Question Time tonight

[story]

Graham Stuart talking Gibberish now.

God this audience is very dead. Maybe stunned by the clown show

I know it’s Cheltenham but wow so staid and still

 

[story]

Well that was dull. A moment of calm in the middle of the maelstrom

Seem like they only go to middle class locations now and, if I understood bruce correctly, wherever they go they apparently attempt to recreate the 2019 GE %s in the audience make up. FFS

Even so I would expect more fire and ire in the current circumstances.

I did enjoy a little fantasy about how it would have played out in a Northern w/c place

 

[Ax^]

if we don't an election

who ever ends up the pm if its a tory and the country accepts years of austerity

because tory members cannot be trusted to select a pm is a fucking loon

but Corbyn



Toody tory to finish the show

Maybe, I dunno; I can't even imagine what would motivate anyone to participate in that programme, let alone understand how they'd react in front of the cameras.

 

[story]

Well yeah, there is that…

 

[hash tag]

Depressed and full of despair, at what's happened and what might happen next.

I agree; that's far too close to proportional representation, which is most un-British.

 

[story]

Depressed and full of despair, at what's happened and what might happen next.

Very likely.
We’re all at the shitty end of the stick right now and that’s exhausting and eviscerating.

But we need some fire in the belly otherwise we’ll just continue to put up with it all, as we seem to be so good at doing.

I don't normally watch it because it's a pile of shite but I saw the thread trending earlier and thought I'd look in given today's events. It was, and still is, a pile of shite.

It is annoying. If i wanted to see people lying for entertainment I’d go to the crown courts.

As farcical a broadcast as one could wish for under the banner of "current affairs".​

 

[philosophical]

Guess who was the last panellist brought into the conversation?

 

[stavros]

One audience member knowingly mentioned an omnishambles to Iannucci; he'd have been better off citing Tucker's Law.

Why was Hartley-Brewer not totally admonished, when she started her doubtful climate change bullshit? This excellent documentary catalogues Exxon et al using exactly the same sceptic tactics over many decades to cast doubt in the public eye. I thought the BBC had learned their lesson with Nigel Lawson's previous appearances.

 

[Kevbad the Bad]

Hartley Brewer should never be allowed to speak ever again.

"robust debate" "both sides"

Anyone watch Thursday's edition? The Torygraph hack was dreadful, forgiving the royal lackie for being racist, on account of her age.

She's served her maj for 6 decades. How dare we call her racist. The racist.

 

[stavros]

Isabel Oakeshott for the fourteenth time tonight. Eventually we may find out where her talents lie.

 

[philosophical]

Isn’t she the ‘significant other’ with Richard Tice?

 

[brogdale]

Isn’t she the ‘significant other’ with Richard Tice?

Vile as she is; what does that add to the mix?

 

[hash tag]

Vile as she is; what does that add to the mix?

Vile or maybe bile

 

[philosophical]

Vile as she is; what does that add to the mix?

Her likely political leaning.

 

[stavros]

Mogg AND Hitchens?! Fuck me...

 

[stavros]

I wish Ash Sarkar had gone in all guns blazing for that Royal question, and advocated getting rid of all of them. She should have also countered the idea from Tim Stanley that "the Queen never annoyed anyone". Utter bollocks - she utterly fucked up normal life for loads of us last year, when she selfishly insisted on a massive song and dance for her dying.

A NHS special tonight, with:

• Will Quince (junior health minister - presumably they asked Barclay but he was doing his hair)
• Wes Streeting (shadow health secretary)
• Clare Gerada (GP leader)
• Victor Adebowale (Turning Point (the social care organisation, not the American far right group)
• James Bartholomew (a hack who apparently writes for the FT, the Mail, the Telegraph and the Spectator)
