Foot in Mouth award 2022

Gianni Infantino

"Today I have very strong feelings. Today, I feel Qatari. Today, I feel Arab. Today, I feel African. Today, I feel gay. Today, I feel disabled. Today, I feel a migrant worker. I feel all this because what I have been seeing and what I have been told, since I don't read, otherwise I will be depressed."

Runners-up

Joe Biden

"Let me start off with two words: Made in America."

“My younger sister used to be three years younger than me. Now she’s twenty-three years younger. There is not a single solitary Biden man that is younger than any Biden woman.”

Rishi Sunak

Mr Sunak was asked by Spectator TV about whether he would look to spend more time in Scotland if he were the UK’s leader.

“I think people can already see I take that (Scotland) seriously. I was the Chancellor who set up an economic campus for the government and for the treasury of Darlington.”

Kanye West, comparing himself to George Floyd:

“God has shown me, by what Adidas is doing, and by what the media is doing… I know how it feels to have a knee on my neck now.”

Donald Trump (on Republican mid-term elections)

“Well, I think if they win, I should get all the credit, and if they lose, I should not be blamed at all.”
