‘The optics of a PM being rained on as he calls this general election is not ideal’
that image of him at the lecturn raining down on him and then stepping away and his back turning toward us and going through the door and the back of his soup jacket is drenched I mean that is I’ll be honest it’s not the image they’re going to want as so it sounds just start I have to say the the Optics of this uh I remember when he did a speech on extremism and it was a last minute thing in Downing street again and it started raining and you know even when we were talking about uh calling a general ction today I I did sort of say uh to some of our colleagues the Optics of a prime minister being Reed on uh as he calls this uh general election is not ideal Optics which is why I thought he might actually uh do it in down street uh he decided not to maybe he could have had someone holding an umbrella but anyway um he has called uh that general election

"july 4th for the election, but as my Buddy would say " but it's raining, raining in my heart"😢😢
Sums it all up tbh 🤣

Gotta say he wasn’t the worst he’s ahead only of Boris and Liss 😂🎉
I can’t afford dentist my back teeth are all out and others are on the way
