Of course he's a cunt, but right now he's in the right, whatever his motive is. So yeah, he is holding him to account.

Whatever his motive is? It's for personal gain.

He'll flip to a different position next week.

He's got a long history of being a contrarian who switches sides/opinons/allegiance to make himself look good, so I don't care one bit about what comes out of his mouth.

But each to their own.

I'm not denying his cuntdentials, but this is all stuff Keir Starmer should be doing during PMQs. Has he said anything about Hancock telling one of his MPs to watch their tone in the commons the other day yet? 

[tiger_rick]

Morgan is doing a remarkably good job, for whatever reason. Unfair on Starmer though. He's saying the right things, asking the right questions and is very authoritative at PMQs. He doesn't have a daily audience of millions though. It's not a realistic comparison.

All you need to do to outfox the PM is be articulate, though. Plus it's not hard to ask the right questions. I just feel like they're getting an easier ride with Starmer than they did with Corbyn. 

[tiger_rick]

Let's be honest, nobody gives a fuck what Starmer has to say. People will judge on Newspapers, TV personalities, "celebrities" and social media before the leader of the opposition. And none of that even matters. This whole thing has been a shit show for weeks. And there are still millions of voters who think they're doing their best and their approval rating reflects it. Too many people either don't care or don't think. And those people, by and large, are not going to be affected by Keir Starmer until he's promising to fill their pockets.

PMQs means fuck all in the grand scheme of things. Hague used to rinse Blair regularly, proper took him to the fackin cleaners but it didn’t translate into votes.

Main news I'm waiting for is when I can go meet for my new job, it will be mainly working from home within advertising but they want to meet before signing the contract, so playing the waiting game atm and nit sure how or when this can happen. I'm assuming it's best to aim for beginning of June?

[Jazzy G]

This is true. I guess we have to see what happens when this is all over. 

[SuperBacon]

Those sign language interpreter's are really earning their crust at the moment.  Some of their perplexing looks as the "experts" rattle on are bloody great.

The interpreter for this will just be signing somebody licking a boot for 10 minutes, I assume.

I think once Johnson has his cheerleaders back in the chamber  braying like a fag has dropped the crumpet that’s was toasting betwixt his buttocks in the prefects study, it won’t matter a jot how “Forensic” you are. People are arseholes, I can’t see them remembering this shitshow a year from now or when voting starts.

Whilst this is true, Hague wasn't electable and his personality appealed to very few. With Starmer, I think he's got the appeal and if he can team this with a forthright and strong oposition, it would translate to votes.

Easy to do a Hague impression though. And fun too.

I can't do Starmers voice as well.

The death toll will be spun into how many fewer people are claiming benefits and relying on state pensions.
