<b>By Our Political Staff

Suffolk was honoured last night when Shadow Foreign Secretary Emily 'Thorny' Thornberry chaired a pub quiz just hours after doing several grueling television interviews.</b>

Ms Thornberry, who famously dissed a man for having a St George Cross flag and a white van during the General Election campaign, was the star guest at the quiz in a Ipswich pub.


<br>
The quiz was won by a Mr Dermot Murnaghan, from the Isle of Skye, but let's see how you, the Suffolk Gazette readers, would have scored.

1. Is the leader of the Labour Party:
a) Keith Vaz
b) Jeremy Vine
c) Margaret Thatcher
d) Gordon Brown
e) It's not fair to ask a girl that question.

2. Is Donald Trump:
a) A barber
b) A golfer
c) A comedian
d) A  politician.
e) It's nor fair to ask a girl that question.

3. Was the National Health Service invented by:
a) Andy Anadin
b) I. Bruprofen
c) Nye Bevan
d) Andre Previn
e) It's not fair to ask a girl that question.

4. what colour is a working man's white van?
a) Teal
b) White
c) Alizarin Crimson
d) Taupe
e) It's not fair to ask a girl that question.

5. Is a big end
a) A penis
b) The larger end of the connecting rod encircling a crankpin.
c) A bit in a white van.
d) A car-crash interview about foreign affairs on Sky TV
e) It's not fair to ask a girl that question.

6. Is Emily Thornberry
a) A Butterick dress pattern model?
b) The Shadow Foreign Secretary
c) The French Foreign Secretary
d) A character from Bagpuss
e) It's not fair to ask a girl that question.

Afterwards, a victorious Mr Murnaghan said: "I knew answering 'e' to all the questions would win me the quiz. If a woman is merely the Shadow Foreign Secretary, you can't expect the poor darling to know anything other than the rehearsed answers. I guessed Emily, being the chair girl of the pub quiz, would make the winning answers inscrutable. I'm proud to have fathomed the answers."

Earlier in the day, Ms Thornberry had accused Sky News anchorman Dermot Murnaghan of sexism for asking her who the French Foreign Secretary was - or even the South Korean President. She claimed he was 'pub-quizzing' her, and it was all jolly unfair.
