Nadine Dorries Again!

[needawin]

Why are we watching Nadine Dorries spouting propoganda every time we turn on the tv lately?
Would have thought after her slurred speech interview on Channel4 she would give it up.

[naomi24]

I haven't watched her. What did she say?

[anneasquith]

She is damaging Boris even more when she is interviewed about him .

[aelmpvw]

//slurred speech// probably been to a party . . .

[royfromaus]

Every time you turn on the telly?
What sort of TV have you got a Toryshiba?

[grumpy01]

BBC anti government agenda to the fore again.

[Atheist]

Unfortunately for the tories, hardly any of them are prepared or are allowed to go on the news to try to defend Johnson. So they are left with the likes of Dorries, who can't say much more than "Am I bovvered?"

[anneasquith]

Grumpy, she did the interview willingly I Believe.

[naomi24]

You didn't watch Newsnight yesterday. atheist?

[Atheist]

Naomi; No, I saw her a few days ago. Has she improved?

[naomi24]

As I said earlier, I haven't seen her lately.

[grumpy01]

Maybe but surely answering questions about Twitter is one thing but suddenly asked a loaded question like”Have you communicated with the Prime Minister in the last 24hours?” Of what relevance is that?

[grumpy01]

That reply was to AnnAsquith by the way.

[Gromit]

The internet are calling the interview ‘bizarre’ and a ‘car crash’.

It isn’t pleasant viewing.

“ Have you communicated with the Prime Minister in the last 24hours?”

isn’t a loaded question
It’s a simple question.
The trouble is she doesn’t really have the nous to deal with blunt questions.
Instead of letting her make an *** of herself she ought to be protected.
It reflects badly on her colleagues

[grumpy01]

Ichkeria,it was asked in such away as to try to get her to talk about any conversation she had with Boris Johnson.Why does he want to know.Stayt has recently changed his line of questioning more in line now with his colleague.

[ichkeria]

All she has to say is “Yes”
Or “No”. It’s not really that difficult. And exude a bit of positive body language.
Instead she prevaricates and sounds evasive and any interviewer worth their salt is going to pounce on that.
At least he didn’t question her on her specialist subject (culture).
Then she’d have been in real trouble

Stayt wanted to know what Johnson's mood was. The Prime Minister last week said that "He got it..." indicating the there would be a change at Number 10 in light of recent revelations.

[naomi24]

What change do you think ‘I get it’ indicates, SP

[douglas9401]

Maybe the phrase relates to the puppy eyes look he was getting from her the other day.

'Surely not' you say, 'he's a married man'.

[ichkeria]

She could even have just said
“Look it was a private chat. MYOB”

Would have been perfectly reasonable
I thought she was about to do that but no

Hopeless
