Dining across the divide: The only thing we agreed on was our mutual dislike of Boris Johnson'
Briefly

"The big beef Maria The 7 October was horrific. In no way do I support Hamas. Israel had the right to defend itself, but what they have done is way over the top. I'm very against Netanyahu. He's not thinking about the hostages, or the Israeli people, he's just desperate for votes from the right of his party. He is obliterating Gaza: 42,000 killed and 80% of buildings destroyed."
"Paul I was nervous and thought: What have I let myself in for? I was a bit terrified you'd send me a Portuguese or Brazilian immigrant who wouldn't understand my humour, but Maria is Irish so we had a bit of craic."
"Maria is Irish, so she has an automatic kind of sympathy for the underdog. I look at Israel and see people who have been treated badly returning to their homelands."
"Paul does read the Guardian, is vegetarian, and has been to Pakistan, Ethiopia and North Korea. People think that because I'm on the right, I must do two weeks in Benidorm."
