“When you let people be who they are, you give them space to become even more.”Cheryl Richardson

There’s something powerful about feeling safe, feeling valued, feeling believed in.

That’s when the energy settles.
That’s when the good stuff happens.
That’s when we shine.

“You know what’s underrated? Letting people be. Letting them mispronounce a word, talk too much about a show they love, or get excited about something you don’t understand. You don’t have to get it, just be kind. Everyone’s got something that lights them up. Let them shine, even if it’s not your thing.”

It didn’t work. He looked like a well meaning parish councillor trying to get heard. I think we can agree that PMQs isn’t the best debate format, but his attempts to make it an open public forum were quickly batted away with ease. It did not work and was quite embarrassing.

I understand what he was trying to do, but it didn’t work. Of course the Pm dodges those questions, that’s what PMQs is about, the leader of the opposition should be challenging them on the major issues, individual constituents questions got lost in the process which is where it didn’t work.
