I suspect it was easier just to say OK than to kick up a fuss, given there was probably a collective sense of relief he was buggering off.

How very British to not want a fuss.
The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

Labour seem to have chosen to solve the problem by adding even more members including Sue Gray.

I'd like most of the politicians removed and then an independent selection panel created to appoint people who will add knowledge and scrutinise legislation.

"Independent".
Funny. We couldn't even find an independent computer algorithm these days.

Badenoch couldn't help chomping on the bait and seems to have made a false claim when she did.
Lots to learn

You'd have thought with her computer knowledge of hacking websites she'd know what she was talking about in this instance.

Has Braverman clarified what she went to when she thought she was at the wall between Italy and Turkey?

Here it is.

It reminds me of the time everyone made a big deal out of Hunt referring to his wife as Japanese. They seemed to think he didn't know her nationality as opposed to simply misspeaking.

I see she has clarified she meant to say Greece, not Italy.
0 -
That was just odd.
0 -
Wasn't that obvious?
0 -
No. Besides, it's not much better than confusing China with Japan, is it?
0 -
Not really - she'd already mentioned Greece. Could have been anywhere.

If you say so, but if someone is talking about a border between x and y, and it doesn't make sense, I would expect one of x and y to feature in what they meant. Given Italy's borders are open, then Greece/Turkey seems like the obvious intention to me. Of course, it could have been one of Turkey's other borders such as Cyprus, Iran, Syria, Armenia or Georgia, but none of those really fit into her point.
This is the current level of political discussion though. I'm sure she was making a disagreeable point about something which could have been discussed and criticised, but instead, everyone gets to focus on the great gotcha.

Hey, they all look like Super Mario and drink sweet tea, so it's an easy mistake to make, and there aren't any unfortunate connotations whatsoever.
It is such a shame that whenever she speaks and nonsense comes out, people are so hard on her.

I just asked if she'd clarified, and she has.
Forgive me for not successfully guessing what mistake she'd made.
I've been trying to find a recording of what she said about Israel on that same show but haven't yet. I think that might be more interesting.

They're all the same to her and all like to wave through immigrants flooding to the UK.

You don't need to guess if you are not able to, but your comment implied that she had gone somewhere and not known which country she was in. This seems a lot less likely than misspeaking.

She says a lot of nonsense which should be criticised, but people seem to always focus on the stuff they don't understand e.g. multiculturalism in an attempt to make her out to be stupid.

True. That's probably bad wording on my part. I don't think she was there wondering why all the road signs in Italy had weird letters on them.
She only thought she'd been at the Italy-Turkey border in retrospect.

She is doing that all by herself.
I refer to my earlier and much criticized lament that it would be nice to have political leaders who are smarter than us.

I thought that nobody was smarter than the wise middle aged men of Cake Stop? If so, the only way your wish will come true is if Cake Stoppers form a political party and get voted in.

I'll stake my claim. I'm a chartered accountant and have more financial and business experience than the current incumbent (although that's a pretty low bar).

A certain irony in the two posts above.
