PMQs - first thoughts 12:44 - Sep 7 with 1006 views | Ryorry | LT already showing that she can't think on her feet. KS coming into his own with her, she's unable to deal with his relentless pursuit on energy, esp re windfall tax - her face crumpled after approx his 5th dig in on the same issue. She hasn't got the bombast & bluster strategy to wriggle out of being pinned down like that, unlike previous incumbent. |  |

I thought she was better than Johnson, but that's a very low bar. A lot of answers were made by simply referencing her new appointees. I thought at times that the ordeal of the job was beginning to get to her, and I think that will only get worse. I found Kwarteng insufferable. [Post edited 7 Sep 2022 12:56]

PMQs - first thoughts on 12:58 - Sep 7 with 859 views | Darth_Koont | That’s all very well but PMQs is about as relevant and as real as wrestling smack talk. It’s a thin veneer of political seriousness playing to a gallery of breathless fanboys and fangirls. And political journalists looking for content so they can crap out another meaningless and superficial column. Or fill 5 minutes of airtime with something, anything. |  |

The positive from Starmer’s perspective is that he’s created a dividing line on windfall taxes where public opinion is on his side. |  |
