    Not sure what Sunak was thinking, but I equally find Starmers faux-outrage to be a bit distasteful considering Labours own issues with TERFS.

    At the same time…just apologise mate. Doubling down isn’t the play here.

      I don’t think he was thinking - I think he had his scripted joke and was going to deliver it no matter what. I’ve noticed he has the tendency in interviews to just repeat his answers when and interviewer tries to dig into a topic, he’s just not good at thinking on his feet.

        Similar to when he brings out the Jeremy Corbyn digs at PMQs. That was ages ago mate, get over it.

          That was like 2 PM’s ago. Back when we had a PM the country had voted for, back before we had a PM his own party had voted for.

        The parents of murdered children have had it too good for too long.
