Starmer refers to Sunak as "Prime Minister" five times during PMQs

[Blackleaf]

Labour Prime Minister Keir Starmer today accidentally called former PM Rishi Sunak "Prime Minister" five times during the weekly Prime Minister's Questions in the Commons when MPs grill the PM.

Prime Minister's Questions is a weekly tradition in the Commons in our democracy when the people's representatives air their concerns to the leader of the country.

He seems to forget that the roles have now been reversed: He is the PM and Sunak is Leader of the Opposition.

It seems to be becoming normal now for our Prime Minister to refer to the previous Prime Minister as "Prime Minister". He has done it before, just after he won the election.

So. . . what's your batshit theory to explain this?

Either Starmer has a worse case of Alzheimer's than America's "Labour" President or both Starmer and Biden are a bit dim.

OK, that's batshit for sure.

OK, that's batshit for sure.

I reckon a combination of the two is the most likely theory.
