Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn went paw to paw last night in ITV’s election debate. It was an assured performance from Boris, his attack lines as slick and well-rehearsed as a cruise liner cabaret act. Corbyn (pictured during the debate) came across as tetchy and evasive in the face-off with the Prime MinisterHunky Brett’s instructions were pretty clear: Keep badgering Corbyn on Brexit. ‘Thank you Mr Johnson!’ became the buzzphrase of the evening as time and again she admonished Boris as he overshot his answers. In the second half of the debate, Mr Corbyn probably had the better exchanges on the NHS, although there were further cackles about his plans for a four-day week.
