I will say a thousand times, and more if I haven’t said it enough, that this Prime Minister came into the role with no recent experience in government and the government experience that he did have was from a completely different time. He elbowed his way into the role expecting that his character was right for the job, that he would inject personality into being the Prime Minister and, I suspect, simply be a figurehead for the government with everyone else doing the thinking. Turns out it’s not like that, partly because there’s nobody in the Labour Party who seems to know what the thinking should even be which is why he’s having to pay consultants to tell them! His performance here was woeful, asking questions repeatedly of the Leader of the Opposition - easily done when a) you know she actually has the better answers and b) because after years out of Westminster he perhaps thought PMQs involved the PM asking, rather than answering the questions. Two and a half more years of this. 🤦🏻‍♀️
