Prime Minister was Live on GMBHD itv 8:31AM 3/5/22

[arista]

In a few hours
he addresses the Ukraine Parliament
giving them £300million.

A Street in Odessa has been named after
Johnson PM.


Susanna Reid is outside 10 Downing St.
in the cold


She will ask him about the
Poor in the UK who can not afford the Energy Bills.

[Oliver_W]

She will ask him about the
Poor in the UK who can not afford the Energy Bills.

Well, quite.

Some people in the UK are facing a crisis of their own, £300mill could go a long way.

It would be better if the money was coming from the Foreign Aid pot.

[Beso]

She needs to let him answer.

[arista]

She needs to let him answer.


She made him say
something wrong?


Times radio said


I have recorded it
as had to go to an Early meeting

[arista]

It was at 8:31AM

[Cherie]

Terrible interview, she spoke over him too many times and his answers were pathetic

[arista]

She had too many Notes.


She was right to say
people pay their bills
is more important to UK public

[MTVN]

It was a weird interview really, felt like it never got going because she did most of the talking and then suddenly it was over so she didn't pace it very well

If you're a good interviewer you work it so that the biggest takeaways and quotes come from the person you're interviewing but felt like Susanna wanted the headlines to be from the things she said

[arista]

at 8:41AM


I agree MTVN

yep

[arista]

Elsie the 77 year old
stays on buses in the daytime
to keep warm.

Using Elsie
was clever.



Elsie can not afford her heating bill.

[arista]

Was Susanna trying to Cry?

[arista]

He asked
at the End who was Lorriane?

Just said on BBCnewsHD
who had a clip

[arista]

She would need a 45mins interview
to get something new.



At Least Lorraine

Heard Johnson say "Who is Lorraine"

[bots]

i dont think it was particularly weird. Susanna wanted to know what else Boris was going to do to help people pay their bills, and he responded with nothing. It was fudged a lot, but that was his basic response

[Cherie]

It wont help him on Thursday that is for sure :smug:

[bots]

It wont help him on Thursday that is for sure :smug:

most of england isn't voting, and thats where the majority of tory support is, so its not really going to indicate anything. London never votes tory :laugh:

Elsie should have been asking the questions.

Yes take the 77 year old Elsie
in there


At least she would be warm

Warmer than the bus that still has to have its windows open to ventilate for covid.:conf:

I dont really get the figures that were presented for Elsie, Susanna said she was paying 17 per month for energy which had risen to 85.00 a month surely these figures are per week ...she is in a band F home so 17 a month for heating does not make sense

Maybe she only uses one heater
She is in a High Rise small flat,
so it could well have been at £17

Very Predictable


Left Winger on LBC Live
going on about the 77 year old lady on busses
to keep warm

[Cherie]

Did George Eustace actually say, people should buy value ranges to offset the cost of living hikes :facepalm:

just seen this now...omg they really are dumb

What exactly is 'predictable' when it's the truth though?.

Boris once again shows he doesn't give a damn ,plus he lied about bringing in the bus pass. This interview was a mess ,all he ever does his mumble bs .

[Crimson Dynamo]

Problem is when you are the PM of 66 million people no matter who you are (or party) there will be hundreds of thousands of individual cases like this

Same as on Newsnight every week one person goes off on one about their personal circumstances

Yes its sad but you have to at least try and understand how a Government works

Sure
She is a clever 77 year old
buys yellow reduced ticket food
early in the morning.


And stays on warm buses through the day
to avoid her using her home energy supply

You do realise homeless people ride buses all day aswell,they're trying to keep warm as they have nowhere to go. This is the reality we're in.

[bots]

The problem that boris has is that he appears to have zero empathy for those experiencing hardship and that came across in the interview

[Crimson Dynamo]

Do you mean homeless people who have a free bus pass - how did they get the bus pass?

[MTVN]

Being honest nothing about that story really made sense but Boris can't say that

[arista]

They have to be 60
I think

[arista]

He is on TV news
at Southampton Airport

Smirking


He admits the Rwanda
deal will be held up
by left wing legals

[arista]

He wants you to buy the Supermarket brand
to save money.

He is saying in a way
go to Aldi and Lidl.

[Cherie]

She is in a council flat band F Susanna said...that cant be a small flat

[arista]

It was on GMBHD itv
her in the High Rise flat
that is smaller than a home

One Heater only
would lower costs

[Cherie]

Even so if her bill was 17.00, energy went up 54% that would be approx 26.00 a month...not 85.00!

[arista]

Look, they never gave a breakdown



All I am saying
is by using one heater only
it cuts the bill


Its a Flat
not full House
that changes the Council Tax

Elsie

Ahe should fasten up that blouse, it looks a bit drafty.

[Cherie]

Susannas figures were she used to pay 17.00 for energy and now pays 85.00...what breakdown do you need ...we need to know what year she was paying 17.00 a month...the 1970s probably
