The Express was confused by Question Time panellist Ash Sarkar’s ‘strange slang term’ – only 4 replies you need
The Daily Express was left scratching its head – like, really scratching its head – after one of this week’s panellists used a ‘strange slang term’ which left it utterly bamboozled.
The paper reports – we’ve read it so you don’t have to – that journalist and activist Ash Sarkar was ‘caught using a strange slang word that host Fiona Bruce said had never been used on the show before.
‘In response to Lib Dem deputy leader Ed Davey commenting on Labour’s Brexit stance, Ms Sarkar called Mr Davey a slang word.’
Seriously though, what did she say?
The Express is losing its mind because I used the word… “bro.”
No, I’m not joking. pic.twitter.com/gbZdnUdy4q

A seminal moment in the history of the show, we’re sure you will agree.
These 4 replies pretty much say it all.
lol at “caught”

Wait til they discover what the word means and that you’re not really related to him. FAKE NEWS!

I don’t think the problem is your use of the word “bro” somehow.. The Express probably think you should be cleaning the studio.

And while we’re here, enjoy Ash Sarkar’s face when Mark Francois says if the UK doesn’t leave the EU on 31 October, Britain will ‘explode’.
