Just over 2 weeks to go

But if he is that tetchy in public, what must he be like at home when he doesn't get his way?

Isn't Mrs Sunak the Big Money in the household ?

I suspect he does as he is damn well told. May explain why he takes it out on others when he is outside the home ?

Exactly. I imagine Mrs Sunak is counting the days until 4 July.

I was all a bit Spinal Tap wasn't it ?

"They were still booing him when we came on ..."

"

Me too

I think there should be a tax, not a discount on self service tills. Putting people out of a job.

There's been a fair amount of speculation on MN about the quality of Sunak's campaign. How can it be so awful? What's going on? He looks completely ill at ease? Now we find his Campaign Director has been hanging out at the bookies. Maybe Rishi has been taking his advice after all? "Yes, PM, go out in the rain and get pissed through, you'll look manly and determined". "Yes PM, tv interviews are very important, far more important than a bunch of Euro politicians. Definitely leave early, nobody will notice". I'd love to see the details of any bets he's made.

Excellent point. He probably put a substantial sum on a Labour victory when the odds were worth a punt.

14 years of grift sums it up perfectly!

err i didn't even suggest that! you made that up....

My point is that if MPs feel another party represents their views better than their current one, they often leave.

Rosie Duffield doesn't feel this way, therefore i would suggest that whilst she and KS may not see eye to eye, generally speaking, she supports Labour and thats good enough for me.

Do you expect KS to keep mentioning all MPs who get death threats?

Don't know about using the death of a girl to score points, you'll have to elaborate? who? KS or ED ?

Thank you for kind thoughts re me & my exit poll nerves 😀

So impressed by your ds @itsgettingweird

@BIossomtoes at the risk of you thinking "blooming' cheek! She should have watched it herself!" 😬, what was the bit where Starmer was asked to move away from the audience? And what was the significance please?

I'm not a massive fan of trying to push stones uphill. It's inefficient at best.

Let's get rid of computers and go back to pen and paper at the same time ? That would really bump up jobs available. So would digging roads by hand rather than using this new fangled "machinery" they do nowadays.

Sorry, my shoes are staying sur mes pieds, merci bien.

I don't know any 18 year olds with a driving licence at the moment.

And given where we are a lot of 18 year olds will be living at home with their money going straight to their parents with no bank account. Or it certainly would if Shit for Brains Sunaks plan ever came to fruition. Although for now I am filing it under "Switzerland invades UK" in the likelihood stakes. Which is a small chance, but still greater than finding a non grifting Tory.

This is what I've been wondering. Has he bet on biggest Tory defeat ever?

Is it his version of 'you are grounded and no pocket money this week"?

Anyone else starting to see similarities between "dire warning" Putin, and "dire warning Rish!" ?

I've seen "similarities" and evidence of finance between the Conservatives and Russia for ages. Get called a conspiracy theorist for it quite often 😂

There is a great podcast called Londongrad about it, which is well worth a listen.

I’m sorry I honestly can’t remember the context, probably because it was the fact that Fiona Bruce made him step back that really struck me. It was one of those “Oh, he really gets this” moments. I didn’t mind you asking at all but it might be worth checking out the Starmer segment so you can see what you think. I might watch it again.

He was moving off his spot to get closer to the audience and particularly the people whose questions he was answering. It came across as very genuine and relaxed but fiona had to ask him to move back

Full video here. I've been spamming the GE board with Rishi being petulant at around 1.54.02

Two things :

Keir did mention Jo Cox. Not clear whether he was meant to or not.

It was Rishi who weaponised trans people by making a joke about them wile Brianna's mum was in the HoC. That is what is disgusting and I want KS to mention that over and over and over again. I have never been so disgusted,

You two must have been in Derwent!! All The Sloanes were there. I was Vanbrugh.

York has, by the by, always had just about the best stats for state school admissions of any of the 'top' universities.

Thank you @BIossomtoes and @CassieMaddox

My postal vote has just arrived, whoop whoop! It'll be back in the post box within the hour!

I was in Wentworth but you’re right about Derwent - you couldn’t move for piecrust collars in the Derwent bar in the mid 80s. 😂

Welsh Conservatives are launching their manifesto today.

Rishi Sunak: "If Labour get in, they will change the rules so it's much harder to ever get them out... they will change every rule to make sure they keep power."
