Sunak's got involved with the pathetic cricket controversy (Australia did nothing wrong, as the Sky commentary team pretty much immediately realised). Sunak, Mr Ethics, thinks Australia were outside the spirit of the game.

The Australians will be about as impressed as they would be by Sunak opening the bowling in the next test. To which he'd bring more authority than he does to politics.

The other day he told test match special that he was sad to hear about how extensive racism was in cricket but he had every confidence in the ECB to deal with the problem. Such a comment is utter nonsense. If the ECB have spent years ignoring the problem how can they possibly be in a position to sort the problem out?

[Tubby Isaacs]

Sunak thought Australia broke the spirit of the laws.

Talking of which.

Looks like an offshore donation presented as if it came from a small business.

Johnson's Chancellor discovers "Spirit of the law".

[Youngian]

No more fuddy duddy Tory party with thrusting young Rishi at the wheel, is Starmer on the ropes? A leader who is a decade younger than Reagan when he ascended the presidency will come up with something.

[Andy McDandy]

Way to go alienating your core vote while finishing off any support you had among young people.

[Crabcakes]

If that’s the best they’ve got, that’s absurd. If anything, it draws attention to the fact that Starmer and Sunak don’t look much different age-wise, which reflects well on Starmer but poorly on Sunak.

Also, you can’t really say 62 is past it and then in the same breath demand pensioners retire later and work longer to plug the labour gap you created.

Sunak, Hunt and Dowden negative with Tory members.

[Abernathy]

They're liking Badenoch, Cleverly, and (god help us ) Barclay, though.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Cleverly and Badenoch have got their heads down, so that's almost encouraging (though of course Badenoch still has her anti-trans credit in the back with them).

Funny that Greg Hands isn't popular, even though he's preaching to the choir.

Sunak, of course is the Tory XI's nightwatchman.
Sent in to face the music when the game's slipping away to protect the "recognised batsmen".

[Tubby Isaacs]

Good analogy, Sir.

[Tubby Isaacs]

- How are the polls?
- Um, Labour are slipping a bit.

Could the by-elections remind a few more people that the Lib Dems exist? They'll likely win one of them, at most, but that's the sort of publicity they never get normally.

More stardust here. "Fuck off and vote for the Lib Dems", Rishi tells big chunk who voted Tory in 2019.

It's worse than you think. It's part of an international fund. Britain cutting its money doesn't exactly encourage anyone else to pay what they've said they will.

And yet more stardust. Sunak has lost the court case on Bozo's whatsapp messages.

Fuck the green crap is Sunak’s best chance of getting in with the lads. He doesn’t always come across as the nasty hard right politician that he is.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Admittedly, this pollster tends to give Labour very high scores, but Jeez.

[Youngian]

David Cameron’s legacy

[Tubby Isaacs]

Our Tory MP would win fairly comfortably then.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

If true this is fucking disgraceful, and possibly actionable.
