How would you compel someone to answer a question honestly?
first you would have to be aware of the truthful answer and if thats already in the public domain it would kind of render the question needless in the first place. Given the issues around Johnson though you'd have thought he would sail nearer to the truth coz if Johnson is ruined by his lies then Sunak's answers will all come under deeper scruitiny
He could suggest to Sunak that he is there to answer the questions asked on a regular basis,not to go off on a tangent all the timeThats not the role of the speaker - he/she is there to see order is maintained he cannot force anyone to give a certain answer - mad innit?

Don't think I've ever seen Raab quite as flustered. When those two spar it is always rambunctious, but there was an unusual venom to Raynor's questioning today. It could be that she smelt blood and knows he could be off.

You just know that intelligent arguments in a northern accent, and from a woman, really gets under Raab's skin.
At least he paid tribute to the recently deceased comic Paul Grayson. It’s just real basic stuff and they still manage to fuck it up…That hasn't really been the case in previous bouts.
