Today's PMQs- Johnson deflecting questions as usual.

Septimia

All politicians deflect questions all the time. So what's new?

Yup!
It’s what they all do, some have more clever ways of doing it and are smoother and better at it, is all.
PMQ’s is a waste of time and always has been.It’s about which side can put one over on the other side.

Before Al was elected as leader of the tory party I read an anecdote about his tendency to repeat just about the same 'speech', and behaviours, at after dinner speaking engagements.

I recall this story every time I see PMQs (and I've watched most of them since April) because Johnson actually seems to repeat the same lines every single time. Very often they have nothing at all to do with the question asked, Nothing at all. He's made one 'speech' do about 7 month's worth of work!

Still, we have world beating death figures. What more could we ask for?

Yes, I read that article, too. He really is a one trick pony isn’t he.

Not all politicians lie

It's the tory voters' comfort blanket, Wwmk2. They have no other defence...

Must admit, I can't see any point in PMQs whilst the present incumbent remains in No.10. Total obfuscation and bluster.

I was just about to post exactly the same Septima

He just turns every question into another question and makes out that any criticism of the government is a criticism of the NHS or key workers. Why doesn’t the speaker make him actually answer the questions?or indeed why are no MP’s made to answer the questions put to them?

The changes in Wales are not to the Rules but to the Guidance.....? aren’t we lucky to have our very own buffoon!
