He looks like a hostage that’s been told to read off a script and pretend everything is okay or else he’ll be executed.

Fuck sake I’m almost feeling sorry for the bloke at this point, he’s that much of a useless soggy sack of spunk.

Rishi Sunak says he has not considered resigning as PM

The PM says he will not stop fighting for votes, after being criticised for leaving a D-Day event early.

he's a disaster and knows it but I think now he is being held hostage by his party because no-one wants to own the disastrous defeat and anyway would they fare better with Dowdon of Mordaunt at the helm?

It’s such a low, low, low bar (insert that clip from the Thick of It where Malcolm Tucker says he’s never really heard of Nicola Murray) that I don’t think Penny Mourdant is quite mentally deranged enough to get the top job.

Reform UK candidate apologises over Hitler neutrality comments

Ian Gribbin says his grandparents were "Russian Jews fleeing persecution" and his comments were taken out of context.

Just so we’re keeping track:
> Sunak leaves D-Day commemoration early and gets criticised
> The next day Farage says Sunak “isn’t a patriot” because of his actions
> A few days later it turns out members of Farage’s own party don’t think we should have even been fighting the Nazis in the first place

Amazing how Reform always find a way to go lower. It’s almost an accomplishment.

That candidate should fit right in with Reform as long as Farage is the leader.

Reform backed the comment about neutrality v Hitler.

I would suggest less than a Liverpool based criminal barrister.
