I never thought I would agree with Rayner, Shunak's self PR is beyond embarrassing.

Britain is politically broken from all sides

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

He should , as should any leader, just be himself. This fakery is nonsense, both sides have this problem.

It would be scary if he thought it was a good look.

I really think the UK is in steady decline which started late 90's.

Nothing to do with Brexit, it's just a steady spiral down with the elected politicians being totally partisan and treating it as a method of self enrichment.

At least we're not Scotland which is worse.

It seems these people will never learn. I think of William Hague telling of how he used to drink 15 pints a day and appearing on some fair ride wearing a baseball cap, Gordon Brown solemnly saying in a video that he was a fan of the Arctic Monkeys, Liz Truss being photographed in a tank, Johnson clashing elbows with every nurse he saw on his daily hospital visits. They treat us like fools, and it's all so depressing. I wonder how much these advisers get paid.

Actually he claimed to be a Newcastle fan who stood on the main terrace watching "Wor Jackie" (Jackie Milburn) the problem with out as any Toon fan could point out was that JM had left the club by that time.

Back on Sunak and a bit of FYI my friend volunteers at the passage it's just around the corner from Victoria Station. It does good work for the homeless.

The exchange with Sunak was cringing but also understandable. What do you say to someone who lives in the street "how's your day been?"

My point is that we should not judge someone on that, of course it was embarrassing but unless you are used to speaking to homeless people I expect some of us would also be as clunky with our language.

I will judge him on his actions.

One more point

Was David Cameron and he forgot he was a Villa fan when he flew over Upton Park.

Give Boris his due, he was natural with that stuff, as anyone who was tackled by him will attest.

But it is a s*****w. Just as shame the alternative is every bit as unpalatable!
