On vaikeita päiväksi. Hänen sisällänsä on aina iltapäivä. Olen erityisesti saanut tietoja hänelle, miten voidaan saada ystäviä. Tämä on for the person, who previously called us orcs and goons. Mutta olen goona, joten kuten aina, hän on vähemmän kuin puoli oikeaa.

Do you know, it wasn't me.

I was told to just sort of, you know, come in very quietly.

But I ended up pressing a video clip of what I wanted to talk about.

So the noise technically wasn't me, it was in fact the former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak talking from the BBC Newsite Twitter feed.

That's what it was.

And it was quite a relevant quote actually, but I'm not sure that's how we intended to introduce the subject matter.

Well, it's very messy, isn't it?

And to sort of ratchet back immediately to the conversation I had with Rishi Sunak.

We were having a conversation about, you know, what he thinks is the big thing right now in a way that former prime ministers try to, like, you know, the younger elder statesman kind of opining about on this occasion, kind of AI impact on the economy jobs.

Clearly, I was always going to take the opportunity to try and sort of work out.

some of the questions you've been posing about the precedents being set that do seem quite extraordinary to people not in the Westminster Beltway, or whatever we call it these days.

And in particular, I said, did you ever get told about a failed security vetting?

Would you have sacked Ollie Robbins?

All that sort of stuff.

He didn't really want to be drawn on that, but then he did say something which I think was

fairly newsworthy for someone that doesn't hugely want to get involved in the nitty-gritty of political point scoring these days.

So the situation is going to really damage trust between officials and ministers.

We need our government to govern, and when it's dealing with this, that's what it's not doing.
