I watched the whole Sunak GBeebies thing.
That part that upset me the most was when a pharmacist working in a mental healthcare setting asked what Sunak was going to do to help her patients.
Obviously as soon as he heard the word pharmacist he trotted out the stuff about his mum and how he helped in the pharmacy etc. Then he went on to promote this initiative:
https://www.england.nhs.uk/2024/01/over-10000-nhs-pharmacies-begin-treating-people-for-common-conditions/#:~:text=Highly%20trained%20pharmacists%20will%20be,a%20GP%20appointment%20or%20prescription.
and on and on and ON...
That was it. No mention of improving mental health services. Either he didn't listen to the question properly or he did but just decided not to answer it.
At the start of the hour everyone was stony faced and Sunak got zero applause. By the end he was getting applause, but I wondered if there was someone frantically signalling to the audience to do so.
He kept doing this odd, bouncy thing. Like Zebedee in half mast trousers.
