Politics Andy burnham Kemi Badenoch PMQs
Kemi Badenoch appeared to make a sex joke to kick off Andy Burnham’s first PMQs and it wasn’t on anyone’s bingo card, anywhere
It was Andy Burnham’s first PMQs as prime minister and of all the things we had on our bingo card, this wasn’t one of them.
It was a question (eventually) from leader of the opposition Kemi Badenoch after the new PM’s marathon session at the despatch box on Tuesday.
And it prompted a lot of head scratching from people trying to work out if she really did mean to do a sex joke or not. Because … watch.

And there were lots of people convinced she knew entirely what she was doing …
the downside of having a hot prime minister is that the leader of the opposition will apparently flirt with him at the despatch box pic.twitter.com/pFBVgEKPIw
