Penny Mordaunt’s face during Rishi Sunak’s miserable return to PMQs was surely all of us

Mordaunt, a once and future Tory leadership wannabe, hasn’t exactly been rewarded under Sunak’s premiership and is currently leader of the House of Commons, a job so demanding Jacob Rees-Mogg did it.

And we mention her because the look on her face as Sunak was shirking away surely spoke for us all.
