to be just loving PMQs at the moment

No loud cheers or yelling.
Detailed questions

And Matt Hancock being told off and threatened with ejection was just the best thing ever.

Kier is amazing especially compared to Jezza. He actually follows up on BJ’s answers. He remains calm, doesn’t get riled, asks detailed specific questions. BJ just cannot answer and his bluffing and buffoonery seems so much worse when compared with his opponent.

The difference is Starmer has earned everything he has and had to work hard to get where he is. Johnson has never worked hard in his life.

I went to a talk that Starmer gave before he became leader of the Labour party. He was eloquent. That's why I voted for him.

And, for the thigh rubbers, I was front row and about a metre away from him.

It's repeated on BBC Parliament later on - about 11pm I think.

Competent opposition is just such a relief!

Thigh rubbing here too! First crush I’ve had in aaaaaaages

It's frustrating it was only a 30 sec clip on Channel 4 news.

Boris on Portugal. Think he was very good and you are being unnecessarily cruel.

oh god serenada that brings back memories of his Burma incident. The fremdschamen is unbearable

Hahaha What a tit. And he somehow wrote a book about Churchill?

You should see Reese mogg's cash in book about the victorians.

I've a friend who has got a book coming out in a week or so, about the Victorians. I'd bet it's miles better than Mogg's.

If you want let us know what it is and I might buy it, cat. Right into victoriana and the politics of that era atm.

It's called Sex and Sexuality in Victorian Britain.

You’re right @Cherryghost - Jeremy Vine did an excellent one: reaction.life/jeremy-vine-my-boris-story/

Is that the same story you were thinking of?

got some good advanced reviews (few monaing about it being short) so I'll get it in.

Even The Torygraph panned the Haunted Pencil’s book:

The Victorians by Jacob Rees-Mogg, review: this clichéd, lazy history often reads like it was written by a baboon

It’s like watching Columbo up against a particularity inept criminal. Just one more thing...

More importantly, we are finally seeing the start of real democracy, where the government are being held to account, and where we are getting commitments from Johnson over testing thanks to the questioning - Johnson has now said publicly that testing will increase and is accountable. Regardless of party, this is democracy and it’s making change happen. It’s really quite exciting, and very much needed.

@Purplegloves

That's a very illuminating article.

Purple gloves yes that's the story I was thinking of.
Don't know how he gets away with doing this same act

Give it half an hour and someone will be along to tell us that he's a hero and doing his best.

Boris should understand that when a QC says “I am surprised to hear that ...” you are usually about to get kippered!

What is it they say about lawyers? “Never ask a question you don’t know the answer to”?
