Question Time tonight

[stavros]

Will the audience not ostensibly be representative of the public at large?

 

[isvicthere?]

Oh fuck, it's the Wetherspoons numpty tonight! ​

 

[neonwilderness]

Laura Pidcock is doing quite well. Shame about the rest of them

 

[not a trot]

The passion of those two ladies brought tears to my eyes.fucking politicians should hang their heads in shame.

 

[MrSki]

The people of Tottenham were speaking sense.

 

[tedsplitter]

Actually enjoyed it for the first time in months. Pidcock did well on a panel stuffed with turds, and the audience was great.

 

[stavros]

Two Tories seemed unnecessary (on QT, I mean: there are far more than two Tories in total that seem unnecessary).

 

[stavros]

"[the EU] has a court that isn't accountable" said Tim Martin. My understanding is that the UK judiciary is also independent of electoral oversight, so was I misunderstanding what he was saying?

 

[Duncan2]

It was entertaining-Bruce allowed the Tottenham Popular Front to build up a head of steam in a way that her predecessor in the Chair never would have done.The format of the programme assumes a respect for the professional opinion of politicians that increasingly seems no longer to be there.No doubt this is because to a man/woman they (the politicians) have demonstrated that they know neither how to deliver Brexit on the one hand or,on the other,how to weasel their way out of delivering it.At this rate by 2020 bankers will be held in higher regard.

 

[stavros]

I'd have liked a panelist or an audience member to have mentioned drug legislative reform, in regard to the gangs debate. I get why the Tories are petrified of being seen to be "soft on drugs" - see the reaction to Gove snorting. However, it seems like a fairly open goal for Labour to propose decriminalisation and regulation of the cannabis market, as has happened in multiple other Western states, to various levels of success.

 

[stavros]

I was sort of warming the the Iceland bloke last night. Then he went and spoilt it during the Royal jizz-fest at the end.

 

[Duncan2]

Thank goodness for the last contribution from the audience juxtaposing the 2.4 million spaffed up the wall by the Royals in Frogmore House with the grim conditions facing the four million children currently in poverty.Not even sure that Flint really gets how ugly that is.

 

[stavros]

I'm not sure I've had my MP on QT before, wherever I've lived. She lived up to expectations.

 

[stavros]

For those those of you who haven't seen it, the producers seem to have unearthed another crackpot journalist, "telling it like it is", in the shape of Tom Harwood.

 

[Serge Forward]

Guido Fawkes cunt though so he's what you'd expect. They love that shit at the BBC.

 

[Proper Tidy]

That Tom Harwood is the posh gobshite that spent years hanging round the NUS trying to be the edgy rightwing libertarian counter. Durham or somewhere. Little cunt was always going to get walked into a political career. Probably be a minister in a decade or two

 

[stavros]

QT Extra Time said he's 22. What's the youngest they've ever had?

 

[Benjy1992]

Just catching up on QT.

That Tom Harwood really needs knocking down a peg or two.

Muppet.

 

[belboid]

I think there's a dude with a 'Fight for Socialism' and hammer and sickle on it on tonight. Sadly not on the panel.

 

[Proper Tidy]

First time I've watched QT in ages, last time it was still dimbleby. Thought it might be a bit interesting tonight after recent events. What a fucking idiot I am. Four tories on panel and somehow Layla Moran is still the worst one, absolute shit

I get him mixed up with Tom Slater, the little Spiked prick.

 

[neonwilderness]

Bring back Dimbleby

At least Emily Thornberry isn’t holding back

 

[fieryjack]

Bring back Dimbleby

At least Emily Thornberry isn’t holding back

except she was so desperate to get her three crappy "boris lied" quotes out that she totally bungled her timing and let Kwasi Kwarteng off the hook that he was floundering on. QT, as always: amateur night.

 

[Proper Tidy]

Turned it off now. But Thornbury looked weak, Labour not committing to a GE looks shit, and no idea why a labour frontbencher wouldn't just say when asked that Labour will take its own leave deal to a referendum. Allows Bruce to take the piss

 

[kabbes]

First time I’ve seen it with Bruce. God she’s shit.

 

[Proper Tidy]

First time I’ve seen it with Bruce. God she’s shit.

Same. Cocky shit too, says every meaningless thing like some smug gotcha

 

[Ted Striker]

First time I’ve seen it with Bruce. God she’s shit.

Tbf, she's not normally this bad, it's been a shocker for her.

 

[kabbes]

She thinks she’s part of the debate. Somebody is attempting to explain their answer, which has some complexity to it, and she interrupts them to bang on with some soundbite “aha”.

 

[stavros]

Why was Iain Dale so shocked when Thornberry called Johnson a liar? The two fields Dale supposedly knows about are journalism and politics, and Johnson has been sacked from jobs in both for lying.

 

[Poi E]

Who is he? He has a very beige name.
