From what was very obviously a party political event. This is quite astonishingly improper. He can pay for this himself.

I'm sure it's a coincidence that he did this in a by-election week.

Speaking of which I don’t think he has been near them.

I read an interesting comment elsewhere, on how the majority of the filming was from behind Richie Rich, not sure if that was to capture the ecstasy of the audience - well that went well, or his charisma was too much for a full frontal

Misdirection, I'd guess. Hides the true size of the audience/studio, and keeps viewers' attention moving around. That or the camera operator fancies themselves directing music videos.

Numbers man Rishi latest.

The Dome, of course, is doing fine.

Don’t stand your back to the audience is rule one, luckily for him the audience at home was probably only slightly bigger.

Just setting traps now.

When that doesn’t work what then?

Apologies for the source, but I do find it funny
However, whoever dreamt it up needs their bumps feeling; it was bound to attract this sort of response, but more importantly, why the fuck is he wasting time doing this when there is so much more important issues he should be addressing

Because mobile phones in general and those in the hands of kids in particular seriously wind up the repulsive gonad-faced gargoyles in the Tory Local Associations. I don't think people realise just how vile those Tory members are.
In answer - he has gone full Corbynite and has retreated to speaking only to his own smallest base.

Some viewers of the social media video praised the PM's acting performance, with one commenting: 'And the Oscar goes to...'

Another said: 'Bro chose the wrong profession', while a third even claimed: 'Sunak's acting puts him in the running to be the next Bond, no?'

Someone explain sarcasm to the Mail's readers.

Tax cuts latest.

English farmers to be offered ‘largest ever’ grant scheme amid food security concerns
Rishi Sunak will be addressing the NFU conference in Birmingham shortly. As Helena Horton reports, he will promise farmers the “largest ever” grant scheme

... he will promise farmers the “largest ever” grant scheme

And two days later a hapless Tory on the morning tv round will deny it was a promise, stating that "it was only a suggestion".

Bit late for sucking up to farmers. Is Rishi’s robot rollout subject to due diligence (‘bureaucracy’)?
Planning applications aren’t complicated what ‘bureaucracy’ will Sunak be slashing?

Mr Sunak said £220m will be put into new food-productivity schemes, farm technology and automation to "reduce reliance on overseas workers" during the next financial year.

He also announced plans to cut bureaucracy around permitted development rights, so farmers can more easily diversify and develop new businesses, such as farm shops, commercial space and sporting venues. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-envi ... 342314.amp

Turning a blind eye to those polytunnels with the large men who are always on their phones hanging around outside.

Perfectly normal.

I wonder if these tax cuts could end up causing a mini Truss?

So do you bet them on the next election or do you actually implement them?

The latest scorched earth looks like decapitating the Civil Service, one department at a time.

Come on then, Sunak. Take the whip off him.
