Rishi Sunak was magnificently owned for his epically awful mobile phones skit – 13 responses worth ringing up
As he seeks ever less inventive ways to fill his time before he is inevitably turfed out of Downing Street, Rishi Sunak found the time to record this skit – is it a skit? – to promote his idea of banning mobile phones in schools.
And however cringeworthy you think it’s going to be, you’ve underestimated. And then some.
We know how distracting mobile phones are in the classroom.
Today we help schools put an end to this. pic.twitter.com/ulV23CIbNe

And it prompted a huge number of responses as you might imagine. We’ve read them all – well, quite a few of them – so you don’t have to and these were definitely worth ringing up.

i feel like children going without food for 6 hours at school is a much more pressing issue than them using a phone but that’s just me https://t.co/Q8gX6R6fKN

Most schools already ban mobiles and have done for *ages*.
Stop making out you’ve achieved something that had nothing to do with you.

Rishi, answer the phone. It’s one of your team telling you not to make the video because you’re going to be widely mocked. Again. https://t.co/5zqfRttPHv
