Rosie Holt’s Tory MP defending that Boris Johnson party photo totally nails it
Just as sure as night follows day, those photos of Boris Johnson with glass in hand at a Downing Street party prompted a roll call of Tory MPs – some you’d actually heard of – leaping to their leader’s defence.
The better news was that comedian Rosie Holt has now distilled every one of them into this perfect parody which is now going viral on Twitter.

Totally nails it.
Actually more cohesive than some of the interviews people have done defending this. Chapeau as ever.

I agree. I feel for Rosie because some of the actual statements Tory spokespeople have made recently in defence of the PM have been so far fetched it’s very difficult to parody them.

And we look forward to the mounting fury of the usual suspects who won’t realise it’s a joke.
Rosie Holt just gets better and better
I am surprised Boris Johnson doesn't hire her to do his news rounds https://t.co/r4OdN1w8Zb
