TalkRADIO’s audience were treated to a classic politician/interviewer bust-up last night as Dan Wootton took Chris Bryant on over Wales’ impending two-week “fire breaker” lockdown, which saw the Rhondda MP kicked off the interview after calling Wootton a “dangerous” “nutcase”. It wasn’t long before the feud resumed on Twitter…

You believe we should surrender to the virus which means additional unnecessary deaths plus the overwhelming of our NHS. I talk to my local physicians all the time. You’re just a loudmouth Trump-lite.

Despite SAGE’s own top scientists espousing herd immunity just a few months ago, Bryant tried mocking Dan, repeatedly saying “so you subscribe to herd immunity?!” While it’s fair to point out issues with the so-called Barrington Declaration as Matt Hancock did last week, Bryant avoided that ever tiresome duty of an MP to debate the points civilly, merely resorting to abusing Wootton:

“You’re a nutcase, a complete and utter nutcase and you’re dangerous as well”

Bryant is getting increasingly short-tempered, and it is not as if he had a long fuse to begin with…
