Tory MP Embarrasses Herself When Attacking The Government!

Helen Whately, the Shadow Work and Pensions secretary has been an MP for years, but she doesn't seem to have perfected the art of parliamentary theatre. She was attacking the government over a new bill on employment which includes a plan to reduce people on benefits.

And suddenly the Tories have the best interests of people on benefits at heart.
Stupid ignorant toff.

[peterjohnson]

The Tories are so used to being on GB News that they are no longer able to debate in Parliament.

[countdrakilla]

She has the nerve to talk about jobs its a pity she and her useless tory cronies didn't do their jobs for the past 14 years !

[justin]

She say's that Reeves' budget has damaged the economy! Is she deliberately forgetting about Kwateng?

[ShaneDGri]

The worst of it is she read it from a prepared script.
And still couldn't deliver it....

[thomasmoore]

This woman has always been useless at whatever job she is given, how she survives is a mystery

[StuartMiles]

Poor Ms Whateley. A disgrace to Kent and the most pathetic of performers in the Commons.

[Milo-wlif]

Whatley is so pleased with herself, so unaware of how ridiculous she is.

[TheWhistlingDixie]

As soon as I see her face on the thumbnail I just sigh and think "oh what has she said

[martinradcliffe]

Whately doesn't seem like she could cross the road unaided.

[Britishman]

She claims that businesses are being dettered from taking on the economically inactive people due to the measures in the recent budget, but why weren't they creating these jobs during the last few years of Conservative rule?

[michaelpeirce]

Again an conservative MP embarrass herself

[robertwilliams]

🤣🤣🤣🤣...there isn't anyone in the conservative party that can do anything apart from ignore the last 14yrs of their own tenure.... I'm still reeling that British politics looks like this. Woeful!

[ChrisHarrison-nf]

the sharpest tool- on a par with Philp, Coutinho & the rest of them.

[User-xvw]

Fool of the Week & it's only Tuesday ! 🤡🤣

[stephenblanchard]

...will Whately ever learn....I doubt it....what an embarrassment....

[petefl]

After 14 years of showing how incompetent they are at government Tory MPs start lecturing Labour of to do things.

[realcapitalist]

I had a hunch you'd pick up on this performance Max! I saw her on the news item exclaiming (dramatically): "14 years to make a plan and this is it?"

The lack of self awareness is staggering! If you thought the Tories were bad in government, they're plumbing the depths in opposition.

[chilloutcentral]

This is why no drinking should be allowed in parliament

[kevinwalton]

Absolutely pathetic display . More wood on display than in Sherwood Forest.
