I'm actually excited for PMQ's!  Such a saddo 😀

[steviewevie]

I'm actually in something called a work office today. Might sneak a watch though...although there is a chance they won't even mention Gray report and partygate.

Same! Glued to it.

Here we go again, the same lines, every week, for the past 2 months.

Boris voice and lines of defence are shockingly poor today.  He sounds rattled. 

If Russia and Ukraine wasn't happening, he would have nothing new.

FIGHT!

[Ayrshire Chris]

Johnson hoping the Russians will bail him out of this shit storm. How ironic

Didn’t this happen the other week and he came out fighting/in full-on Boris mode the following day?

Thanks goodness we have Boris in charge with all that going on...I wonder if he's been to any meetings yet.

[chazwwe]

Congrats on not answering a simple yes or no answer. 

[steviewevie]

Not sure it's going to work for Johnson bigging up everything they're doing to help cost of living.

[steviewevie]

Man, Johnson is such a turd. Going for a run.

[fatyeti24]

May I inform the prime minister that what this particular member of the public wants to hear is a news report of him fucking the fuck off.

[chazwwe]

That Brexit comment, haha. 

[Zoo Music Girl]

Ugh don't think Keir is cutting it today. Really desperate for someone to just call Boris a c**t (I know they can't).

Pretty unremarkable performance from Starmer there. Leave it to Blackford to provide the spine. 

[Zoo Music Girl]

Come on Blackford 

[Zoo Music Girl]

Did Johnson seriously make a fat joke?!

[hodgey123]

There really must be a better way of doing this than this pantomime. Is it the same in other countries?

[chazwwe]

Starmer didn't push it enough today. My bet is he was expecting the report before PMQs. 

[jimmillen]

If there's ever anything to make you despair of this country it's bloody PMQs. 🙄

Agree totally with the principle of the PM being accountable to Parliament, but when it just descends into yah boo shouting from the benches, shameless failure to answer questions and cheap points scoring, no wonder people are losing faith in politics.

What a shitshow.

Speaker really needs to take control and not just threaten …. He also needs to get the questions answered … 

[Punksnotdead]

"I'd rather have a lawyer than a liar" - great line!

[stuie]

Some of those tories questioners that just crawled up his ass might regret that in a few hours!

Bercow was much better than the current incumbent in my opinion
