Having just watched from today, it was odd , to say the least. Given the farce that Starmer has created you would think it would have been easy for Bad Enoch to actually look competent.
But no, her smug, aren’t I fantastic arrogance just gets in the way.
She is utterly obnoxious.

Very poor attended #PMQs today.

And I'm not sure the Conservative Party endeared itself more to voters by exhorting in almost every #PMQ they asked, and our Second-Past-The-Post PM's responses that we go out on Thursday and vote Conservative at tomorrow's council, mayoral and PCC elections.

(And I still have had no answer from the Nastiz to my question: why did the Tories introduce the post of Police *And* Crime Commissioner?)

Following the passing of the Rwanda Is Safe (Ipse Dixit) Act, at #PMQs Jonathan Gullis celebrates the Untied Kingdom's government 'deporting' its first asylum seeker to Rwanda.

What he fails to mention is that the individual in question volunteered to be flown to Rwanda at our expense, sweetened with a £3000 lump sum, again at our expense.

And our Second-Past-The-Post Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, fails to call his attack dog to heel.

Gullis makes American Bully XLs look intelligent.

At the fag-end of #PMQs, the DPM Oliver Dowden boasts that "it was *this* government that legalised same-sex marriage..." in response to a plea from Labour to lift "the gay tax" that prices gay couples out of obtaining IVF to start their family.

Strange how Nastiz are sometimes so ready to identify all of the past 14 years of Tory rule as one seamless regime when on many other occasions (such as the Kamekwazi budget or Brexit) that's nowt to do with *this* Tory govt.

Was aware of the convention that #PMQs alternate between the govt and opposition benches but thanks for the intervention as I was under the impression the Order Paper was re-ordered from National Lottery order (balls as they appear) to an alternating order.

You're right. The Speaker interspersed seven Nastiz into the #PMQ order.

Which makes me doubly irritated:

a) it means that those who win the lottery may not get called if low in the batting order and... +

What's more concerning is this:

James O'Brien is incensed that Hoyle called Mark Francois instead of giving Diane Abbott a sort of 'Right of Reply' so I rechecked the Order Paper for 13/03:

commonsbusiness.parliament.uk/

And checked Hansard for the occasion:

hansard.parliament.uk/commons/

It seems #PMQs overran and Hoyle got only as far as #PMQ 12 (Sarah Dyke).

Why then call Mark Francois, who was NOT on the Order Paper? For balance? Mark Francois for balance? An oxymoron...

The Untied Kingdom's Second-Past-The-Post Prime Minister Rishi Sunak snidely demotes the Leader of the Official Opposition by referring twice to Sir Keir Starmer as "the honorable gentleman..."

Starmer was appointed by Her Majesty the Queen to the Privy Council in 2017. This means that the correct form of address is "The Right Honorable gentleman..."

Find it fascinating how the MP for Islington North still captures much of the debate at PMQ... and while PM and leader of the "opposition" keep dodging relevant topics... they never miss an opportunity to vilify One of the very few principled men who sits in that chamber...
