Journalist "Did you take a private jet?" Rishi Sunak "OH SO PEOPLE CAN'T GO ON HOLIDAY IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING?!?"

I am sorry but one word I don't like using is Hate. But sorry I hate Sunak his entire Party. He is a disgrace to this country. Couldn't answer a direct yes/no question. Just goes off on one about people going on holiday and plane transport. When are people going to waken up and realise what a fkn piece of shit he abd his entire party are.

[@ACsPianoCorner]

Rishi is simply an out of touch individual and politician. It always seeps out when he’s asked impromptu interview questions (I’ve said it before) and this proves it again. The interviewer never said “ban flights”, yet the PM pivots to outrage that the interviewer wants “no one to go on holiday”. Yet if he looked at the governments own statistics he’d know many people can’t even afford a flight to go on a proper holiday and overseas travel is down by 22%. He’s completely disingenuous and I truly hope the electorate sees through him.

[@eh1702]

The “ban everyone from going on holidays” move was a pathetic strawman, but typical of rightwing rhetoric these days. They are absolutely committed to dishonest rhetoric.

[@pault1289]

Absolutely, he's very reactionary and also thin-skinned. Any question of his choices like this and he gets upset. Hardly the kind of temper you want in a Prime Minister. It's a fair question - and he should be prepared to answer it politely and easily. That he can't, without resorting to some childishly hyperbolic retort, shows us just how bad at politics and leadership he is.

[@TheStevenWhiting]

Its really fing annoying when they do that. The presentors should get more angree and aggressive and talk over him more defending loudly "I NEVER said ban flights for holidays"

[@eh1702]

@@TheStevenWhiting That’s part of the reason they say these things: it’s as much of a win as sliding it past the interviewer unchallenged - it puts the interviewer on the defensive and shifts the discussion away from the question and onto who said what. It also personalises it to the interviewer and makes them seem like they’re having a row instead of interviewing.

[@hemanthathirumaran7654]

This might sound like a generalisation but I believe that a lot of his elitism stems partly from Asian culture. As Elitism and the worshipping of the rich is unfortunately too ingrained in the Asian societies. This is especially true if you look at the conservative cabinet. Whilst most Asians still vote for Labour, the most right wing members of the conservative cabinet are Asians. As someone who was born in a South Asian country unfortunately rampant elitism is far too common in these countries. Instead of shedding it, the second-third generation of Asians who have been brought up in the UK have retained it and whilst in positions of power are re introducing old elitist systems that people have fought to overcome for years.

[@benjones3466]

I feel this is just Sunaks' true unfiltered nature coming out here. Supreme entitlement, offense at being questioned, and using a 'what-about' argument so patently insufficient to defend himself it only reveals that he is so out of touch with normal life that he doesn't realise it's a ridiculous thing to say.

Someone needs to tell him the same goes for cars!! Efficient use of our time for work and play!!

[@michaelshanahan4042]

Well he is going to have to learn to deal with difficult questions isn't he if he wants any chance of winning a election which is just around the corner. he can not afford to hide away from the questions like boris Johnson did no hideing in the freezer for him 😊

[@unthenner5519]

He won’t see out the year, and they are getting annihilated

[@merseyviking]

Imagine what an easy win it would have been for him to go there in an electric car, or some snazzy new train or something. Like how unaware/uncaring do you have to be to head to a climate even in a private jet?

[@brianeduardo1234]

He never ever answers a question and then gets annoyed

[@Jaysusitsme]

Sunak has to be scripted, when not he really goes off pieste. He cannot blag it like Johnson could.

[@janetmalcolm6191]

He hasn't quite learnt Boris's mumbo jumbo speak. Just run away it's easier he learnt that from Boris though.

Petulant, ungracious Oligarch Oik.

Do as I say, not as I do !!

He is following Margaret Thatcher. She thought everything she said was not to be queried. Nothing has changed.

What I wanna know is, when in my lifetime, am I going to finally get the foot massage I've always deserved? If Rishi Sunak gets to have private flights here, there and everywhere, surely I deserve the foot massage!

Regional??? Scotland is a country not a region. An equal part in this Union apparently according to Mr Cameron in the 2014! More Tory lies.

[@annoloki]

Countries are regions

[@addermoth]

@@annoloki Simple research easily found: A region is a geographic area that is defined by certain characteristics, such as climate, culture, language, or history. Regions can be as small as a neighborhood or as large as a continent. The defining characteristics of a region can vary widely, and they can change over time. A country, on the other hand, is a political and geographic area that is governed by a central authority. Countries have defined borders and are recognized by other countries as sovereign entities. Countries can be made up of one or more regions, and they can be further divided into states, provinces, or other administrative regions. Understanding the difference between region and country is important when discussing geography, politics, and culture.

nice bit of filibustering there - and there is no such thing as viable carbon capture

I saw some really shitty graphic of it on the Beeb, with a lot of hand waving about it.

Correction. Radio Scotland isn't a regional station. Scotland is a nation.

Everyone complaining about him taking a private jet when this guy does the most important role in the country. Like there are exceptions to circumstances like heads of states and the army.

[@capt.bart.roberts4975]

Not if there's as quick a way to get there, that doesn't set the world on fire.

[@sportnation8885]

@@capt.bart.roberts4975 picking at the wrong things is not the way forward. Maybe celebrities and football players should get stick for taking jets

[@jordanwood3150]

I genuinely can't stand the tone of Sunak's voice whenever he speaks. He comes across like he's talking down to people, as if he's the most intelligent person in the room and nobody should question him.

[@Guide504]

It's straightforward. The question was baiting and rediculous.
