I quite like watching politics at the moment, and G20 in Indonesia, because I like Dishy Rishi Sunak.. he’s looking so smart in casual clothes. πŸ˜…
Anyone else think the same..

Anyone who doesn't realise that how our PM dresses and presents himself is critical to the respect this country is held in international eyes, is being naive.

Boris Johnson was an international laughing stock because of his shambling gait and ability to make the mosst expensive and best cut suit look as if he had just found it in the gutter.

I think the rather fetching pink shirt was a gift from the hosts.

I think the saying is - Manners make Man - it was our school motto so I did at one time in my life know the Latin version too!

I think Rishi Sunak always looks smart, saw him in Northallerton a few weeks ago and he looked imacculate in his casual clothes.

As long as our Prime Minister looks presentable and will be respected by other world leaders, I really couldn't care less whether he is dishy or looks good in casual clothes.

What I do not want is a shambling oaf like Boris Johnson, who looked like an unmade bed and was treated with the contempt he deserved by other international leaders.

Best laugh I've had in a while.,thanks M0nica. Certainly Rishi is Dishy- hope he lives up to his image and dishes out some good policies!

Rishi doesn't do anything for me appearance or otherwise. Happily that fact won't trouble him.

It has always been acceptable to criticise and judge the way female politicians dress - makes a change for the focus to be on a male politician!

Rishi Sunak went to Winchester. The school's motto is Manners makyth the Man He took it on board.

Eton's motto is Floreat Etona 'May Eton flourish' Interesting that one school motto is aimed at what it wants its pupil to be and the other at what it wants the school to do.

I am pleased to see we have a PM who looks smart but I am actually much more interested in how his politics are influenced by his Hindu religion. Although not a Conservative supporter I don't subscribe to the view that all Tories are selfish, bad people who only care for themselves. I doubt Rishi is in politics for financial gain so I am hoping his motives are in tune with the values of his religion.

He looks presentable, in fact quite dapper. We now have aPM who is not an embarrassment. He is representing the U.K. and appearance counts. Thank goodness Boris that self styled wreck of a PM has gone.
