In 2005, Gavin Williamson was in the news. At the time, he was the managing director of Aynsley China, a Staffordshire-based pottery firm.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏👏You're Great, James!
I am fairly sure that the Queen actually asked that he not be invited. She had after all met him!
I want so much to believe this is actually the case haha. Imagine the hit to his ego that would have?
The requirements for becoming a Knight of the Realm have certainly dropped off in the last thousand years. When did narcissism become a requirement?
Ronnie Kray would receive a knighthood today, I'm convinced.
And he would be by far one of the better recipients going by past and present.
He was at least a successful businessman.
Cronyism at its finest.
He didn't go to the right schools so I doubt it.
“Poor me”. Nasty piece of work.
The stench of entitlement of the ruling classes
A GE is urgently, urgently needed.
This government is the gift that keeps on giving, just as you think it can't possibly sink any lower, it does, at least it keeps us amused.
The 'i'm fine thanks' line had me loling
Williamson should be sacked immediately, no question. He would be in any other walk of life. Even the Labour Party would sack someone for this.
Rebecca Wrong Bailey went for far less
You just can't help yourself can you, what has this got to do with the Labour Party. Just clutching at straws to convince yourself that voting Tory all your life was a sound decision.
Remember the Owen Patterson attempted cover up.
We need Reform 🇬🇧
Any other job you would be fired on the spot. He should not only be fired but stripped of his knighthood which I really don’t get why he has. If this continues to be allowed what message are we sending out to the younger generation. It should be zero tolerance to such bad behavior.
In 2005, Gavin Williamson was in the news. At the time, he was the managing director of Aynsley China, a Staffordshire-based pottery firm. People had been physically fighting on shop floors for their plates commemorating Charles and Camilla’s wedding, which seemed destined to become a collectible. They were unlike any other commemorative plate for the event - because every single one was embossed with the wrong date.Early incompetence.
If that's a Sir then i'm a Lord
James put that across brilliantly 🤣
Now we all know how he treats his wife.
We don't.
....do you?.
Robold is obviously guilty of the same sort of gaslighting that O’Brien purports to hate! Don’t you just love the double standards?
@@nick1065 .
An unhinged radio host calls an unhinged politician unhinged. Britain 2022 😂
😂
I wonder if the vet could work out why the dog was poorly, because now it's obvious to the nation.
Dog will be pleading for a few days "observation"...hope it's insured.
Seriously, hope the poorly pooch pulls through ok.
It has no choice in the owner stakes.
I suspect it was the tarantula, not the dog. Gav had been pulling a few legs off it.
did o'brain write the headline himself!!?? 🤣
...one of his epic teenage producers....
Hysterically funny. And sad. And infuriating.
Really? All those mixed emotions might suggest something else….
Job wouldn't have a job if it wasn't for the Tories and Brexit.
He's made a fortune 🤑
Wonderful as usual James.
🤮
....oh James....my hero...😂.....
@@nick1065 yup you and chatham43 are definitely the same person. So sad. Is it because James is extremely popular and wealthy and you're not. 🤣
@@digbycrankshaft7572 Do you hear voices in your head too?
proper tickled me the "how are you" bit ahahahah
Sunak has done himself and the Conservative party no favours by bring Williamson into his cabinet. Promoting a seriously dim-witted ex fireplace salesman to a very senior position was not a bright move.
Maybe Sunak thought "going up in flames" was hearth warming for the freezing peasants?
HOW ARE YOU??!!
I'm fine.
That's hilarious.
I HAVE fired people for far less.
Wish she had asked 'How is your dog?
Reminds me of that supposed telegram a journalist sent to Cary Grant on his birthday.
"How old Cary Grant?"
To which he replied, apparently, "Old Cary Grant fine, how you?"
I was just thinking of that quote myself. How weird!
@@peterswires8439 Get out of my head. :)
Hey, guys! Let's have some sympathy for Gavin's dog. It probably got bitten by a tarantula!!
More likely a vicious kick after each text, and a chokehold after the "I'm fine thanks" reply.
There should be an enquiry into Williamson's knighthood, I can't find one single positive thing he's ever done.
...Sir Keirs is well deserved however...he has dedicated his life to be a well paid barrister.
@@chatham43 Service to Law and Criminal justice, whether you agree or not, it's understandable, now back to the original point of Williamson with his record of failure.
He took his dog to the vet!
@@chatham43 More deserved than Williamson's so what's your point?
Oh wait you have no point lol
@Tae...more deserved doesn't make it deserved...but you know that.....
Integrity. Professionalism. Accountability. 0/3 Gavin. Rishi, take note
I once said Johnson's cabinet was full of incompitence, but Sunak's is a close second with Braverman, Coffey, Zahawi, Williamson, Raab et al.
It's the same people, so of course it's going to be incompetent. They just get shuffled around like turds in a litter tray.
Williamson is the government's equivalent of Sid Vicious.
And O’Brien is the media’s Jonny Rotten.
@@nick1065 A talented lyricist writing eviscerating put-downs for public delectation??
@@ToniLCD Er…..no. A talentless gobshyte who gaslights and deludes his merry troupe. ‘Ever get the feeling you’re being ripped off’?
Tories are vampires, every single one of them. Gavin is clearly having a hard time not getting the blood supply he clearly needs!
....incisive as always Pablo.😊
How well balanced you are Pablo. Those chips on your shoulders are like O’Brien’s…..one huge one for each.
Give him credit for prioritizing his dogs health over Tory politicking.
His one shred of humanity.
James’s laughter is very contagious 😅
Or creepy
....X -Rated ....😊
The " How are you" bit was so funny, proper laughed out loud
