Either that or she was on something.

It was really weird, she didn't look right at all. Mordaunt kept looking over at her as if to check on her.

Then she swiftly left again.

Very odd.

Yes, that's why people accuse her of being too right wing for a labour chancellor, because of the way she speaks!

Arrives late and misses the first segment.

Pisses off early and misses the end.

There's a joke in there about football fans, but I'm too disheartened to make it.

Just saw some footage of her staring into the abyss blinking in the HOC and had an instant flashback to the Diam bar advert that Harry Enfield used to do.

It was one of the strangest things I've ever seen.

Missed the UQ, turned up for 15 mins, sat there either half asleep or drugged up, didn't utter a word, and then legged it at the first possible moment.

Also heard on the radio that it was a meeting with Brady that delayed her. If so, she really could be done.

Would’ve loved to have been a fly on the wall…unless she was doing everything to persuade him otherwise

Her weird nasal voice and delivery of the same old Tina message isn't "speaking well" in my book

Surely it's obviouls she's no longer n control if her new Chancellor completes undoes a mini-budget put through by the previous encumbent she picked just a couple of weeks ago.

If this had happened under Labour...

Also unacceptable is the pressure it has put on normal people due to the market reaction yet will not see things return to normal even when the markets settle down.

Millions of people have been put under immense financial stress, some of whom will find it unmanageable, because of this incompetence. How on earth anyone could consider them a viable choice in an election baffles me.

Yeah but she said Labour isn’t the party of benefit claimants so clearly she wants to kill the poor.

Just more neoliberal *checks notes* nationalisation and massive climate investment.

Austerity, cutting benefits and making access to benefits unessacarily difficult does kill poor people, that why her comments pissed people off, though they were far left nut jobs like for example, to coin your phrase, checks note, disability campaign groups.

Look I'm all for helping people out and all that.

However, some people on benefits are absolutely taking the piss. IT NEEDS TO STOP.

There's a crew down in Windsor who claim about £80 million a year.

So, does she turn up for PMQs? Will she be able to answer questions if she does? Will it be her final nail as leader?

Good job none of that was suggested then. What was suggested was a Job Guarantee for people to take them off JSA.

And it was one group who were anti austerity (Disabled People Against Cuts), hardly a mainstream balanced group.

She's damned if she does and damned if she doesn't isn't she?

I can't see anyway out. If she doesn't turn up she is going to look incredibly weak and a coward and if she does turn up, she's going to be eaten alive.

It’s only face though that she’ll lose
She won’t lose her home
She won’t lose her paid job
She won’t struggle to heat her home
She won’t struggle to eat
She won’t lose her future
She won’t lose her security

Some Tory members *really* hate Sunak.

We need to have a look at this system where the weirdest of the weirdos choose our leaders…
