I could be wrong but it looks more like they are having a conversation. He's not immediately taking advantage of the situation to call out and blame the tories for high energy prices, he's having a conversation and mentioning how his 15 year old son is really tall and would need a big onesie. He's talking wth her not at her. .

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
[email protected] appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

One of these situations where you look at the source of the story and it’s a basic outrage-headline-for-clicks site. I’ve never heard of skwawkbox outside of lemmy, where do they advertise?
I'm going to review it when I have a sec in terms of whether it's a source that should be used here.
A cursory glance at their record on Wikipedia suggests the answer may be "no".
They're fine. The story is fine. They came to prominence on Twitter. To act like they're a Fediverse thing is disingenuous. And the video itself, is whatever you make of it, some will explain it away, others will see Starmer failing to show any compassion or empathy.
I thought it would turn out to be owned by a Tory donor, but it appears to be some salty Momentum types still angry that Corbyn resonated with the British public about as well as a dogshit flavoured Pukka pie.
