13 funniest things people are saying about robotic Rishi Sunak
Among the many qualities you might desire in a prime minister is the ability to look and act like, you know, a regular human being.
We know it’s a lot to ask of someone who actively desires a career in politics, and you might have thought that Rishi Sunak would be better at it than his predecessor, Liz Truss.
And you’d have been wrong, obviously.
First of all there was that most stilted of introductory speeches on Monday, followed by the comedy handwaving outside Downing Street on Tuesday. And these are our favourite things people said about it.

The programming of the Sunakbot wave leaves much to be desired.
Yes, the latency between waves varies, but the simple, repeated “1, 2, stop” wave algorithm is unconvincing. Adding parameters to randomise wave count or range of motion highly recommended.pic.twitter.com/vCjcMnnxax
