Question Time tonight

[Pickman's model]

Cameron has a very puffy face again...looks like when I have to go on the Pred (steroids).

There were pork scratchings with the hospitality

 

[DotCommunist]

Out of curiosity have you ever been to Brighton's festival of shopping?

never been to brighton. Its a long journey from here

 

[Duncan2]

Apart from the initial gaffe I thought Dimbleby did at least as much as anyone else to hold Cameron to account and definitely caused some Prime Ministerial embarrassment.It won't alter the result on Thursday but Cameron was crap,reduced to mentioning how close his office was to that once occupied by Churchill ffs.

 

[stavros]

it's roundabout heaven

A poor man's Basingstoke.

It was a bit rich of Gove to chastise the Grauniad for using his father for political points, when he's been doing much the same thing.

 

[stavros]

I watched Le Débat on France24 earlier, a not dissimilar discussion show to QT, albeit without an audience. It featured a London-based French hack and a financier who both backed leave, and Dominic Grieve and Denis Macshane who backed remain. I've watched these before, mainly about French domestic issues, and they've been fairly mild-mannered affairs, but this descended into a quasi-QT slanging match, talking over one another.

David Dimbleby presents Question Time from Preston.

On the panel are:

Conservative education minister Sam Gyimah MP,
Labour's shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry MP,
Ukip's Douglas Carswell MP,
comedian Russell Kane
the Times columnist Melanie Phillips

 

[mk12]

I imagine Kane will be an insufferable liberal remainer.

 

[weltweit]

I imagine Kane will be an insufferable liberal remainer.

I am wondering wtf he is doing there, his act is pretty non political.

 

[danny la rouge]

I watched the Sunday special. First time in years. But this one looks eminently missable.

 

[Supine]

Ukip - better get some soft furnishings I can throw at the screen

 

[weltweit]

Plenty for them to expound about this week though.

 

[ShiftyBagLady]

He's filler. Much like his act.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Plenty for them to expound about this week though.

We never did get an answer to this question:

Looking forward to PMQ. Though Corbyn is as likely to ignore what's going on and ask the Cameron about Anne from Solihull's water bill

The people demand answers!

 

[FridgeMagnet]

Douglas Carswell and Melanie Phillips?

mm

you know I think I might pass

 

[Lord Camomile]

After the election, watching Question Time was going to be one of my ways of "getting more engaged", but fuck me most of the time I just can't stomach it

I'll just stick to reading the abuse afterwards.

 

[Sirena]

I think Mad Mel will try to go for Corbyn as hard as she can.

With luck, she'll overstretch herself.

With luck the evil old bag will drop down dead, but that may be going too far.......




But yes, as a staunch supporter of Israel she absolutely will. the whole thing will be 'he's a nice man, but he's got to go, oh and he hates the jews"

22:50 - 23:50 Am I the only one that finds Question Time is just too late in the day?
I am usually asleep before it starts!

Don't worry, it's just as easy to ignore on the iPlayer

Carswell is good cop UKIP.

 

[Supine]

Carswell is good cop UKIP.

It'd be bricks for the bad cops

 

[CNT36]

Dimbleby seems to have given up any pretence of being impartial.

 

[Duncan2]

I quite like Emily Thornberry she obviously does care about the Labour Party quite a bit.

 

[treelover]

I imagine Kane will be an insufferable liberal remainer.

Well, not exactly, he told it like it is in his part of Essex, the views of his W/C extended family, etc.

 

[stavros]

I love the irony of Melanie Phillips (Daily Mail 2001-13) lambasting those in the press peddling nasty messages.

 

[belboid]

Christ, what a line up. Galloway, Hislop and some non entities. Hopefully those two will kill each other. Once GG has done his Iraq rant

 

[not-bono-ever]

Hislop seems to be utterly fucking seething

 

[ItWillNeverWork]

Well that was cringey.

 

[Ted Striker]

Poor Lord Falconer

 

[red devil]

Hislop seems to be utterly fucking seething

well conservative anarchits allways are!
