Mainly sharing because of how insane Badenoch is. ‘Shall I tell everyone I skip lunch and just eat steak at my desk? Yes, that’ll make me seem relatable.’

EDIT: Huh, the headline in the article is different from the one on the homepage, so now I seem insane. Touché, Kemi.

    Kemi: Sandwiches aren’t real food. Having a lunch break is for whimps! I have people bring me STEAK and I eat it while I work! Also Kier plans on watching Love Actually and I plan to watch DIE HARD!!

    (After being questioned) Kier’s spokesperson: Quite weird you’re asking about this, but I know he likes tuna sandwiches and the occasional cheese toastie…

    You: omg how could Kier do this?? He’s not a serious politician

      Didn’t read the article, because the headline didn’t exactly give me hope that it wasn’t going to be a waste of time. Both it, and the excerpt, also infer Starmer responded directly.

        It really doesn’t. The spokesperson says “I think…”

        It’s clearly not words from Starmer. He did not respond directly. Or seemingly even indirectly.

          We might be talking about different things, I realise – when I said “the headline” and “the excerpt”, I meant the title and excerpt of the post, which says “PM says they are a British institution” (in the excerpt), and “Starmer defends sandwiches” (in the title). Sorry, I could’ve been clearer on that!

        Yeah who cares about facts. If you don’t read the article you can just decide what it said all on your own and then complain about that
