Conservatives and become Prime Minister.

00:00:07.740 That I want Pierre Polyev to be our next Prime Minister, but I'm starting to question whether

00:00:12.140 he wants that. Why do I say it? Because he's not doing the things he needs to do to win.

00:00:17.780 Politics is about addition, not subtraction. Pierre is playing the subtraction game here.

00:00:24.360 You don't have to love Doug Ford. You don't have to be Doug Ford's best friend.

00:00:28.200 but when you need Ontario, you go to the guy who has won three majority governments in a place

00:00:35.060 that isn't kind to conservatives, and you say, how did it work for you? What can I learn from you

00:00:42.420 and apply to my team so that we win more seats in Quebec? Sorry, in Ontario, replying to me by

00:00:50.380 saying, well, look, elections aren't popularity contests. Yeah, they are. If you don't think

00:00:57.420 elections are popularity contests you don't understand elections to win the election the

00:01:02.960 local mp has to win the most votes for the party to win power they have to win the most seats

00:01:08.560 stop pointing out that uh poly have got more votes than any other leader before him

00:01:16.460 because the guy on the other team also did the same and he got more than polyev i want to point

00:01:22.680 out that lily is the co-founder of rebel news and a columnist for the toronto sun

00:01:27.400 He's about as right-wing as it gets, and even he's having doubts about Polyev's future.

00:01:33.300 Polyev continues to shoot himself in the feet, and he seems incapable of changing his ways.

00:01:38.780 He's literally a blessing for the liberals and a curse for the conservatives.
