Raab again, apparently. I look forward to watching his faux-surprise-indignation-switch-briefly-to-placatory-look-like-a-taxidermied-frog act later on, when I have some time.

Yes so do I, the man is clearly talented, I also like the way he comes across as the essence of a gentleman when showing patience in abundance when Kay Burley shows her ignorance in trying to off put him when he veers from her script.

He has showed remarkable patience, on that we can agree. To and beyond the point of masochism, imo. In the defence of a man who demoted him not so long ago. There’s being humble and then there’s being active in your own humiliation.

Hypothetically would it be better to have no integrity or no pride, if you could only have one or the other? I think the former would make you a worse person but the latter would be an even less tolerable existence.

I love the parallel world the hard right live in. Burley is as right wing as they come (if it wasn't already obvious, you can tell because she's also frankly a bit dim)

And good with the illegal parties - kept her job though

The last time I checked she did not make the rules and admitted her guilt unlike the man with the granddad tie on today. I wonder why the world laughs at us when that is the best we can turn out is that.

We are officially the laughing stock of the world thanks to that stuttering oaf

Sending him off to the Ukraine to "help" with diplomacy is akin to giving an arsonist a box of matches and some petrol.
It looked more like trying to get a different picture on the front pages of the papers.

Vodka run. It's s**t cheap out there.

How is somebody trying to help diplomatically akin to giving an arsonist a box of matches and some petrol? your choice of a euphemism is once again well off the mark.
