He called the PM a liar.

Starlightstarbright1 · 31/01/2022 15:56

Oh just answered thank you

whatkatydid2013 · 31/01/2022 15:56

Of course it wasn’t inadvertently. Good on him for not backing down

Seeingadistance · 31/01/2022 15:56

I think Ian Blackford has left voluntarily.

@Starlightstarbright1

What did leader of snp say that needs to be withdrawn?
He said the PM misled the British public by saying no parties.

The speaker wanted him to say ‘inadvertently misled’

He refused. Good on him.

Blackford was impressive.

ilovesooty · 31/01/2022 15:57

No he's still there.

ChristmasPlanning · 31/01/2022 15:57

He's Teflon. It's infuriating

ladygindiva · 31/01/2022 15:58

I'm interested in any conservative voters feelings about this absolute state of a man leading their party?

ilovesooty · 31/01/2022 15:58

Oh he's gone.

ChristmasPlanning · 31/01/2022 15:58

Boris is a liar. We all know it

Isntisironic1 · 31/01/2022 15:58

I’m with Ian blackford! Boris did mislead! Why should he retract!

WildRosie · 31/01/2022 16:00

Ian Blackford wasn't letting go. I'd like to see him and the Prime Minister step outside the Palace of Westminster and sort out their differences the traditional way. My money would be on Mr Blackford.

Because you're not allowed to accuse someone in the House of lying even if everyone knows that they did. Hmm
BringBackCoffeeCreams · 31/01/2022 16:01

I wonder what report/details MPs have seen because I've just seen a clip of Emily Thorberry being interviewed just before parliament and she says furiously, 'He told us there were no parties and now we know that he attended 7 of them'. That isn't in the report released to the public.

WutheringHeights66 · 31/01/2022 16:01

Not this "the country wants us to get on with the job in hand" bullshit again.

Off with his head.

Disgusted. He doesn’t represent my party.

For the first time in a long long time I would not vote Cons.

He has to go.

FoamBurst · 31/01/2022 16:02

Is there anywhere I can watch this on a catch up . I missed it. We're watching bing :/

DrinkFeckArseGirls · 31/01/2022 16:02

Actually on that photo on BBC news he looked like he did brush his hair somewhat. Hmm
Will watch the whole thing later with a drink Wine

TonytheDog · 31/01/2022 16:04

Answer the bloody question!!!!

ilovesooty · 31/01/2022 16:04

Even some of his own MPs seem rather unhappy with him.

TonytheDog · 31/01/2022 16:04

Who's the bloke with the swanky hair?

BruceAndNosh · 31/01/2022 16:04

It's a long time since I yelled Fuck Off at the TV so frequently

RunningFromInsanity · 31/01/2022 16:04

@toomuchlaundry

Did he get kicked out?

I missed Theresa May's question

She said he either didn’t know the rules (that he made), didn’t understand them or deliberately flouted them. Which one.

He didn’t answer.

toomuchlaundry · 31/01/2022 16:06

Thank you @RunningFromInsanity.
