The National:

RISHI SUNAK’s official Christmas video has dropped and it really disappoints. In spectacular fashion.

The video starts off with the Prime Minister writing a letter at his desk in an empty Downing Street before descending into a Home Alone or Hugh Grant in Love Actually-esque scene – playing cricket in the hallway, watching Elf while tucking into some spaghetti and attempting to give Larry, the Number 10 cat, a kiss – to which the feline visibly recoils.

Larry, yet again, capturing the mood of the nation.

“Ffs. Make it stop,” said LBC presenter Sangita Myska on Twitter/X.

Gerry Hassan added: “Rishi Sunak continues his tradition of cringe worthy videos & images made at our expense.

“All underlying how clueless & completely out of touch he is with the state of the country he is PM of.”

Nick Tyrone, meanwhile, said: “He’s medically incapable of not coming across as weird. What is he trying to convey with this? Again, No 10 comms, falling on its face.”

Campaigner Bradley Wall asked: “I want to know how much tax payers cash was wasted in the making of this.”

The Jouker can only agree, a truly awful video.
