Ian Hislop’s glorious takedown of Priti Patel went viral all over again and you can’t watch it enough
Not the first time we’ve featured this moment from Question Time back in the day, but it’s one of those moments which will surely never age.
It’s Ian Hislop’s glorious takedown of Priti Patel over capital punishment which was sent trending again after the Home Secretary’s speech at the Conservative party conference.
If you haven’t seen it already you’re in for a treat, and if you have then you’ll know it bears repeated viewing.
While Priti Patel is trending, let us remember her flawless argument in defence of the death penalty.#CPC21 pic.twitter.com/tRMynugRHg

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that we ended up with the wrong bloke off ‘Have I Got News For You’ in government?

I’ve seen this clip plenty of times before, and the scariest part is that I’m sure Patel came away from the exchange still believing her position was entirely reasonable and considered.

Any chance we could have Ian Hislop run the country for a while? https://t.co/ufxBfDWjFN
