Misanthropy makes him "worry" about over-population but narcicsim and supremacism prevent him from considering your suggestion> He needs rid of those people. He needs them cleansed.

QT WOKE AF last night. Tory cancer exposed and pummeled to death.

If Corbyn and Labour are so unelectable, why does the BBC feel the need to engage in such behaviour?

Hardly getting over it.
He's a Scots Tory. He's hardly likely to drink Bourbon, or kill himself with a Colt. He'd go for a bottle of Ardbeg and a Webley.

Speaking as 3/4 Scottish Geordie, I must say that Scots Tories are, incredible as it may seem, even worse than your usual loathsome Tory.

It is tempting to think that they are angling for a reprieve from the dismantling/privatisation of the Beeb. The unfortunate truth seems to be that many of the Tories at the top of the Beeb have an invested interest in seeing it go that very way.

I'm not sure, given the evidence of the last 10 years or so - remember that the Beeb picked up and ran with the "Brown crashes economy" lie - that they give a fuck about what happens to Auntie Beeb, just about what happens to themselves.
It's not vested at all, IMO. As with most nationalised orgs, the senior management will benefit massively from privatisation, through "management buy-outs" and/or sinecures for facilitating buy-ins by hedge funds etc

The list of big-wigs at the BBC is like the bookings in Manchester 5 star hotels during the first week of next October.

Pretty much exactly the same thing happened when Radio 4's "Question Time" came to Truro in the run up to last month's local government elections.
Fiona Ferguson, previously the head of the Tory group on Cornwall County Council, was allowed to ask a loaded question about the European City of Culture bid, designed to reinforce the idea that the Council had loads of money for social care etc but chose to spend it on junkets and vanity projects instead.

How does that relate to a BBC basis in favour of UKIP? Or show an over-representation of UKIP on QT?

I don't think anyone mentioned ukip. I was asking about tory councillors being infiltrated into the audience by the bbc and being given generous air-time masquerading as the public.
It was never about ukip. ukip are just tories.

I did complain but got some mealy mouthed guff about it being normal to have elected officials in the audience and any suggestions of there being a plant, something I didn't even mention in my complaint, are wrong.
Since Corbyn's been leader I see now more than ever that the propaganda model by Herman and Chomsky is largely spot on.

Yeah...complaints seem to be a waste of time...
Probably a good time to re-post this then
What d'ya think redsquirrel ? (not trolling you, just trying to inform you)

What do I think about what?
I've never argued that QT is not biased, in fact I specifically pointed out one if it's biases. If you actually read people's posts you'd know that.

Are you answering me now or answering me two weeks ago? Just checking.
What do you think about the London Calling video?
I quite enjoyed it when two audience members took over the debate. A refreshing change.
Tomorrow night's line-up, from Norwich;
Conservative international development secretary Priti Patel;
Labour's shadow education secretary Angela Rayner;
Lib Dem and former business secretary Vince Cable;
Green Party co-leader Jonathan Bartley;
former Daily Telegraph editor and official Margaret Thatcher biographer Charles Moore

One of those audience members was an elected conservative party councillor. Dimblebum would've known that.
