Michael Spicer was in the Room Next Door to James Cleverly and his empty chair
Recently, the Tories shared a video of a Keir Starmer interview from Good Morning Britain, which they had doctored to make it seem as though he had been unable to answer the question. Here’s the proof.
The Conservatives have been criticised for editing a GMB interview with Labour's Kier Starmer.

Tory Party Chairman, James Cleverly appeared on BBC Breakfast to counter the accusations, which he failed to do, before bailing on Sky’s Kay Burley, leaving her free to empty chair him – which must make him the Empty Chairman. Comedian Michael Spicer took on the challenge of explaining both interviews from the vantage point of the room next door.

Part of me wants the election to go on forever, mostly so there are many many more @MrMichaelSpicer Room Next Door videos. As silver linings go, they’re pretty incrediblehttps://t.co/7kk77C1Y7C
