Watch: Philip May falls foul of the Maybot

Picture the scene: it’s Friday night at Chequers and the Prime Minister and her husband are letting their hair down. While relaxing by watching a quiz show and drinking a cup of tea, Philip May’s flower knowledge falls short – and the Maybot is not impressed:

Philip May: They are very nice chrysanthemums.

Theresa May: They’re not chrysanthemums.

Philip: Dahlias! Why do I keep getting this wrong?

Theresa: You keep calling dahlias, chrysanthemums

Perhaps it’s best if Philip sticks to his ‘boy jobs’….
