British politician reacts after World Cup failure

July 1, 2022 at 3:04 am

It’s hardly surprising that British politician Nadine Dorries ate an ostrich anus, camel toe, and lamb’s testicles from an Australian bush during a reality TV show.

Since the surprise election to British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s cabinet, Conservative MPs have regularly disproved that assumption.

But the secretary of state for digital, culture, media and sports beat himself on Thursday.

Dan Biggar talks about the ‘fearless’ element of the Welsh team.

Dan Biggar talks about the ‘fearless’ element of the Welsh team.

At an event to promote this year’s Rugby League World Cup, she said: My old memory is the drop goal in 2003.

“I will keep you a secret. I think we were drinking Bloody Mary at the time. It was 11 in the morning and wow, what a great moment.”

That ‘2003 drop goal’ of course was also scored in Sydney by England’s Jonny Wilkinson, who played against Australia to win the Rugby Union’s World Cup.

It is not so easy to confuse rugby league and rugby union. Unless you are a sports minister.

The league has 13 players and 15 unions. There are no phases of play in the league beyond line-outs, proper scrums, or six tackles.

And most aptly for governments trying to do a favor to northern voters, the English League is traditionally played by hard-working men from northern mining towns, while Union is an area of ​​ex-public school boys moving from cities to lavish jobs.

The fact that Dorries was speaking at the heart of the league in the Lancashire town of St Helen’s made matters even worse.

Upon learning of her mistake, Dorries tweeted:

“Both the League and Union have a rich heritage in England. Obviously I’ve watched a lot less rugby leagues in my life, but I’m looking forward to seeing England (and all my home countries) at the RL World Cup this fall.”

The tournament runs from October 15th to November 19th.
