No tie Rishi. |
By:
Sunak is twice as bright as Truss.
|
By:
Yes he is but he's looking like a bully.
|
By:
Sunak seems very excitable.
|
By:
Sunak doing a lot of jumping in and shouting over Liz Truss when she is speaking
|
By:
Yes, he has to pull back on looking too overbearing.
|
By:
Liz's best option is to start crying as its highly unlikely she's going to grab the intellectual high ground..
|
By:
Truss will just drone on
|
By:
Since 1945 the Tories have been in office for 48 years. They repaid debt in just four of them. The total they repaid was just £7 billion in current prices, which is utterly insignificant. Tories simply do not repay debt. Why do they keep claiming they do and will?
Richard Murphy. Sunak far too domineering, he needs to let her speak and make gaffs. |
By:
And these two are the best the Tories have got. Surely not - god help us.
|
By:
I know the hand movements are important since Blair popularised them but Truss needs more practice,not flowing at all and way too stiff,needs more natural hand flow.
|
By:
Team Truss won't be doing this again - I'm sure she is not but Sunak makes her look like a dunce.

By:
We all know who the BBC want to win.

By:
Sunak was chosen to replace Johnson in last election.
Of course he's good at debates but he's speaking way too much. |
By:
i dont ....who ?

By:
Liz Truss is wearing one of them dresses popularised on
the apprentice, worn by candidates |
By:
You would hardly believe Truss is the more likely to win this vote.
Is this what democracy has juddered to? |

By:
Sunak starting to pick up audience applause
|
By:
Mic wright
Sunak’s moved on from shouting at Liz Truss to shouting at Faisal Islam. He looks petulant, like the head boy who everyone hates. Truss is talking absolute horse **** but she’s not remotely being rattled by him. She has the confidence of the happy idiot #BBCOurNextPM |
By:
... And applause for truss
|
By:
Sunak knows he is still well behind after that debate.
|
By:

Neither candidate won. The Tory Party won.

By:
absolutely nothing to fear for the Truss backers. the rich Rishi team obviously know that they are losing. his aggression done him no favours. at all.
|
By:
Sunak won, but by too much, so he loses.
|
By:
Interesting how they got a Tory voting audience. And this audience were all sensible for a change!
