Anyone watching?

Rishi is on a loser because he is tainted by association with Boris Johnson. Plus being the richest man on the planet (or whatever he is) is a bad look.

Liz is just awful in myriad ways.

And the woman chairing it ought to have worn a neutral colour. A man wouldn't have got away with wearing a bright red suit.

Brexit is shit. Lockdown was shit. The Johnson cabinet was a disgrace (and not because of lockdown parties, as I had them too so I don't care about that).

I despair.

Rishi just said being prime minister is about being honest.

How exactly did be work so closely with BJ for so long.

bullshit.

carefullycourageous · 25/07/2022 21:21

I'd forgotten so just joined in! Is brilliant. Bet Starmer is watching with a big smile.

OneFrenchEgg · 25/07/2022 21:22

Except the party want bloody BJ back - probably hope RS will let him have a job

He likes the sound of his own voice. He is so shouty.

KezzabellaB · 25/07/2022 21:22

I just wish Rishi Sunak would stop interrupting. Rude cunt.

MarshaBradyo · 25/07/2022 21:23

I can’t believe he’s killing his own campaign by being so rude

SpindleInTheWind · 25/07/2022 21:23

Sophie needs to switch his bloody mic off if he carries on like this. Rude fucker.

Solasum · 25/07/2022 21:23

What a rubbish moderator

Westfacing · 25/07/2022 21:23

Truss has ducked out of the Andrew Neil interview - Sunak going ahead.

Remember how Bozo ducked that one, and Corbyn went ahead

OneFrenchEgg · 25/07/2022 21:23

Rishi reminds me of how PA thought he'd done a brilliant job on Newsnight 😂 no self awareness. I bet he thinks he's coming across as assertive and honest whereas he is like the bullish public school boss who never lets the juniors speak in meetings.

hotdogsjumpingfrogs · 25/07/2022 21:24

Shut the duck up Sunak!

But Truss doing her 'miss, miss, it's my turn' face is also annoying

Blossomtoes · 25/07/2022 21:24

Rishi is on a loser because he is tainted by association with Boris Johnson.

They were both in the cabinet. At least he resigned, she didn’t.

7eleven · 25/07/2022 21:24

This is becoming almost unwatchable as Sunak is interrupting so much. He’s a smug bastard who thinks he’s got it in the bag.

BaconAndAvocado · 25/07/2022 21:26

Omg will Sunak stop interrupting !!!

I’m finding it excruciating to watch 2 women being continually interrupted.

What an arrogant arsehole.

Wynona · 25/07/2022 21:27

Goodness did he not practice debating? Imagine how he will be as PM when he needs to listen to alternative views? I want to hear from Truss.

OneFrenchEgg · 25/07/2022 21:27

'I want to see the two of you talking together' - nice bit of marriage counselling there

Jux · 25/07/2022 21:27

He's a bulldozer. Heaven help us if he wins.

Doesn't listen, esp to women, doesn't speak to anyone just delivers a lecture, and just rolls over the women as if they're not there. Sick of it. I lasted longer than it deserves, through sheer grim determination

peppapigoverandoveragain · 25/07/2022 21:27

This is painful to watch. She's not able to convey a message well and she gets flustered when challenged. He's the opposite where he is too aggressive. If he calmed down a bit and wasn't interrupting he'd come across better.

Sporty2022 · 25/07/2022 21:27

Sunak was also given a fixed penalty notice after being investigated by the police.
And he’s on about honesty..

Westfacing · 25/07/2022 21:27

Low tax investment zones?

Marcipex · 25/07/2022 21:28

jeez they are both awful.
Truss has just called Faisal Islam ‘Faysal’

peppapigoverandoveragain · 25/07/2022 21:28

Completely committed to making sure she screws us all over as soon as she gets in. Confused

GreenLunchBox · 25/07/2022 21:29

Trump was more polite than Sunak in his debate Confused

I'm not a fan of Truss AT ALL, but Sunak is losing this for himself by being such a smug, aggressive, arrogant ARSE

Apparently his mum is a chemist. He's not mentioned that before 🙄🤔
