P.S her wooden delivery makes Starmer look positively charismatic grin

Starmer was absolutely right about the uselessness of rehashing Osborne's failed economic policies.

All that cutting corporation tax for the big boys does is give them more profit to distribute in CEO's pay and dividends...

I agree, Petera.

I must admit - and I think you know I'm not a supporter - it wasn't the car crash I expected. No answers, wooden delivery, but she didn't fall apart.

Cleverly seems to be reinventing himself as the front bench clown and he would have been well advised to pay attention during the 'NI protocol' exchange rather the chatting and joking with Braverman.

Gawd help us is all I have to say after that. Let’s see what they come up with tomorrow to help with the cost of living crisis.

She needs some sort of speech training.
Help with her delivery

FannyCornforth Wed 07-Sept-22 12:34:05

I wish that I’d decided to count the number of ‘delivers’
It would have been more fun.
Btw read ‘deliver’ backwards ?

I’m half watching while on hold to the DWP; probably one of the least appealing ways to spend a weekday lunchtime

She looks very stressed.

Esspee Wed 07-Sept-22 12:19:20

Tomorrow, tomorrow, there’s always tomorrow, it’s only a day…..away.

Ian Blackford as usual being shouted down. He makes so much sense.

62Granny Wed 07-Sept-22 12:16:17

I love watching Ian Blackford? she hasn't told us anything yet!!

Germanshepherdsmum I’ve already lost count ?

Zonne Wed 07-Sept-22 12:12:49

Please make her stop saying ‘as Prime Minister’

Zonne Wed 07-Sept-22 12:08:10

There goes net zero, and tackling climate change.

And debt rather than taxing the outrageous profits of energy companies.

Germanshepherdsmum Wed 07-Sept-22 12:03:13

Right now. Anyone want to count how many times she says ‘deliver’?

Esspee Wed 07-Sept-22 11:59:33

Fanny you know it will be a total disaster. I’m in. When is it?

FannyCornforth Wed 07-Sept-22 11:45:22

Shall we have a thread about it?

It will be interesting (I hope)
