She reminds me of that lad from ' on the buses' when he says ' I'll get you Butler'. Very odd indeed. Can't unsee it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't it have been simpler just to say, "Sorry, I'd never seen the video clip before'? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hadn't seen it before, but with or without, it looks like a dig implying extreme racism/nationalism on her part.

Mella Yella 40 Posted September 7, 2022 22 hours ago, TeemuVanBasten said: She seems to represent the views of the people of South West Norfolk, must have one of the largest majorities in the country... 69% of the votes in 2019, second place had 18.1%. A Londoner put in to a safe Tory seat in Norfolk, she doesn't even live here. A bit like the second home owners? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The situation is so dire I don’t think she can lose, the measures she puts in will all be very carefully orchestrated by the tories to have maximum impact to show them in some kind of caring light. Also wouldn’t be surprised if it worked. Sounds about right, Tories have never shied away from taking Labour policy as their own after a repackage.How magpie Tories steal Labour policies and rebrand them as their own | Conservatives | The Guardian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A joke, laughing at her specifically because she was in the wrong place, wrong time. Let's hope for the sake of the country she is better prepared now, but at that time she was well off the pace, like an U18 full back being pushed into a cup semi-final and asked to man mark Haaland!
