Great, Stewart. Stewart, hello. 'Can I speak to Peter, please?'
I wish your friend had an app
that would deliver Stewart a dead cat in a box. Stewart.
Congratulations, Peter.
Silicon Playgrounds has now been dubbed Mannion's Workhouse Web.
Well, it's not my fault if they misinterpreted something
that I said I never understood.
Oh for fuck's... I literally can't believe this man.
Is he trying to get sacked?
What he's done is close to resting his cock on his boss's wife's shoulder.
So, who's going to be Santa Claus, eh? What?
Who's getting the sack? Oh, for fu...!
I need to get back to DoSAC. I was looking forward to my G&T.
Why don't you stay here and creep out the barmaid?
Use your unplucked flower line.
Peter Mannion just got the name wrong, that's...
Well, names are very difficult.
Sometimes people spell Terri with a Y not an I but I don't complain.

Coverley comms.
Heads up, OK, just keep moving. Minister, can we get a comment
on the secretary's speech this morning?
Is it true you're planning for young children to work
designing apps for free?
I understand the...the Secretary of State made...made a speech.
Obviously I...I haven't seen that speech.

Let me be very clear the digital dividend element of this scheme
is optional. If they prefer pupils can be paid in cash.
So this isn't about turning schools into workhouses then?
Erm, no. Maybe Peter did come across as more of a...
fibre-optic Fagin than he might have intended. Thank you.
