The thing that concerns me most, is the sort of stuff that gets airtime at PMQ's, while people are sat in their homes in overcoats, wondering if they should have 30p beans or tomatoes for tea. If she wants to rib Sunak about his pretend support of Southampton, do it in the subsidised bar in the House of Commons.

All this backslapping jocularity sickens me when there are really important concerns that need addressing.

And that should be the concern of every voter , whichever way you lean.


Why is it pretend support he is from Southampton . Why wouldn’t he  support his home Town team?

Probably because he’s so shallow and vacuous, most of us don’t believe him when he says stuff like that.

Similar to when he boasts he’s a Northern MP and the only reason he spends time up there is to take his daughter shooting.

I didn’t know there was a ban on shallow and vacuous people being football supporters.

I'd imagine that Sunak is as big a footy supporter as one of his erstwhile predecessors, Cameron, who was an avid West Ham fan. Erm, in mean Aston Villa. Sunak probably thinks Southampton's nickname is The Bees...

Anyone know what Lineker thinks?

Not going to be able to sleep until I've heard from him.

Well, no. Otherwise Chelsea FC would cease to exist.

Exactly this. Her constituency has many, many challenges and, given that she was given a question, she should have used it in a constructive manner.

I hate some of the cocky fornicators that have got tickets for Brighton and went to Southampton and have only started watching town full time this season. Dancing round the pontoon like children every game . They have long supported premier league teams and never given a toss about Town till last season. Some poor sod who has been a season ticket holder for 30 years will of missed out though . That boils my urine . By the way Im not or had no intention of going to the game . I'll watch on TV

If preachy Nici had to ask a question in the Commons and jump on the bandwagon…

I’d have more respect if she asked the Defence Secretary about our problems at corners…

Nici: ‘So Mr Speakers. I ask my friend, the Rights Honourables Members of Lancasters and Wyres…why…why…wyre…arf…chance would be a fine thing…WHY…are Grimsby Uniteds doing a man-two-man and zonal hybrid at floated corners…Mr Speakers…Mr Speakers…he knows, he knows…why…why…why…are Grimsby Albions leaving a man completely unmarked at the far post. Not for a bicycle kick. Not for a towering header. No Mr Speaker. A tap in. At the far post. Knee high. Unmarked. Grimsby Rovers. That. Is. A. Disgrace. STOP.THE.CORNERS’.
