Make Me Prime Minister!

[StanSP]

Wait, no, please don't. 

 

Anyone else watching this programme on Channel 4?

 

Goes heavily along the theme and lines of The Apprentice, but policy- and PM-related tasks each week. 

 

Holly Morgan, previously in our women's team is in one of the teams. Jackie Weaver also there.

 

Alistair Campbell and Baroness Warsi are the 'judges' so to speak.

Oh, sounds interesting! 

 

I definitely don't have a thick enough skin to do a job like that!

Each to their own. I've probably not done it justice, mind.

I did Economics at uni and I do a bit of policy work as part of my day job, so I guess I have an interest in these types of things!

Fair enough!

[Facecloth]

I watched week one, and found the whole Apprentice style annoying.

 

Basically a bunch of idiots making up crap policies and waffling on without really understand what they are saying. Pretty close to real then actually.

[Parafox]

It's shiyt and another barrel scraping TV series.

[Nalis]

Ads look complete and utter shit.

You're massively over qualified for the job, then...

Haha, thanks! 

 

On a serious note, for me the biggest skill you need as prime minister is to be able to consult, listen and then make informed decisions. I can't believe how little of that seems to be happening at the moment.

I know a bloke who runs a corner shop who has a direct line to someone called Ali Express, he says he can source some knock-off PPE for £2.5billion. Can I enter?

 

If it helps, I'm prepared to have sex in my ministerial office and crash the economy to get a directorship with BP or Philip Morris International.

Is this a feeder programme for Love Island wannabe’s ?

Convinced Therese Coffey is some foreign agent or something who has been come in to sabotage the country. Surely no one can be genuinely that awful?
