He is the fall guy, just like Boris will be.
It has worked with 3 leaders in 10 years so far.
Why is a footballer holding our prime minister to account ffs
He's such a fecking worm of a man. How someone so pathetic can be in his position still is absolutely unreal.

Because Starmer has all the presence of a substitute teacher.
PE Teachers can take a team to the top of the PL...
well, if it isn't the consequence of my own actions
pmq's is almost as painful as a united/city game
Boris' reply to any difficult questions during PMQs today about food parcels, and fisherman in Scotland:
'Oxford Vaccine!'
'Oxford Vaccine!'
jesus fecking wept
the tories will just continue to repeat this because 1 - it's true, and 2 - starmer wont do anything to change it.
The British Gas workers being fired then rehired on lower wages was a very low act.
Today's pmq, Boris at his dithering, bumbling, rambling and indecisive worst. He should be ashamed of himself to yet again have the Speaker intervene and tell him to answer the questions.
He sounds full of panic and typically says the first stupid thing that comes into his head.
Is he a real leader???
And we all saw it coming.
Got to laugh at this though. At least they're now admitting that they're useless. New tactics seem to be "I know we are but so are you." Wonder if he'll now grow a pair and do what he should be doing rather than sitting on the fence trying to win back the lost sheep.
What a joke. Starmer really is inept. Where are all the posters calling for an electable leader?
Not even surprised, by this.
To people with common sense, yes it reads as "wow Boris is admitting to his own shiteness", the problem with that is a large majority of the British public are empathising with Boris because "he's got a difficult job to do". People are dumb.
When it's time for elections, what will stick in the minds of the populace is that the LOTO was outdone by a 23-year old footballer - especially since, I doubt Boris will still be the leader of the Tories by then, so he won't be the target for Labour to go at - and if the Tories are smart, they will just continue to repeat that line again & again because Starmer will have no defence to it.
Christ. The amount of painful, excruciating clips there have been of Matt Hancock since 2019... How can one man take so much public humiliation? What effect must that have on him?
Or, more concerning, what effect has his incompetence had on others?
Honestly deliberate or not I think the non stop public humiliations act as a sort of relief valve for the media and watching public. The tories solution to the constant pressure building up from both their inability to deal with covid and their role in the general decay over the last decade is to basically make Hancock into a human piñata. Some one that the media or public can batter around once a week on live tv in order to create some idea of accountability.
Completely agree. Think that much was clear in the 2019 election too.
Yeah the last election was genuinely mad. It's one thing to have a party win a massive majority but the Tory campaign was just something else.
We've pretty much got a government full of Spectator columnists.
Funny you say that, a Tory colleague of mine was telling me today how the tories are different than when they were under May and Cameron because supposedly some of their new MPs are social liberals.
Always wondered what it's like for families watching those type of clips.
"I love you and all but you're such an embarrassing twat."
The image of Hancock hanging from a tree branch as young children bash him up with sticks has brightened my day up no end, so thanks.
Now that everyone realizes how easy it is to get out of homelessness...
Well, they're not paying rent or council tax. Food and energy costs must be low as well. Saving 5k is easy. The average homeless person gets, what, £500 a day in spare change? They'd be able to buy a bungalow within a year.
Of course.
Toby Young being the cnut he is
So the ERG now seems to have morphed into the CRG and is proceeding to be wrong about a different subject.

I'm shocked that a government that has shown a disdain for workers' rights since 2010 would use Brexit as an excuse to tear up European laws that enshrined them.
don’t employees just sign a waiver for the 48 hr working week in any case? Granted, that’s what I did that 20 years ago, and things may have changed... I would love to work a 48 hour week these days!
Predictable. Their dream is to go back to Victorian England. Great for the ruling class. Not so great for the workers!
I had a job ten years ago where they asked me to sign it during the training week and they said "you don't have to sign it if you don't want to...". I refused, so they asked again, this time hinting that it made me look unprofessional. I told them to feck off and walked out. Stole a pen on the way out too
