Hardly surprising, especially if you've seen Piers Morgan speaking about this ... I wonder what happens next?

The slime-ball Morgan lies through his teeth and denies all.

Sunak’s greatest wish is for a pair of long trousers.

His clothes are generally too small for him. I suppose they're trying to make him look bigger, but it just ends up making him look like a small child desperately waiting the hand-me-downs from his big brother.

He's apparently 5'7" but also very petite-looking, like a teenager after a growth spurt.

But in a way that's good - we should have more diverse people in power, cos the tall (fat) hetero white men have made such a mess of the world.

The worst thing about him is just how vacuous he is, making ridiculous empty promises, trying to play at divisive politics when his days are numbered.

Not helped in photoshoots with Cameron who is 6'1" >

That feels to me like it's just playing into the current popular rhetoric that skin colour is irrelevant, we're all equal regardless of sex (unless you're a white man in which case you're responsible for everything bad in the world). Plenty of black leaders have made a mess of their countries and some white men have done a good job. The problem isn't gender or skin colour, it's what motivates your decisions as leader (greater good or lining your own pockets).

hehe ... well that feels to me like #AllLivesMatter and #NotAllMen.

When the reality is that we (white hetero men) all lead privileged lives in a world created by white hetero men, so all attempts to redress society's systemic bias look like attacks on the status quo of our privilege.

(Good grief, my spelling is officially appalling now).
