Chris Bryant’s brutal takedown of Rishi Sunak is a devastating 90 second watch
As no-one anywhere needs reminding, PMQs has long become a grimly predictable – and predictably grim – affair, and Rishi Sunak is no different to any of his immediate predecessors.
But every now and again a moment breaks through and makes you sit up and listen. And this was very definitely one of those, a devastating intervention by the estimable Labour MP Chris Bryant which is 90 or so seconds very well spent.
Chris Bryant – Will he stop lecturing my constituents about holding their nerve, ditch the lame excuses, & admit he is literally the worst person to be leading this country through a cost of living crisis that he created. #PMQs pic.twitter.com/8hOnQ2kqJR

And Sunak’s response was everything you’d expect and less. Brutal.
Here are just a few of the things people were saying about it on Wednesday.

👏👏👏👏👏more please. We need more anger from MP’s they are the voice of the people. Well done Chris 👍

Excellent question from Chris Bryant: Sunak can only manage his threadbare ‘greatest hits’ routine. Meanwhile, Penny Mordaunt looks like she’d rather be anywhere than on that front bench. 👀

Ooooof !
"The PM has had responsibility for the UK economy now for 1323 days and he's delivered ….
He's literally the worst person to be leading this country through a cost of living crisis."
Bringing his time as chancellor into it.#pmqs #chrisbryant #rishsunak https://t.co/jVXcGVVfqt

If @RhonddaBryant doesn't get a job the Keir government, I will be fuming. He's clearly the most effective parliamentarian the Labour Party have.

Last word to the man himself (no, not Sunak).
