HOW IS HE SO BAD AT THIS?

He should’ve said, ‘Look, I was very fortunate growing up, there’s no point denying that. What I want is for every child to have the opportunities I had, that’s why our policy is to blah, blah first-time buyers blah tax, etc., unlike Labour who want blah VAT on private schools, blah’.

Instead, he gets immediately rattled and starts gibbering at the first follow-up question. He is just the worst.

By the way, this is the interview he thought was so important he had to run away from Normandy to do it. Apparently, it wasn’t important enough for him to do any prep.

    Why do you need Sky TV? Freeview ought to be enough for everyone.

    Hell, I’m not didn’t in the UK and I enjoyed CBBC. I can’t remember how I got access to it (because geoblocking, which is bullshit), but I liked it. I can’t say the same about news programming because fuck that amirite?

        They still had some cool stuff I’m sure.

        Also, wasn’t CBBC a programming block during this time as well?

          Now, you mention it, I do remember that. They used to do Marvel Hour on Saturday, with the X Men show. It was the tits.

            I wasn’t around for that stuff and I kinda wish I was.

            But even then, I wasn’t in the UK anyway.

        That’s why you made friends with someone who had it. Then you went around their house and ate wagon wheels and watched Totally Spies, and felt things.

        Sad. We had free to air versions of those on satellite (although Nick closed in 2011 for… honestly I have no idea why they closed it down)
