Even when I disliked his politics, I've always had a soft spot for Two Jabs. I can't even remember why that bloke he lamped was throwing eggs, but his response was so very human.


This seems really bad? Am I going to have to watch this now? Urgh.

I t hink he'd said something about just feeling something wet running down his neck and thinking they guy might've stabbed him or bricked him or something. Seemed fair enough, Prescott's a good lad.

I never got how people thought David Cameron was some slick operator personally, just always came across as a posh pudgy sweaty pig loving oval office to me but no one can deny surely that Corbyn has way more charisma and energy than that lich hag?

Cameron was very very very good at providing quick and on-message segments to the press. Corbyn wanders all over the place mostly.

Shall we have a whip round? She reminds me of a teacher I had in senior school, and we used to have standing on the table contest, whilst she shouted at us before breaking down in tears.

Ask her about 10s of thousands of immigration, Andrew.

Yeah but he's good at it. A lot of people they just want to see someone confidently state things, Cameron rarely got ruffled or didn't have a response - which was often some talking point or quickly changing the subject to something else. He was good at the performance, right down to the way he always ended every media statement by walking out of frame all determined like he had something super important to do

There was a point where the entire country was talking about Cameron loving a pig, and he still went out and showed his face looking barely bothered by it. May gets the slightest criticism of her manifesto polices and begins to melt down.

I am beginning to think the same. May is bad, but this is just smacks of deliberating throwing it.
