Conservative party campaign begins with journalist being forcibly removed on live TV, according to Rishi Sunak.

The excitement was palpable at the ExCel Centre in London this evening as Rishi Sunak, the Tory candidate, began the launch of his election campaign. However, the event took a turn when Sky News' reporter, Darren McCaffrey, was removed from the building live on air. As the prime minister prepared to give his speech, McCaffrey and his crew were escorted out of the building, with security following them to ensure they didn't try to re-enter.

It seems that the reason for their removal was due to the event's "pool arrangements," which meant that footage from the event would be shared among different broadcasters. McCaffrey expressed his disappointment, stating that they had simply wanted access to the event. He also mentioned that it was unclear why they were not allowed in.

After the speech, a producer spoke to the Independent and revealed that they were told they could not enter because they were going live. However, this did not deter them from filming, and they were eventually allowed back in after the event had ended.

The scene outside the ExCel Centre was chaotic, with McCaffrey and his crew setting up outside the building while a large security guard kept a close eye on them. Inside, Sunak was relaunching his election campaign after a rainy start at Downing Street. The prime minister appeared excited as he refocused his message to an audience of activists and party loyalists.

Despite the weather and the loud music played by nearby activists, Sunak's mood was upbeat as he praised his government's record and criticized his opponents, particularly Sir Keir Starmer. He also took a dig at Labour's policies, stating that they would run out of money and enact a de facto amnesty for asylum-seekers, making the UK a magnet for illegal immigrants.

As the event came to an end, supporters cheered for Sunak while some members of his Cabinet looked more serious and nervous. Despite the unexpected turn of events with the removal of McCaffrey, the launch of Sunak's campaign was a success, and the prime minister seemed confident in his chances for re-election.
