Can't recall the subject but noticed another occasion when Patel was being stateswoman like while her colleagues made petty party political points. Is someone coaching her?

the Tory leader attacked the opposition for "promoting sex toys in Parliament"
I beg your pardon?

Assume that PMQs now is about the clippable TikTok moment. That this massive Kemi Win is posted without context.

It reminds me of 90s wrestling. A tiny, permanently online subsection of the audience understand the insider reference, while the rest assume she is having a Trumpian moment.

Not a gaff though.

It was an initiative by a backbench Labour member, aimed at improving awareness and knowledge of sexual health, and getting past the 'sniggering schoolboy' reactions (largely from the right) that have impeded previous attempts to grow the fuck up.

If we want to engage in whataboutery, then there's plenty of random shit Tories pulled, including at times of national crisis (if that is what is happening).

Back in the day, the anti-AIDS programme at university did exactly the same thing. It raised a few giggles, us being 18, it being 1990, but we accepted it in the right spirit.

The Leader of the Opposition, in 2026, ought to have got beyond that. Let alone have regressed behind it.

Kemi only bought up sex toys to crowbar in a flimsy quip about fiddling while Rome burn.

Meanwhile Funtime Sam is wearing nothing but her Ann Summers underwear beneath her coat. Her campaign about weaning people away from online porn is very worthy. Not that an old codger like me any longer has any interest. Seeing articles about frisky pensioners makes me even less inclined to seek toys and potions to resurrect my sex drive in the next decade. Eeew.

Given that the authorities, ie her government, were blamed too, what does she suggest happen to them? Any consequences for their actions? Or indeed inaction?

escape criminal charges on a technicality the Government should deport them.
And if the ECHR stands in the way?
That tells you everything you need to know about why we must leave.

I’d like to bang up Badenoch, the fact that she’s not guilty of any criminal offence is a mere technicality. Wasn’t she a passionate defender of jury trials for everyone last month?

This is Telegraph law. There's sacred jury trials for true born Englishmen, and the European Convention of Human Rights for foreign criminals. She appointed Nick Timothy to Shadow Justice Secretary.
