Duncan’s rations: now with added video

Further to my post earlier, Sky have now produced an embeddable copy of Don’t Panic’s Alan Duncan video. The offending remarks come around 04:30 in:

I know I said before that I’m inclined to believe Duncan’s excuse – that the comments were made in jest – but the more I watch the clip, the less convinced I am. Intentional hyperbole – perhaps. A joke – hmm. Either way, it’s a stark error of judgement on the shadow leader’s part.
