    I know its hard for us to listen without audience laugh. But its harder for him to tell the joke without instant respose. Good job for the crew and stay safe everyone

      @Christian988. 3 роки тому

      Don't be sorry we did this to ourselves just like how trump won in a landline in 2016 Boris in an even bigger landslide in 2019 winning 365 seats out of 650 seats that's 43.6% out of a possible 100% the next closest party wasn't even within 150 seats of the Tories labour had only won 203 which is 32.2% out of 100%
      The benchmark to clear to declare victory was only 326 the Tories smash that with 365
      So we did this to ourselves we picked him and who we thought was going to fix the country turns out he's just another incompetent idiot. I myself did not vote for the Tories because I'm voted for labour.
