The Prime Minister insisted that they appear separately. And you can see some of her logic. She used the opportunity to kick lumps out of her opponents when they couldnt retort. You have diane abbott who cant add up sitting around the cabinet table. John mcdonnell, who is a marxist. Nicola sturgeon, who wants to break our country up.
