Sunak vs Truss - Leaders debate

[cakeorwine]

Anyone watching?

So Alan Partridge.

Come on Rishi you acted out of self interest not principle.

Sunak keeps trying to be more collaborative, Truss totally not having it.

She’s just cooked her goose supporting Johnson.

@OneFrenchEgg welcome to capitalism?
In response to how can energy companies be making record breaking profits.

I think we can probably shout HOUSE! at this point 🙄

Yes I get that it's just never usually been this out of kilter.

Listen to it!

He made mistakes, he admitted he made mistakes...

No he didn't!

She is insufferable

Not with the Tory membership though? They still love him apparently.

Truss still can't see what an arse Johbson is.
She has shite judgement.

What did he say?

Some of them. The Tory party member I’m watching this with doesn’t. Or either of these two.

Something about schools?

Depends how many still back Johnson

party membership different to electorate

How is Sunak going to deal reasonably with world leaders, some of whom are grim, when he can't even have a rational discussion with someone whose side he is meant to be on politically?

But to be fair, who could have a rational discussion with Liz Truss? He’s probably banking on (most) world leaders being a couple of notches higher, intellectually speaking.

Truss gets very nasally when she's rattled

She just wants the support of pro-Johnson Tories.

Did Rishi comes from humble beginnings it’s hard to tell? 🙄

Not too long to go..will they be trying to drown each out at the end?

Ooh, that's the first time I've heard them say 'deliver' today

His humble beginnings are the fact that his parents had humble beginnings 🙄

I think Liz is being more measured and less slimy than Rishi. As she has said herself, she might not be the slickest, but she seems more genuine. I think if she becomes PM she will find her feet quickly.

Wow. They actually agreed on stuff in the quick fire questions

He inherited humble beginnings

Giving Boris 10/10 got claps. Who are these people?

On each other’s teams fair enough
