Hopefully you didn't miss some of the background for the why.

Spoilers for ME2/3...

*Everyone is in skintight suits* but Miranda deliberately goes over the top with her posing to literally distract and wrongfoot people. The fact that she's aware that her DAD made her a sexually desirable clone...

Closer to the election Starmer should offer a referendum on rejoining the EU. It would wrongfoot Reform and the tories completely

Christie loves nothing better than mocking her own cliches, and this is a great example. The reveal of someone using a disguise to wrongfoot the investigation has been done to death at this point, and this time it's less of a punch-line and more of a set up - it's placed front and centre here.

Best numbers ever!? He's underwater!!!
He's trying to wrongfoot the Democrats (and me a dread Brit) and may succeed as they have to head off a possible grab on absolute power.
As has been said, WH extensions don't suggest he is going anywhere. Or Putin wants the chance to plant bugs in the bunker.

Agree to disagree on this one, then. It looked to wrongfoot the keeper to me. I just want us to use the centre forward a bit, rather than out wide and hoof.

Despite him being probably the single human most responsible for this timeline, I'm glad that he's someone with deft enough legal footwork to wrongfoot the legal abuses of this...administration.

(I want to say regime, and do sometimes, but other times it feels childish. Normalcy bias is strong!)

But eventually they come to expect the Manouevre, so you wrongfoot them with the Reverse Herring

zarah sultana needs it to be a real, leftist, socially liberal party that can propel some sort of national movement; the other MPs involved don't, because they already won with their own local machines. so she keeps trying to wrongfoot them by announcing things before she gets corbyn's agreement.

A really audacious low free kick from Salah is actually diverted in by Robertson, who manages to wrongfoot Oblak with his flick

Clever politics if you want to wrongfoot the populists of Reform and show them up to be the billionaire shills that they really are.

Agree. On the wealth tax idea, it's not so much for the money raised but for the moral and political angle - a solidarity tax - the super rich helping protect us from Putin. And because it would be popular, it would wrongfoot the cosplaying Reform types who are really just shills for billionaires.

Bingo. The only tactics they appreciate are anything that can *actually* intimidate, embarrass, or wrongfoot them, and calling out deliberate hypocrisy doesn't work.

"... It almost seems to take perverse pleasure in luring you in with the notion of some Irish GRUMPY OLD MEN redo with 'The IN BRUGES Boys' - only to slowly dim the tone and wrongfoot you into darkness!"

My ★★★★★ review of #TheBansheesOfInisherin

Another good choice the show makes: each 43min episode has two segments, so no story drags on too long. Ep 1A's mystery surrounding a plane crash investigator is unsettling, properly weird, and works to wrongfoot expectations throughout. Some striking imagery, great performances, nicely directed.

Me too! And it does sort of cleverly wrongfoot you in the middle, only to them completely trip over its own feet after that

I'm not convinced that is exactly the right framing. I'm fairly clued into Dem politics and prior to Harris going through her selection process I had no knowledge of Tim Walz. It's still very early and the wrong publicity can wrongfoot you quickly (see Newsom and Whitmer).

He is still trying to wrongfoot Ukraine, making maximum demands, which make it impossible for Ukraine to agree. He isjust playing poker with Trump, who is absolutely not a skilled player, is probably to busy playing golf to learn the rules

"I don't like the look of those fetlocks. They've no safety margin at all." So unnerving the way the three comedy episodes wrongfoot us regarding the horror of the final episode.

The views of some women. Also the views of some men. Also the views of the “Alliance Defending Freedom” (ADF), the outfit that helped overturn Roe v. Wade.

Bigotry is bigotry, even when it puts on feminist drag to try & wrongfoot its critics.

Isn't part of the issue that the defence of them has improved due to video analytics (i.e. mapping out where and how players like to place penalties), so penalty takers feel the need to be whacky to wrongfoot the keeper
