Rishi Sunak’s ‘parody’ Brexit video gets savaged

"What on Earth is this?", Mike Galsworthy said after watching the video.

Rishi Sunak released a ‘public service announcement’ ahead of the Tory leadership debate last night.

The former chancellor put out the black and white video filmed in old PSA-style to underscore his credentials on Britain’s split with the European Union.

It comes as he clashed heads with Tory leadership rivals Liz Truss and Penny Mordaunt as the contenders to succeed Boris Johnson faced off in a second televised debate.

At one point Sunak asked Truss whether she regretted being a Lib Dem or a Remainer more, but it spectacularly backfired.

Sunak to Truss: “You’ve been both a Lib Dem and a remainer- I just wondered which one you regretted most?”

Truss put Sunak in his place by reminding him not everyone comes from a traditionally Tory background.

She replied: “I was somebody who was not born into the Conservative Party” unlike he was, saying she saw kids being “let down” at her school because they did not get the proper educational standards that “you might have got at your school, Rishi.”

A game-changing moment for @trussliz.
Rishi thought he'd set a clever trap, but instead presented her with an open goal. Watch the smile, the stiffness disappear, the fluency emerge, the passion grow. That's #LizForLeader authenticity. She needs to find more of that.#ITVDebate pic.twitter.com/7GCeOudrQU

Ahead of the debate Sunak tried to set out his long-term support for Brexit in a video that has been widely saved on social media.

Mike Galsworthy compared it to a “parody” film, while Otto English and Peter Stefanovic also called out some blatant “lies”.

What on Earth is this? A parody?

… because it is a superb parody of a young, naive man who got it wrong then found zero Brexit benefits.

But it’s being tweeted by Sunak – so I’m confused. https://t.co/BRTlZEyMf5

Love Rishi Sunak's new promo video. Especially the bit where the teetotal (and honestly good for him) former Chancellor raises a good old British pint for the gullible…. sorry… for the British people .. just like any other pint loving brit pic.twitter.com/Mp3zDDyNvQ
