I'm a Nigerian. And I enjoy watching these British Parliamentary sessions. The combination of seriousness, wit and dry humour is as good as any TV drama.

[markrozee]

OMG. Priti Patel has been fired twice for incompetence. Kemi must be hopeless to bring her back😮

[chrisnaylor]

If she is going to complain about scripted answers, she best not read that from a script 😂 That was brilliant 😂😂

[TheCam]

I'm so glad Kemi is spending her time asking the truly important questions such as "will you say sorry to trump" and "is trump invited to parliament". Was worried about getting frostbite, but this is truly more important

[AndrewWinstanley]

Claims the PM is reading pre prepared statements whilst reading from a piece of paper and looking as wooden as Pinocchio.

[pbworld]

I thought Priti Patel had retired from politics. That woman is a disgrace. Right now, I can't think of one likeable character there.

[qeitkas]

That smirky face of Patel is just unbearable to watch. She just loves chaos and despair. She is thriving on those.

[francismichaelgarrett]

Kemi talked about possible tariffs being placed onthe UK's goods and services by the Trump administration. Has she forgotten about Johnson's Brexit deal which resulted in tariffs being imposed on the UK? Such a short memory!!

[kalshinken]

Ever wonder why the UK is so reliant now on the special relationship with the US for trade, oh yea, Brexit happened under the Tories so we no longer have a close relation with Europe.

[StopTheRot]

Kemi has got about 6 months, maximum. Rule number one of being taken seriously as a leader: distance yourself from Priti Patel.

[TeznaGFX]

can we crop patel out of the next one lads?

[saskiamoni]

I like her to focus on domestic issues and less on trump

[wickharr]

Wow, Kemi’s bad at this. She looked so immature. She’s a gift to Labour haha

[maverick]

.As Keir Starmer Keir said as leader of the opposition, he learnt to listen to what was being said by the government. She still thinks she's in government!! Kemi Badenoch is not listening, as usual. Hallmark of the Tory party.

[Paul-ebjp]

She's wrong in saying the US is our biggest trade partner it’s still the EU despite the damage caused by her party.

[Jamic]

The read from a script comeback from Starmer was absolute pure class.

[verdebritanica]

Thank you to the Tories for selecting another leader destined for obscurity.

[barrywiles]

This girl is so pro Trump that she wants him invited to address Parliament. And her party cheers loudly. We have a MAGA Conservative Party. In the 1940s we resisted fascism. That party now embraces it. No-one will forget. If she thinks she can rely on Trump for trade she is still barking up the same tree as Boris. Europe is, and always was, our future and her party gave us Brexit.

[saskhan]

Why don't she stop with the jibes and actually do the job of the opposition and find solutions to the problems the UK is facing

[davidpeacock]

Evidently the new defence secretary failed to brief her propperly regarding increased defence spending in the budget. Completely amateurish Bad Enoch
