Is there a sexual frisson between Angela Rayner and Dominic Raab?

I think I see it.

Well that would be fun. What have you noticed that makes you think that?

She fancies the pants off him. He's scorching her with his eyes. Yeah. Lust on the Font Benches. 😂

No. That's pure contempt.

I have no idea. The concept is repulsive but somehow just.

There is a weird kind of chemistry there but I think it's probably mutual loathing.

It was The Wink that started the idea of it this. I think they probably get on quite well in person.

Well that’s put me right off my lunch

I would say definitely, but I bet it would burn out pretty fast if they ever took it further.

The mutual loathing is the whole point!

This made me laugh so much I went to AO3 to check if anyone had written fanfic about UK politicians and it turns out there's a 9,000 word, explicit, fic about Theresa May and her husband. There's also a 3,300 one shipping Boris Johnson and Theresa May and the tags include 'femdom' and 'verbal humiliation'. I fucking love the internet.

(If none of what I wrote makes sense to you, that's a good thing. 😂)

that’s, erm, niche...

It's a slight smirk from both of them sometimes, and yes of course there was that wink a while ago.

That reminds me that I read something about people shipping Liz Truss and Priti Patel. Any 'Priz'/'Liti' compositions on there?

He fancies her and thinks she fancies him.

She thinks he’s a twat.

Angela Rayner? Oooh noooo!

Gives a whole new terror to cabinet reshuffling.

Why does everyone project sexual fantasies onto this person?

is she going to be forever mischaracterised the 21st century Jezebel…where buttoned up, pearl clutching women can claim she’s horny for everyone and everything just because she had a child when she was young?

Embarrassing @TortugaRumCakeQueen

😂

There have been threads where people have lusted over Gove and Hancock and Johnson. I suspect this thread derived from some strange fellow feeling rather than Rayner hate.

He’s quite good looking in an evil supervillain way.

Rule 34 and all that... !

Ffs it would be really nice if Angela Raynor could be allowed to do her job without people constantly analysing whether she’s flirting / dressing sexily etc etc.

So. SEXIST.

No, no

there’s a difference between personal projection of lust (“I think X politician is sexy”)

and continuously supposing that someone in the front bench of a party is flirting all the time

its been said about her with Boris Johnson, remember?

I don’t imagine anyone saying similar about Rachel Reeves’ conduct, or any other Labour female who sits at front bench in PMQs

Rayner gets it , I know why, but everyone on here will pretend otherwise to save being told.

THIS - exactly!!

How on earth can any one fancy Rayner LOL

Why's that then? Lol.
