I’ve now watched pmqs, what an abject display by Sunak. He wasn’t being asked any questions that he shouldn’t have been very well prepared for but he had zero answers. And what was going on when Starmer was asking his 3rd question (I think) sunak was reading through his notes and didn’t even notice that starmer had finished his question and sat down. it took Rabb and somebody else to get him to stand up again.
I know nobody watches pmq’s but they will watch the election debates and on this showing sunak will be dreadful, not Truss bad, but still bad.
I think the attack line that sunak is to weak too stand up to bully’s or his party or the oil companies etc could get some traction.

They will have to listen to an hour of how Starmer supported the boogey man Corbyn

I’m not sure that much of an attack line, it just reminds people he isn’t even a Labour mp anymore and it was Starmer that kicked him out

Nicely played!!!

Yeh I don't get it but the Tory backbenches seem to lap it up

Sunak did invoke Corbyn last PMQs, was pretty lame then but looks utterly pathetic now.
Johnson had shit pre-prepared ‘witty’ lines that he’d desperately crowbar in totally out of context, Sunak hasn’t even got that minimal amount of preparation
-

He’s dragged up the Corbyn line in all of his pmq’s so far, it’s like the new, we got brexit done.

Tory voters too but not sure playing to a guaranteed audience is an election winner (or at least I hope it isn’t)

Do we think that Tory HQ will eventually try and spin this as "an end to Punch and Judy politics"? Paint themselves as the boring technocrats to get us out of the crisis (of their own making).

Given that Sunak presented Williamson’s resignation as proof of his (Sunak’s) integrity, I think that’s certainly a possibility.
We really are way down the rabbit hole, aren’t we.

Am just wondering, but ‘technocrats’?
This Tory fustercluck?
Struggling to see where any expertise, across any of the departments they acclaim to head, could be classified in that context -

Going to watch the slimy cunt on I'm a celeb now. Not sure it'll be good for my blood pressure.

Middle England seems to love austerity as long as someone less "deserving" appears to be getting fucked more. Hunt can portray himself as the parsimonious Chancellor, balancing the books, tough on "scroungers", stability in time of great global uncertainty, steady hand on the tiller etc etc
I don't think anyone is suggesting that this thread, forum or indeed city is going to be swayed by the pitch!

Surely “chaos under Keir Starmer” will get wheeled out soon, possibly adding in Sir to taint with being an out of touch north London establishment figure

Sir Kier-erring Cor-bins the UK into chaos

watch the election debates
I imagine not doing them may be viewed as the better option.

I think his inexperience is showing.
He's only been an MP since 2015 and a minister of any sort since 2018. He became Chancellor in a crisis when Javid quit in a row with Cummings when it was obvious they wanted a small beast to manipulate. Lucky for him there and again when Truss went but I honestly think he's been promoted to the level of his own incompetence, unluckly for us, but handy for Labour. -

same as Starmer

I suspect Starmer has a bit more experience of how the two Houses and Civil Service works, what with him being head of the CPS beforehand. Certainly moreso than having been at Goldman and various hedge funds
-
• #2399
Before that Starmer was a QC and DPP though which probably gave a bit more of a prep for this kind of thing than managing a hedge fund

One beautifully sweet thing about Sunak is Johnson brought him in as a yes man to give him absolute power...
...and not only did he help outst him, he took his job.
Fingers crossed he sires Carrie's next child.
Possible that if I read one more mewling, puking, gaslighting, breath-fart, hate-speech-brain-sodomy-masquerading-as-opinion from the ‘Home Secretary’ I will go postal
We did not vote for you Cowardman
Now fuck off
Thank you
Goodnight
