HOW not to answer a question.
Several years ago I listened to a stand-up comedian telling of the way politicians dodged answering questions when being interviewed by the media.
It goes something like this...
Interviewer: “Can I ask you ... blah, blah?”
Politician: “I am glad you asked me that question. But, before I answer it, may I just say... blah, blah, blah?”
Needless to say, the question is never answered.
Could it be that our Prime Minister is tarred with the same brush?
