I'm not sure what to make of Ned's state of mind, going from this interview with MiniTrue. Has he been hypnotised? Is he an android?
When I speak publicly I try to listen out in case I'm peppering my speech with verbal ticks, such as; essentially, basically and such like. Ned is all verbal tick. Labourites out there; you may wish to consider throwing a sack over his head and dragging him out the back door. What you do with him next, I'll leave in your hands, comrades.
Hat tip: TPS
UPDATE: Read the interviewer's take on Ned's android moment
It gets worse.
ReplyDeleteHe used the same language in a tweet on Twitter. You'd have thought this was a satirical account but no, it's his official Twitter account.

There's re-enforicing your point through similar language and then there's jettisoning all other vocabulary until you sound like a parrot.
Apologies, I'll make that a URL link.

Funny. What I'd like to see is someone change the questions to completely different subjects, with the same answers.
ReplyDeleteI reckon this is gonna haunt Ned.
