Just heard this on PMQ, not exactly sure what happened, so I may have my facts wrong. I'm going to follow this one

The "calm down" was to Yvette, followed by "most annoying person in modern politics" to Ed. But a lot of that stuff happens in politics often laughable softened with the words honorable lady/gentleman

it is PMQ's never the most edifying of exchanges, and we seldom get to hear the worst of it from the telly, quite a lot doe not reach our ears, it can be quite vile

I've only heard it on the radio, so I'm waiting to see the footage of it. If it's true, it's massively offensive.

If he said that he needs to fucking apologise NOW.

channeling Michael Winner - that'd be about Cameron's level of 'humour'

Cameron is an odious twat. Only surpassed by his little friend the chancellor.

He said it at least three times with a hand gesture. Seemed to be towards Balls.

I think it was to Ed Balls. He certainly got the most animated about it. Turned it off soon after I saw that as Cameron's smugness was getting to me.

Did he really say that?! I am shocked, that's patronising and disrespectful.

jetgirl · 27/04/2011 12:27

I understood it was to Ed Balls, but I'm listening not watching. Either way, he sounded like a patronising idiot.

I have it on too (am off sick).

Wasn't totally paying attention but from what I heard I was WTF [cshock] [cangry]?
