    What a shambles that bbc next PM was!
    How can 2 people who served in the same cabinet be so far away from each other in policies and ideas??? Roland Rat just continually talks over everyone and is allowed to, Truss constantly does the Theresa May stage dance everytime she opens her mouth. What a ****ing choice

    Didn’t see this, but just heard Kier Starmer on the wireless. He spoke for 14 minutes, but didn’t say anything. Nothing there at all. Stunningly poor.

    A lot of me wants Truss to win out of a schadenfreude type desire to see the Tories punished at the next election. After watching the debate though, I really would prefer Sunak to win for the sake of the country.

    He has themost sensible ideas.


    But I agree I really don't like him.


    I suppose that doesn't matter really

    The weird thing is they are now both outliers on economic policy. But at least they have a position, unlike Starmer….

    Lots of Union Jacks around Starmer today apparently. And he's asking for a budget that is distinctly British.

    I think he must be being advised by Nigel Farage. Still, the sinner that repenteth and all that...

    What I hadn't realised is that Liz Truss went to Oxford University.
    Unbelievable!

    She got there from a comprehensive. Richie was at the most academic school in the country, though he did get a scholarship to it.

    I'm no fan of the BBC, but they've done the right thing hosting Eurovision here with Ukranian participation. The government should stump up some of the eyewatering bill.

    If he got a scholarship, why does he make so much of how his parents were able to pay for him through their hard work and sacrifice?

    They would have had to pay for six years Prep school and 2 years private primary. Expensive.

    It was suggested on the radio today that he didn't get a scholarship at all.
