HOW IS HE SO BAD AT THIS?

He should’ve said, ‘Look, I was very fortunate growing up, there’s no point denying that. What I want is for every child to have the opportunities I had, that’s why our policy is to blah, blah first-time buyers blah tax, etc., unlike Labour who want blah VAT on private schools, blah’.

Instead, he gets immediately rattled and starts gibbering at the first follow-up question. He is just the worst.

By the way, this is the interview he thought was so important he had to run away from Normandy to do it. Apparently, it wasn’t important enough for him to do any prep.

    Look, I’ve been searching all morning, and I simply cannot find a violin tiny enough for Sunak’s horribly deprived childhood.

      He also didn’t have a tiny violin as a child.

      Actually, he did. It’s just that he’s so tiny it looked like a cello.

        I guess that’s the problem. Getting a violin that’s tiny enough for Sunak means it’s so tiny that I can’t see it.

        (Although I am no taller than Sunak is. At least I am wider. 😂)

      Amazon sell 8cm violins called worlds smallest for £6.

      Would be hilarious if a few hundred turned up addressed to Rishi at 10 Downing Street tommorow evening.

        Oh that would be awesome! Do you think they can actually be sent there, or do packages to No 10 get redirected for security reasons?

          No idea. But likely the redirect thing.

          Pretty sure amazon turning up with a few hundred tiny violins. Will make news though. Simply because someone is paid to open them.
