Rishi Sunak goes full Partridge during LBC interview

Rishi Sunak gave us his best Alan Partridge impression during an LBC interview today.

The prime minister, who has been having a tough job of convincing people he’s a normal human recently, took voter calls on Nick Ferrari’s show, but things didn’t go as smoothly as he might have liked.

The clip has prompted a major pile-on on social media.

Here’s a taste of the reaction:
