Oh, what a moment that was! If you missed it, you’ll want to catch the replay — because Kenny just delivered one of the most satisfying political takedowns we’ve seen in a long while.
It happened during a routine question session, but what unfolded was anything but ordinary. Kenny calmly asked a very specific question about whether the government planned to raise income tax, national insurance, or VAT. On the surface, it seemed like a standard inquiry — but it was actually a carefully set trap.
The minister’s response? A minute-long ramble, going round in circles, never giving a clear yes or no. You could see the familiar tactic: stall, distract, and hope the question fades away. But Kenny wasn’t having it.
With perfect timing, she hit back. “That’s interesting,” she said, “because back in July, I asked you the exact same question, word for word. Can you confirm that you will not be raising income tax, VAT, or national insurance? And your answer then… was just one word: yes.”
Boom. That was the moment the room shifted. The minister, clearly caught off guard, looked visibly uncomfortable as he sat back down. His expression said it all — he’d been caught bang to rights.
It was political theatre at its best — calm, calculated, and devastatingly effective. You could almost hear the collective gasp from the benches. Kenny’s composure, her precision, and her ability to expose a contradiction with such simplicity — it was pure mastery.
And here’s the thing: even people who don’t usually praise her side of politics had to admit it. It was sharp. It was fair. And it showed exactly why preparation and memory matter in Parliament.
As one viewer put it online: “That wasn’t just a question. That was poetry.”
Whatever happens next, one thing’s for sure — Kenny’s moment will be replayed and remembered for a long time.
November 26th just got a lot more interesting.
