Re: Oh dear.

Its funny how the video looks quite different when you play it for another few seconds though and he answers the question..

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-politics-68901786

You are such a sycophantic tory boy creep

Only you could defend this idiot

And here you are , like clockwork , waving your little tory flag

It's embarrassing for most people but your ego will never allow yourself to be shafted

You have been done on here again though

The best job for you would be to work in PR for conservative central office then you could talk bollocks and get paid for it

[pipster]

Carwyn Jones to investigate Gethin bribe.....

at lest gething knows what a bribe is

Lol - Welsh Labour have acted swiftly and decisively - they are going to investigate and they have instructed ex Labour Firs Minister Carwyn Jones to do the inquiry.... so absolutely no bias there then

Oh here she is. The yapping dog.

You know, I've thought about and it I've changed my mind.

I did think that maybe it was a rhetorical question and that Bob had disingenuously shared a video edited to remove the answer to the question a few seconds after the video cuts.

But I think he's right. Much more plausible that he's just thick.

And Diane Abbott with maths? Not confused, just thick

Sadiq Khan gaffe about antisemitism the other week? Not saying the wrong words...just thick.

Just call everyone thick. Much easier!

You are a complete tory bore

You are at it again .....what about Diane Abbot ! What about Sadiq Khan ! ......

You can't help yourself

If someone told you the snow was white you would say it is but it was whiter under a conservative government

Don't you feel like an idiot when you are getting your arse handed to you on a plate but twist and deflect like a slippery eel ?

I was hoping an utter hammering for your entitled lot at the election would shut you up but I think it will be worse

You write these faux intelligent replies thinking you are speaking to a bunch of politics students but hardly anyone bothers reading them as it's like going to the toilet

Everyone knows what's coming and a quick flush and it's gone

I didn't give a faux intelligent reply. I said he clearly gave a rhetorical question as part of his answer.

Maybe you actually think that he thinks Rwanda and DR Congo are the same country.

Actually you probably do.

He's an idiot

Tosser

What a clown

Hopeless

James Whales joins the party ?

Well if we look at the bigger picture , my analysis , the labour party blah blah blah


The difference between those of us who don't vote for the tory filth and you is evident on the Angela Rayner thread

We all give her the bird because that's what she deserves

But a tory caught with his pants down watching hardcore porn in a brothel ?

You would weasel in and find some way of trying to defend him

You carry on pretending you are nuanced and apolitical but you are only kidding yourself you are as biased towards the Tories as that ponce Gary Barlow from take that

So do you actually think that the MP in question thinks Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo are the same country do you?

Be honest.

5 posters on here think he's an idiot

DR Congo is the second biggest country in Africa and widely known. Rwanda is widely known from the genocide in the past and from political debate here for the last couple of years.

Thinking they are the same country is like thinking Germany and Poland are the same country.

I don't believe you actually believe that, you are just happy being whipped up into a pretend frenzy by an video edited to end before he even finished the answer and so that you can moan about the Tories on the internet on a Friday night.

Get a grip Mr kneejerk.

If he had said 'Congo is a different country from Rwanda, isn't it' as a statement you might (just might) have a point.

But he didn't. He said it as a question.

In the moment he tied himself in a knot, looked a total idiot and (until his central office autopilot kicked in) failed to answer a simple audience question.

His grasp of geography may have improved by the following morning - but the following morning wasn't what was beamed to millions of viewers.

As a media event it was a perfect summary of the entire Rwanda Scheme scandal.
