How is Truss polling as favourite in whatever metrics the Tories are using?! :lol:

Offering very little.

Rishi is a belligerent twat and these interruptions aren't a good look, but I sympathise with him forced to debate such an ignorant lunatic.

No, it’s not a good look. He’s much better at speaking than she is though.
Indeed; seems counterproductive though to risk coming across as bullying a woman when he's comfortably the better showman without that. But then again, he's playing to the Conservative base, so...
He's clearly been told to do that because Truss is a terrible public speaker and it'll throw her off.
Yeah it's clearly a tactic since he's been at it from the start - wonder if his team are seeing this as a positive the way he's coming across.

Truss, speaking, sounds out of her depth.

Given where the polls are, this feels like it doesn't matter or than to serve as an exhibition for how fecked the UK will be under Truss.

Sunak is a prick but he's schooling Truss here. This could almost backfire on him, he's belittling her a little bit.

The hand gestures in this debate are infuriating.
So fecking trained to accompany the absolute lies spewing from their mouth pieces

What’s with the two name approach from the presenters by the way? Saying “Rishi Sunak” each time sounds really weird.

The little anecdotes as well. Might as well send up two robots.

Sunak saying his daughters are experts on the environment. Maybe it should be the guy applying for PM mate.

Their answers on the environment are so unconvincing :lol:. They're both so awful it's embarrassing.

Not much of a sob story your mum being a chemist in Southampton eh.

Oh my word. Rishi got applause after saying the same thing for the 7th time.

How thick can people be?

Wasn't Truss at school during the Conservative government?

As much as Sunak is a twat how the living feck he isn’t walking this and is miles behind in the polls is just absolutely bizarre. At least he’s competent in his twatishness. He seems like a perfect Tory.
Yep, it's a sad choice between these 2 but Rishi just seems much better if the 2..... not saying much still

Starmer will want Truss I think for the GE more than Rishi

Sunak has stopped interrupting as much now. Was clearly a calculated tactic to start like that.

Also, what sort of nut jobs could be angry that Boris has got the boot? He survived many months more than he should have done.

If Truss wins I think she'll somehow manage to not lead the Tory's into the next GE.

She'll cause a big feck up, or maybe a series of medium-sized feck ups, or both.

Think Truss will win but it's been a poor introduction to the public from her. Most are only just getting to know her lack of intellect.

Her last line about 'taking more risks' is a poor line from a potential but she can't think on her feet.
