Fool Of The Week - Andrea Leadsom Laughed At By David Blunkett

[@mandycouchbean]

Just the week ? Leadsome is a perpetual Fool!

[@kindmulberry7196]

Leadsom lives in Tory cloud cuckoo land!

[@jamesbriers696]

She has an honorary title, a fool emeritus.

[@teddansonLA]

Sure, but "fool of the week" has some of the strongest competition out there.

[@winstonwinand9130]

Is Leadsom going to be like Patel? To quote: My record speaks for itself. Why are these overpaid idiots still being paid to appear on TV and continue to be overpaid idiots.

[@FranzBieberkopf]

Andrea Loathsome more like it.

[@captainfrandad1138]

Former Tory MPs of no relevance continue to be given air time to spout their nonsense - WHY??

[@TheGlasgowGamer]

Because it is no secret that the media likes politicians who make people (except themselves) poorer.

[@starmersbarber]

I reckon Sky should be asked this directly. I can't take their brand of 'journalism' seriously as long as ghouls like Leadsom appear on their programmes.

[@melvinpenman1102]

Because they want you to accept that your choice is Blue Tory or Red Tory, no democracy here

[@lindacurrie8817]

​@@melvinpenman1102Labour is not red Tories. However Labour in government for 10 weeks give them a chance to try and correct 14 years of the Tories horrendous time in government. Not an easy task that can't be done in 10 weeks. Just be content that the Tories are out. Wonderful is that.

[@garryferrington811]

Why hasn't Labour fixed everything already? is the comment I see quite a lot.

[@davidmchale5890]

And that is why the tories took such a beating at the last election They live in cuckoo land

[@robertbolsover2397]

And the cuckoo's are complaining.

[@robertbolsover2397]

Thanks for the update on the quip. Cheers Bob 😀😀.

[@anthonydiggle2926]

I am surprised David Blunkett's dog didn't burst into hysterics as well, listening to such absurdity from Andrea Loathsome.

[@PatSmith-d5w]

His dog is most probably more intelligent and self aware.

[@chriswood3252]

Trump thinks the dog's already been eaten.

[@petesshed]

If it had... boy that would have made my day! 😂. Think I may have sent a year's supply of Winalot if it had

[@michaellawrence7570]

This is why the tories are the opposition

[@JT-si6bl]

tbh, they are far too incoherant to even qualify for that. What about an opposition that actually can help improve gov? I'm sure the opposition before and during covid actually 'drove from the back seat'.

[@mandycouchbean]

Zero Shame Zero Self Awareness!

I believe it's the qualifications to be a Tory

[@kindmulberry7196]

Leadsom is always fool of the week, who in her constituency thought. "Yeah I want her to have 5 more years as our MP". Absolute insanity

[@stephenford2758]

We were only 680 Billion in debt in 2010 with a AAA credit rating. In 2024 we now have a 2.75 Trillion debt and an Aa3 credit rating. The tories never built prisons so prisoners have had to be released early, The Conservatives have achieved their long term goal, of destroying the NHS, They were against it from inception and fought tooth an nail against it been created. And the economy is flatlining and has been flatlining since June 2024

[@brian5154]

Brings "lack of self awareness" to a new level........

[@michaellawrence7570]

This is why you never vote tory and never trust a tory and never believe a tory especially this disgraceful one

[@terrykirkland4452]

I always think the same when a Tory speaks this is going to be lies

[@mandycouchbean]

Loathsome by name Loathsome by nature !

[@mrwidestrides4802]

Diarrhoea Loathsome.

[@Number9s]

I believe I'm right, I may not be, in suggesting that Andrea Leadsom achieved such high office on account of the generosity of members of her close family to the coffers of the Tories, not her intellect.

[@AD65]

She ran for Tory Leadership in 2016.....

[@timothysimpkins6229]

Now she's nothing, a nobody. Now she history!

[@priscillaroberts7945]

She was never anything else. ​@@timothysimpkins6229

[@timothysmart8528]

But withdrew because she lied about her ‘career’ in the City

[@simonorourke4465]

Yeah she also claimed at the time that having had children made her the best candidate for party leader/PM. She is a joke and I have no idea why anyone should be interested in her opinion on anything.

[@PatSmith-d5w]

Didn't she say May wouldn't be a good PM because she didn't have children? That was the level of her reasoning then when she stood to become PM.

[@blazzz13]

Quite- and that she was a grandma when voting Brexit, as if there weren't grandparents who voted remain

[@mandycouchbean]

Great Choice ❤

[@candidaprout560]

Fool of the week!. Yes Max she makes a Fool of herself each time. Never had patience to listen her divagations

[@petermcfarlane6749]

Like all Brexiteers, Leadsom is a fantasist. No one outside of the media takes the ludicrous woman seriously.

[@Kevin-lf4xx]

The UK is in a dire financial position.

[@israeldepedro7522]

Did she really believe in what it came out of her mouth?

Leadsome is a senior Tory. She has to perpetuate the myths for the sake of Tory diehards.

[@andym.6141]

In the context of Andrea Leadsom I enjoy the words ‘former MP’.

[@maxharbig1167]

Andrea Leadsom the woman who "explained" to Pascal Lamy, President of the WTO for 8 years, how international trade really works. Maybe the video is still findable on KZbin if someone really wants a laugh.

[@briankerrison8504]

I would expect large pockets of society, has been a tinder box for a good while.. the drier it gets..the easier it will ignite..& this is what reform holds a torch up to.. 🤔🤔

[@ben_jam]

The problem is, the Tories and their majority media will cling on to this narrative, and if Labour don't improve things then they'll beat them with this continuously. UK voters don't do research remember !!

[@StephenUren-qb6ff]

What is the point in inviting on Andrea........but more importantly, what is the point of Andrea Leadsom!

[@fritzhenning1]

There are virtually no tory MPs which the public recognise so the media have to roll out past ministers.

Loathsome leadsom. Please just tell her, "you lost, get over it"!

[@ChristineDixon-lq5np]

The fact of the matter is, is that the tories are now taking great delight in pointing out the failings, but FAILING to acknowledge that they are responsible for them all, after FOURTEEN years in power. Disgraceful

Andrea Loathsome tries to insert a falacy as truth and then resorts to the good old standard tory tactic of being patriotic and quacking on about 'business confidence'

[@abenaid11]

She's been fool of the week for years.

[@paultaylor7082]

Loathsome is now an ex MP, she's also the wrong side of 60, so her political career is well and truly behind her now. The only thing she'll ever be remembered for is her idiotic gaffe in 2016, during the Tory leadership campaign to replace Cameron. She then claimed she'd make a better PM than Treeza, simply because she'd had kids and Treeza hadn't. As well as being an example of idiotic reasoning, many people thought it also rather offensive. That well and truly kyboshed her leadership campaign, she withdrew from the contest and left Treeza as last woman standing. It seems, watching this interview, she's got worse, denying the reality..
