brexit negging when yr mandate is is trash: or further chronicles of a garbage-fire

what's boris' gameplan here? trying to make himself a martyr?

You know when, for instance, Celtic beat Rangers 5-1 and then they release a DVD of the match called something like The Parkhead Massacre? The Labour Party should release a DVD of May's speech.

Mair give Rudd a hard time earlier. He got her on the security fuck-up, the vagueness of May's social housing promise and how it is completely against Tory ideology. "Is she going to grow a beard next + get her own allotment?". I really like him sometimes.

how has jane merrick not stopped tweeting yet

Mair give Rudd a hard time earlier.

This is an understatement - he is just turning the screws on this awful woman. What a star!

Not a talky radio person at all but I will listen to this a few times over the next month.

eddie mair is real as fuck

Don't mess with this guy. Fucking hell.

'Do people want Bernard Manning as foreign seceretary?'

He read a full crime-sheet dossier on Boris' that portrays him as fascist cunt rather than a clown, which isn't done often enough by the BBC.

interview starts at 21:00

(in the above clip)

Yeah sorry should've said.

The account of the speech before the interview is quite good - unlike Newsnight which was a complete sham and underplayed how much she was coughing ffs.

always freaks me when I see pictures of radio people like Mair and he looks nothing like I thought he did in my head

He has lost a tremendous amount of weight

Before I saw his pic I unfairly visualised him as a Nick Campbell alike. All them Scots look the same to me!

god no I'd never Campbellise somebody I don't hate

Favourite bit is when Rudd refers to Johnson's comments as "colourful" and Mair just responds "...colourful..." with this perfect mixture of weariness and contempt. Also his repeated urge for her to refer to the security breach as something more than "disappointing".

amber rudd is a very bad interviewee

eddie mair is a national treasure tbh

love a mair murder

"What's she going to do next, grow a beard and start an allotment"

lmao

god mair fucking hates boris. god bless him.

at one point rudd says something about 'taking the fight back to labour', which seemed pretty telling - i dunno if she'd willingly acknowledge they've been on the back foot since the election but it's obvious they're aware of it

yeah mair's longstanding borisphobia is one of his most endearing qualities

i love when he makes her say "i don't want to get sucked down the boris vortex"

gonna make that my ringtone

i love when he makes her say "i don't want to get sucked down the boris vortex"

One thing from the conference and from that interview is that she clearly hates boris johnson as well. Doing that thing where you have to defend and support a colleague in an external meeting even though you hate them and think they're totally incompetent, and agree with the people telling you so.

wow, what an interview.

there was an interesting moment when a journo caught AR en route to a meeting at the conference, and the journo asked her re BJ and his latest quips.
to say she rolled her eyes and snapped back re showing more interest in the the home secretary not the foreign secretary would be an understatement.
i.e. i suspect fizzles is spot on with that post.

Eddie Mair not looking too well in that second photo.

Boris is the terrible lead singer of a terrible band and all his terrible bandmates are sick of him sucking up all the press attention

Nah he's the showboating guitarist upstaging the uncharismatic lead singer.

love a mair murder

well this is unfortunate, esp on a uk politics thread

*gulp*

yeah Matt I thought about the guitarist analogy but I'd got halfway thru typing and couldn't be bothered to change it

say what u like about boris he fucking shreds on the kit

Most of the 'Propaganda' LP will be on Theresa May's iPod when she gets gone ('Thanks But No Thanks', 'Something For The Girl With Everything', 'Who Don't Like Kids', 'Achoo'...).

In fact the fake moustache is quite lame and unnecessary. he already looks like a glowering nazi cunt.
