Rory Stewart’s performance in the leadership debate looked like a drunken night out
The BBC managed to lure Boris Johnson out from behind whatever sofa he’s been using to avoid tough questions, such as “How many children do you have?”, when he appeared alongside the other leadership hopefuls to debate topics picked by members of the public. During the debate, JOE owner, Niall McGarry noticed something about the entertaining outsider, Rory Stewart.

James Silvester pointed out the all-important missing final shot.
Is there a 5th shot of him ordering a kebab he doesn’t really want and putting it next to his bed for the morning?

No prime ministerial hopeful in their right mind would ever be photographed with food.
