I think I see it.

Not unless you live in a Mills and Boons novel where two people who are the polar opposites hate each other until they suddenly fall into bed together and get married for life.

Yes, I picked up on that too. Definite smouldering between them.

Raab, like many of his ilk, struggles to relate to women of his own age or younger in a non-sexual way. Raynor has been dealing with this crap for her entire life and knows that challenging it will be more damaging to her than ignoring it (as we’ve all learned).

Hotpotatotoe · 17/11/2022 00:48

Have you seen her partner?

I agree with this. I used to get men at work doing this crap when I was young. I bloody hated it. But it is hard to challenge.

I'm assured by my DP that Raynor has a very certain sex appeal.

I can see them crawling towards each other over the dispatch boxes and shoving the papers and the mace to one side in their earthy desire to get to each other. Sparks fly whenever they glance at each other. Its lurve, I tell you, luuurve. 💋

She's got long hair and tits therefore she must be a sexual object of desire. I'm sick of this shit every time a woman tries to just do her job.

They are both attractive aren't they? However I think he is quite happily married though.

He fancies her and thinks she fancies him.

She thinks he’s a twat.

This is what I think too.

Just googled, she looks nice. The idea AR is an attraction is probably made up.

I thought the wink was absolutely horrific . Such a patronising, sexist put down. I was amazed more wasn't made of it at the time.

TortugaRumCakeQueen · 17/11/2022 11:31

I think they are both really attractive actually. I could imagine sparks flying after all of that shouting at one another. Maybe it's just me!

When I saw their interactions, my first thought was that they probably get on quite well together in the bar afterwards, but have to become adversaries when in the House of Commons.
I don't think she would fancy him. She's very attractive whereas he's ... not.

Sam Tarry? I would.

Sam Tarry? I would.

Exactly. Young, fit, much better politics. Decent chap

Jonad · 17/11/2022 21:27

Isn’t there a bit of a question mark around Sam Tarry’s selection to be an MP?

Abhannmor · 18/11/2022 06:04

Sam is on Mr Starmers naughty step after he joined an RMT picket line .

Trade Unions are just meant to pay for the Labour Party and not get any support in return you see.
