Johnson had nothing to offer today.
If he hasn't learnt that when Starmer asks a question, he already has the answer and all the evidence he needs...
The Johnson populist waffle ain't going to cut it any more. He needs to know detail and truth.

Yes, but that would have been the case with Corbyn too.
It's when 300+ nanny coddled, gin and tonic bladdered Tory MPs are screaming you down that reality will hit Starmer's 'new consensus politics'...jut as it did with Corbyn's initial attempt to debate that way.

The hole just gets bigger, I know what my next question would be if I were Starmer

Yes. This is all fair enough. He was caught out. The hoped for 'forensic' approach of Starmer appears to bear fruit. However, that sort of tripping up is needed in normal politics. These are not normal times and politics isn't normal.
The LP leadership have to start cracking skulls and calling for resignations and u-turns on policy, not for the sake of it, but because it'll save lives.
I dunno, I think Starmer's approach will in the end force Johnson into accountability as he hasn't been able to bluster his way out at all, I know an empty house is helping Starmer in that regard.
Early days though
This could be an inconveniently timed problem for Sir Starmer ... Remainers will react with fury if he poo poos this...
Remainers Attempt to Scupper Trade Deal With Dodgy Claims
A rump of Remainers in Parliament spearheaded by Simon Hoare has proposed a host of wrecking amendments to the Agriculture Bill, which would serve to scupper new trade deals around the world that have been enabled by the UK’s exit from the EU. Many of the MPs involved are, unlike Hoare, not from rural constituencies and instead have a history of Brexit obstructionism. Hoare has been on his feet in the chamber this afternoon promoting the wrecking attempt…
These wrecking attempts have been bolstered by a proxy campaign from Friends of The Earth, who have instructed their obsessive troops to bombard MPs with a stock letter about the launch of trade talks with the US. As is to be expected, it contains misunderstanding, slight of hand, hyperbole, and outright falsehoods. Guido has helpfully trawled through and picked apart the points the letter makes…
On a side note, seeing how political these 'environmental charities' are is why I reject the green agenda. They aren't neutral. Disgusting when there are excellent opportunities for the UK to be more ecologically minded and independent when it leaves the EU agri policy, fishing policy, etc etc

Even won the Torygraph over for once. I need a lie down.

Keir Starmer took Boris Johnson apart like a Duplo train set
At PMQs, the new Labour leader asked a series of calmly factual questions – and the Prime Minister visibly struggled

Think he’s great to be honest.
The video of him questioning why the Government chose to suddenly stop publishing the European death comparison once we had the highest death toll in Europe was a fantastic bit of controlled interrogation.
Sometimes it’s not even the things you say as much as the way you say them.

He's very good. Makes all the difference having someone credible leading the opposition.
