Massive respect to the guy in Wakefield who snuck this bag into the background during the @bbclaurak interview of @BorisJohnson 😂😂😂 pic.twitter.com/NFfXRWiOci

at least May knew her limits and stuck to Tory safe spaces when she campaigned in Yorkshire.

Letting BJ do a walkabout with Kuenssberg gives him too much -- for one thing he can be demagogue with passers-by and get them to shout for Brexit, for another he doesn't get asked serious questions as say Paxman might once have done.

As JC said: BJ is evading scrutiny to an extraordinary degree.

But the fainting cop really is one of the great moments of its kind.

I’ve just been texting back and forth with my friend who’s from Wakey/Ossett and he says he’d love to see Boris fending for himself on the Westgate Run.

it would the briefest "Wakey Run" ever!

[would be]

let’s start some iron rules of britain for interloping yankees:

1 if I’ve heard from your faither I don’t need to hear from you
2 never need to hear from a hugo, will, jolyon or oliver

Trump level if this hasn't been shared before:

This embarrassment is our Prime Minister. This is the man we send to the world as our representative. Making a formal speech with full coverage at a time of unprecedented national crisis on the subject of law and order. It’s like we accepted some perverse bet to outstupid the US. pic.twitter.com/SeMN0MJfWd

Was gonna say that, while it's flattering, this is one arena where you lot would do well to avoid imitating us too faithfully.

so... did he just ad lib a speech today because the speech he’d prepared was day1electionspeech.docx ?

Ad libbing is what he does best, haven't you heard?

can i just say i watched fatty soames’ commons speech (hoping for a bit more incontinent emotion) and basically

fuck off soames

^ realised i still had this in my drafts.

on the speech. imo johnson is genuinely of the view that he can improvise anything and people will find it charming and he doesn’t need a script. because he is indulged and pampered and always has been no one normal has told him it’s excruciatingly embarrassing even as performance, let alone as something intended for serious consumption rather than a warm-up act or after dinner drunk pabulum.

not sure what the rogue always is doing there but tom d otm.

Boris is getting covered like he’s Corbyn

he's that good at ad libbing his top spad/dark genius of spin can send him out anywhere ill prepared - 8d chess!

Maybe Dominic Cummings is getting cold, cold revenge for BJ stalking his wife in and out of the workplace all those years ago.

the intense cumming of evil

Oof

do not want

it’s been quite a day for our prime minister, all told

Anyone watching this super cringe?! He's doing that "joke" again (who opened up abt this, about him at some donor night) by deliberately messing up a punch line.

It was Jeremy Vine

LOL @ people worrying over Bozzer's mental health on Channel 4 News after less than one day of his 'election campaign'.

this is just like an episode of In The Thick of It.

I’m in stitches imagining the shadow cabinet doing this:

Interviewing Lloyd Russell-Moyle today, he said BJ frequently gets distracted while making a speech and just stares vacantly around. Opposition now actively trying to distract him by making weird noises.

Just woke up and the very first thing I heard was JRM’s Wakefield comment on the radio. He is the lowest of the fucking low evil motherfucker.

how is it that every single voter quoted in this article seems like a goddamned moron, albeit each in their own unique way?

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/sep/05/wakefields-weary-voters-boris-johnson-never-speaks-to-normal-folk

Plenty of decent people in Wakefield but afternoon vox pops always get people who are not at work etc.

*sucks in breath*

Dr David Nicholl said in response to JRM "I am not bothered about Jacob Rees-Mogg. I’m not going to take a single word of health lessons from a muppet like him."

always get people who are not at work etc

shouldn't the article be filled with quotes from the proverbial "lazy" Slovakians, Romanians etc. then

^^^^the news content we need, thanks Ed!

Explain, Ed?

The NHK (BBC equivalent) 9pm news’s take on Brexit. Earlier they explained today’s fatal train crash near Yokohama using an N-Scale model train and a cardboard truck.

The whole programme is here. Brexit segment from about 24 minutes in

Especially at Soames' humiliation. Cummings ain't all bad, giving some of these cunts a kicking.

It was Jeremy Vine

So it was, ta!

I feel sorry for the fainting copper, I really do, but it can only be karma doing these things (I felt sorry for May's falling letter too). I marveled at how utterly broken and 'off' BJ was at the press co. It's like just after his mouth started to blurt out nonsense, he woke up and realised that no, this is not a nightmare, he really is awake and he really is clueless and embarrassing himself.

Oh boohoo, Kwasi Kwarteng whimpering about personal attacks on Boris Johnson on Question Time, fucking unbelievable. Also, why am I watching this shite?

idk obviously you should be listening to the back half of Children of the World

fiona bruce doesn't know what labour's position is

the host of britain's foremost political programme, ladies & gentlemen

iunno because I don't get paid 300k+ to understand this stuff but I think if I did I'd maybe make an attempt to understand broadly what their position is

More convinced than ever that the Tories and the Brexit Party are planning some sort of electoral pact.

fiona bruce fuck off challenge

how much of a cretin do you have to be to make ian blackford seem sympathetic

Did Boris Johnson go to Wakefield just to mess with the SEO for Jacob Rees Mogg's Andrew Wakefield comparison?

the 'you're frit' line just doesn't work when the SNP are polling at 80+%

Yeah this is bad. (surprised they're programming Newsnight and QT at the same time)
