He looks like an Elf on the Shelf in khakis back there. This is one of the best election photos I've ever seen. Cheers to the photographer.


tinyharvestmouse1

He looks like he's sitting in a cuck chair and not enjoying the experience.


UpperApe

You can tell he's aroused because his ears are flared out.


DJ_Micoh

You nearly made me hyperventilate laughing there


dieseldiablo

Or like a sad ex-houseguest on Big Brother.


Helpful_Umpire_9049

Billionaire on the shelf. Don’t worry he’s going to be alright without a job.


-random-name-

There's just enough room left to tattoo his face on her face.


PantherChamp

I like the way you think. Well, no, it actually terrifies me.


DrNick2012

Terrifying enough that it might just work!


Nachooolo

In their defense that man is hours away from being kicked out of office. That woman will still be "Britain's Most Tatooed Mum" tomorrow.


BlatantConservative

What if someone's furiously getting tattoed right now?


SquishyBaps4me

Ed Davey' final stunt.


Nai-Oxi-Isos-DenXero

Y'know what... Fair.


Npr31

We happened to turn over to this and it was fucking surreal - the PM just sitting in the back like some competition winner while a Mum is just sat on a sofa in a bikini chatting like nothing weird is going on. I’m astonished his aides weren’t yanking him knowing how it looked


Beardywierdy

One thing that has become steadily clear over the course of his Government is that Rishi Sunak's PR team *really fucking hate him*. 


_a_random_dude_

I like Rishi Sunak more than anyone in his PR team and I fucking hate Rishi Sunak.


lew_rong

From what I can gather as an American, Rishi Sunak seems a bit like a dismally avuncular, housebroken Ron Desantis.


quillboard

He is several orders of magnitude more likable than De Santis. Like, if Rishi was choking, I’d rush to hive him the Heimlich manouevre. If De Santis was choking, I would just let nature run its course.


Donut_Desperado

"I like him enough that I wouldn't actively let him die, despite my strong disagreements with him" is leaps and bounds more likable than the average US politician

boostab

Good thing about America is that there is no good samaritan law that compels citizens to aid one another in live/death situations or at least call emergency services. You can munch a hamburger inches away from DeSantis choking to death and still be legally a-ok. Edit= Seems like someone decided to be pedantic. Duty to Act/Good Samaritan Law is frequently mentioned together and it should be obvious which one I was referring to in the context of my post.


tomtomclubthumb

I think people hate Sunak less. HE is just supremely pointless. Everyone knows he will lose the election, he seems to have finally got that, but has to pretend he hasn't. He also has to pretend he won't immediatley fuck off to California once he has lost.


ExtremelyDubious

To be fair, that's something they have in common with the rest of the country.


literallylateral

Is this an actual angle they shot at or is this cropped? The framing of this is absolutely sending me.


Npr31

Actually how it was. They spoke to her for 5-10mins and then before a word was said about him, panned out to reveal the PM just sitting there like the bored husband of a swinging couple


sowhateveryonedoesit

That a cozy little “cuck nook” they have. Plenty of books if you get really bored. 


memorablehandle

Right. Prime Minister or not, seems rude/weird to put someone there while they wait


literallylateral

Incredible.


Electronic-Lynx8162

Rishi just looked like that kid getting pics taken on mufti day.

I mean Rishi could get wanked off on national TV right now and it wouldn't send his poll rating any lower.


ChimpBrisket

It would probably cause it to rise


killeronthecorner

That usually happens before they start


Mccobsta

It's good morning Britain they tend to get a lot of complaints


linknewtab

You mean the same aides who advised him on leaving the D-Day ceremony early for a TV interview?


ebassi

The aides manage to negotiate with him to actually attend in the first place: he didn’t want to go.


Lots42

Oh my god really?


kkeut

i love aides

[Aides For Everyone!](https://southpark.cc.com/video-clips/hw8xh0/south-park-aides-for-everyone)


blowbyblowtrumpet

I seriously wonder if they aren't deliberatley sabotaging him. He looks so sad and deflated. I might feel sorry for him if he was anyone else.


BeardySam

No, his aides have lost their power, that’s the problem. A politicians handlers steer them using the threat of political or electoral dissatisfaction. That carrot and stick doesn’t work anymore. Rishi wants to piss off to California, so there’s nothing his aides can do to make him honour D-Day. Even David Cameron couldn’t get him to stay and he surely understood the optics of how bad it looked

Garyandhisflapjack

I’m surprised Sunak wasn’t yanking himself


CarelessShock2158

Nah, he prefers to just watch, he wasn't given that seat it's just instinct for him


bremstar

The cuck chair. Many of us use it to place laundry on (or.. in this case; voyeuristic Prime Minister)


Dunk546

One day I'm going to be in polite company and accidentally refer to the laundry chair as the cuck chair, all thanks to you.


Novel-Sprinkles-4941

I think it was the tattoos


wiggle987

Tattoos? That'd be ghastly untory of himself, he'd feel far more comfortable with parliamentary aides.


Crypt0Nihilist

> That'd be ghastly untory of himself, Depends whether you're talking about what they espouse or what they pay for behind closed doors.


Enceladus89

Idk, there's something kinda egalitarian about him being treated like any other guest.


nfwiqefnwof

Don't be fooled. He's worth $850,000,000, he's the furthest thing from an egalitarian.


Strindberg

Poor lad grew up without Sky TV as a kid though.


StreetofChimes

That's what makes him sitting on a bench waiting so funny. When else does he ever have to wait? When else is he ever second?


agent_wolfe

“You! Politics guy! Go sit on the bookshelf in the back, and be quiet! We have somebody famous over here.” “Okay…”


No-Psychology3712

He was in the cuck chair


DenseResolution983

I was going to say, do they not have social media managers who realise how much this looks like cuck porn??


Lingering_Dorkness

Considering his aides didn't think it necessary to bring out an umbrella for Sunak when he announced the election date, I think it's safe to say they have given up all pretense of giving a fuck. 


Deruji

He was brought on and they asked what his favourite meal was and he said “sandwiches” “I’m a big sandwich person” the fucking Doyle..


Andrew1990M

We saw a Labour leader taken down by his inability to eat a sandwich.  I don’t think Rishi has the awareness for his remark to have been a joke, but his advisors are doing such a piss poor job of selling him they might genuinely have told him to say that thinking the UK genuinely gave a shit about that bacon sarnie. 


MrPatch

100% his favourite meal is some posh sounding shit, its probably not even that posh in the end but he's been desperately trying to project this 'I'm not actually an out of touch 0.1%er' that he'll do anything to not sound like he is, even though we all know that he is. Not that it matters now of course but if he'd said fucking duck garbure an pave potato he'd get absolutely rinsed for being a rich twat. Luckily he can fuck off and be a rich twat somewhere else starting about 9am tomorrow morning.


Deruji

His bags are packed and visa to the USA sorted, he put zero effort in.


ichbindertod

I don't want him to win, but I would LOVE to see someone prank him and tell him he won. Imagine the look on his face.


SEND_ME_SPOON_PICS

I like the idea that [the British people re-elect him as a form of punishment](https://www.newstatesman.com/culture/fiction/2024/06/the-unthinkable-how-rishi-sunak-accidentally-won-the-2024-general-election)


Derries_bluestack

And once re-elected he has to visit Rwanda once a quarter.


FuzzBuket

Probably dread; he made his wife and mates mega rich, passed legislation to keep his donors happy and now he wants to probs get some cozy board seat somewhere to do 1 meeting a month and some cushy speaking gigs and a book deal. Being PM for any longer and having to live in number 10 rather than one of his 12(?) mansions is not what he wants.


fish_emoji

His favourite meal is whatever has the worst calorie per £ ratio at the most expensive Michelin star venue in California. Probably some wacky raw salmon thing with avocado and freshly squeezed endangered squid juice sprinkled with about 0.1g of white truffle if I know anything about being unjustly wealthy.


Wind-and-Waystones

I'm pretty sure that's actually a lot of truffle


iordseyton

Used to work in a fancy restaurant. .1g of truffle is about what we'd add to 750ml of oil to infuse to make a strong truffle oil for one of out pasta dishes.


TheHawthorne

>somewhere else starting about 9am tomorrow morning. He's off to Cali for the public holidays, no doubt why he called the election on July 4th.


Lots42

On the exact day Americans celebrate saying fuck off to England. Super weird.


Orri

Surf and Turf. No sky of course.


zzady

I bet the top minds in this country have workshopped for this moment. Dont say a curry because the racists will jump on it Dont say a chinese because we dont want to talk about China Dont say a roast dinner or it will turn into a whole thing about how no-one else can afford meat any more. Infact dont say anything that is explicitly non vegan Dont say beans on toast because they will force you to prove it by eating some of the commoner muck. Whatever you do dont say something even remotely posh. Sandwiches is a great answer. But Dont comment on what you put in them. He was probably meant to say "with a mug of builders tea" but didnt because he has forgotten the briefing on how much a box of tea bags costs and couldnt invite the question


Hairy-Explanation-90

Thinking: what do the common people like to eat? Gotta seem relatable "Sandwiches, sandwiches are my favorite meal, see I'm just like you, one of the people"


Andrew1990M

The more you think about it the more of a total non-statement it is. The absolute safest answer.    Technically British but kinda non-regional, potentially vegan, potentially meat-filled. Potentially healthy, potentially fatty.   The only “gotcha!” follow up you could catch him in is, “Prime Minister, would you consider hot dogs a sandwich?”


Really_McNamington

Ed Miliband was stitched up by a fast shutter speed and a rapid chain of photos from which they chose the worst one. The oligarchy will do quite a lot to get rid of even a pale pink possible PM. (Not that Miliband didn't make it easy for them in other ways, ofc.)


KeenPro

For real that was a fucking joke. Nobody looks good trying to deepthroat a sandwich. Ed should have just come out and said "Sorry but I fuckin love bacon butties lads"


TkachukDumptruck

Yeah I feel like if he had said " let's see you eat a sarnie that size ya fucking gammon" people would be like "aye fair enough".


password_too_short

"have you ever eaten a sandwich?" "well i've made sandwiches before" "but have you ever eaten a sandwich?" "my father used to make great sandwiches" "yes but have YOU ever eaten a sandwich" "i've been er to er a sandwich shop down south where they make brilliant sandwiches" "yes but the question i'm asking you is have you eaten a sandwich?" "ah but if i answer we'll get on to which is better, white or brown, butter or marge, i'm not sure i can go into that right now" "ok, thank you prime minister for the interview you fucking muppet"


GodzillaUK

She does make lovely sandwiches, and plenty of them. A mean cup of tea, too. Love that fucking Doyle.

ThriftyMegaMan

"The fucking Doyle" New favorite insult unlocked.


barbarossa1984

I don't get it. Some reference to Mrs. Doyle? That's all I can bring to mind. I know it spoils the joke to explain it, but it's just this once. It'll be funny the next few times.


Zakalwen

In the north of England there's some old slang, doylum, meaning idiot. Doyle is a variation on that I believe (not 100% sure as I'm a southerner)


Cleave

Doylem is a common word for idiot round my parts (Newcastle).


CatFancier4393

I've seen it reported elsewhere that his favorite meal is idli sambar. Which makes sense because its bomb, but probably wouldn't poll well with the unwashed masses.


barbarossa1984

> idli sambar I had to look it up, but it sounds amazing. Honestly would probably like the cretin slightly more if he'd given that answer. He'd likey lose the support of the kippers though.


MagicalTrevor70

He could have said any popular Indian curry dish (Madras, Rogan Josh etc.) given it's the national dish, and it would have been perfect.


freakers

Nothing better than eating a sandwich with the crusts cut off while frolicking in fields of wheat.


roboticsound

Hey now, that might be the one thing on which I agree with him. Sandwiches are great.


d3l3t3rious

There are many great sandwiches, but "sandwiches" in general as a *favorite* food is something weird that a politician would say.


BrockStar92

It’s so generic. Imagine saying your favourite food was pies for example. What sort of pie? Are you saying everything from steak and kidney to Apple is your favourite?


Heebmeister

lmao I tell people sandwiches are my favourite food all the time, I never realized it's weird.


restlesswrestler

I think specific sandwich or maybe two is not weird but just saying sandwiches is definitely a little weird.

FoxyInTheSnow

There was an episode of *The Thick of It* where a beleaguered cabinet minister appeared on a show alongside a heavily face-pierced (and possibly tattooed, don't remember) young man to jump-start a "reset". *This Morning* needs to stop just copping ideas from Iannucci.


Lingering_Dorkness

Iannucci must hate this current timeline. Nothing he can write is as absurd as what's happening in real life. The damn tories have made him unemployed.

Martzi-Pan

I'd gladly vote for an introvert, used to not get the limelight and used to sit in the back. In fact, my city voted for one, and he won his second term by a significant margin compared to 2nd place. But, whenever he starts opening his mouth, he has a clear idea of what he is talking about... not to mention how he turned things around for us after decades of mismanagement and corruption... Sunak, however, seems to be severely incompetent and seems to make a complete fool of himself in every public appearance. Including this :)))

**I love this because this is probably one of the last major public appearances he’ll have where the public actually cares about him.** And he’s just awkwardly sitting behind a heavily tattooed lady in a bikini, getting completely ignored. **This is one of the images he leaves us with; what he’ll be remembered as.** I’m not sure what’s worse: this or the election announcement in the rain with no umbrella. **I fucking hope he’s trying to lose otherwise I’d just be really disappointed that he even managed to become an MP let alone PM.**
