Really sorry, Nadine. In my defence, it’s hard to tell parody from reality… https://t.co/gABxJAauiJ

13. When she confused rugby union with rugby league
AUDIO of gaffe by Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries during speech at a Rugby League World Cup social impact event in St Helens earlier.
“I’ve always quite liked the idea of rugby league – my long-standing memory is that 2003 drop-goal… Wow, what a moment that was.” Listen 👇 pic.twitter.com/wD1FPJaK1e— Dan Roan (@danroan) June 30, 2022
14. When she criticised Labour MPs for not clapping Boris Johnson
1/2 At Blair’s last PMQs when he had just been ousted by Labour MPs led by @David_Cameron from the opposition benches, we stood and applauded his achievements.
Today the behaviour of Lab MPs shows how far @UKLabour has fallen. Graceless— Nadine Dorries (@NadineDorries) July 20, 2022
Or it just goes to show how little respect they, as well as most of the country have for a man who demonstrated time & again that he was unfit to hold high office.
He’s a fucking liar Nadine & people hate him for it & they hate you for enadbling it & denying it.
Good riddance. https://t.co/FwlNv2MPao— Jonathan Pie (@JonathanPieNews) July 20, 2022
15. When she shouted ‘you’re boring’ at Keir Starmer during PMQs
I’m not saying Boris Johnson’s closest allies have run out of defences for his actions, but the Culture Secretary is now just shouting “you’re boring” at the leader of the opposition. pic.twitter.com/eVbLHk1rMm
