Question Time tonight

[brogdale]

She was crap, wasn't she? Even by their standards.

An unusual game plan for a tory; just rock up and pretend to be an 'ordinary' member of the public who is somewhat bemused by being thrust into a discussion about politics and current affairs about which they have no knowledge whatsoever.

 

[hash tag]

She was crap, wasn't she? Even by their standards.

She wasn't really a Tory and was at a loss for words most of the time. She really looked like she was struggling to defend them.

 

[stavros]

I'm not sure I remember the whole audience, the rest of the panel and Bruce/Dimbleby being so unanimously against the bollocks being spoken by a minister.

Pity it was about something pretty trivial in the grand scheme of things. Not to mention a minister nobody had heard of.

Or will ever hear of again.

 

[stavros]

True, although every minister, senior or otherwise, parrots the party line on an issue, until Number Ten U-turns on it.

 

[hash tag]

She looked to be struggling to toe the party line.

 

[Calamity1971]

Rachael Mcklean, I'll dodge the question and patronise you all into the bargain. Train wanker spouting shite. Pair of Tory cunts.

 

[8ball]

I don’t know where this is set, but just put it on and from audience reactions I’m guessing Torycuntville.

 

[Shechemite]

Hendon

 

[Calamity1971]

I thought the entrepreneur would be a raging Tory. So far he's been excellent. The audience at the beginning 8ball were quite raging about Johnson etc. I started staring at the wall when someone in the audience claimed she pays her taxes.

Tory persons opening words
" I can't defend the indefensible"

Odd choice of career, then?

He was quite good, although one might argue he was aiming at an open goal.

Once again two fully paid-up Tories on the panel.

 

[Calamity1971]

Well, that was quite enjoyable. Tory rocking in his chair and getting cotton mouth. You're all clowns was a highlight. A round of applause to angry Andy in the audience.

 

[hash tag]

Whitty & Johnson, don't listen to the media, listen to their words, the message is the same
Queue lots of laughter.

 

[stavros]

That Torygraph hack was horrendously laissez-faire with regards public health.

 

[BristolEcho]

I watched it for the first time in years before match of the day was on. Put it on mute as eventually someone annoys me. Thought the crowd were decent especially the bloke and also thought Nandy came across well. I don't actually know anything about her is she good? The Tory was hillariously bad.

Doubt I'll tune in again as I get to angry and just want to shout at the TV.

 

[stavros]

You almost (almost) feel sorry for Simon Hart, the government rep on tonight. Hopefully Jess Phillips tears him several new ones.

Why they've invited disgraced journo Isabel Oakeshott on again I have no idea.

 

[Calamity1971]

Phillips AND oakshott. Double joy!

 

[philosophical]

Oakshott will accuse Phillips of posturing and self aggrandisement and smirk that she has won the argument.
She can do one, millions of us endured some appaling stuff during lockdown whilst they (her ilk) were partying.
I hope Phillips keeps reminding her of that

Double trouble

No one else was available

I felt just that way watching the recent notts forest arsenal match

 

[stavros]

"We need to wait for Sue Gray to publish her enquiries into the Pope's theological thoughts and bears' toiletry habits."

 

[stavros]

Is it written in the contract of any BBC guest that if the royal family is mentioned everyone has to (metaphorically) ejaculate all over the Queen? Beyond anything else it's the subject they don't provide objective balance on, which in turn leads to the belief that everyone loves her.

If it is another nail in Johnson's coffin or that of the tories, yes.

Maybe, but they were also gushing over her handling of the Andrew issue. No one posited that everyone is at least partly a product of those who bring them up.

 

[8ball]

“Scottish writer clever guy” just described Jacob Rees-Mogg as a “steampunk C3PO”.
