It’s worth trying to sit through this whole clip and then estimating how many brain cells in your head died during the process.

Imagine being a grown up and finding yourself on the radio with a straight face talking about Peppa and Daddy Pig as role models and someone who just embarrassed your country to the world, again, being a great communicator, or writing tweets like this when you are over 16.

“He is without any question one of the world’s greatest communicators.”

I cannot stop watching this. It’s one of the most peculiar things I’ve ever seen, which given the venue, is really saying something. Get to the end (if you can).
I would like to mark the sad resignation of Nadine Dorries by fondly recalling the historic occasion on which she learnt how the television station she was planning to sell was funded, live on air.
Dear reader: the station was never sold.
