The 2017 General Election campaign

'We've made a clear decision to protect the poorest in our society'

My god, the bare-faced lies.

I'm so glad I've got you guys here passing comment as a) I don't have a telly and b) I usually find these things cringeworthy and shouty by turns.

Meanwhile on Twitter:

It's on five live to. FWIW

My god, the bare-faced lies.

Laughter from the audience, the second time she's been drowned out by derision.

Fallon got a punch home on the dement tax. Good on him. And Manchester health services. Fuck the Tories.

 

[phillm]

Ade Edmonson on now nicking money from the Scots.

Corbyn has just let slip he wants more generous family reunion policies, that won't be too popular, though it will of course for the people affected.

Do you oppose more generous family reunion policies?

 

[xenon]

This will be interesting. How much mud can rud Throw without looking like an arsehole.

 

[Buckaroo]

Nuttall is getting scrapped, get rid of immigrants and save the 'monolithic' NHS, ya cunt.

 

[wiskey]

aarrgghh stop them all talking at once!!

 

[treelover]

Amber Rudd, "My manifesto"

mmm

 

[xenon]

Corbin, I agree with Angus.

 

[phillm]

Corbyn wants more coppers - that'll be popular with some folks here !

 

[Buckaroo]

aarrgghh stop them all talking at once!!

Shoot them all at once!

 

[gosub]

Corbyn absolutely right to be there and May absolutely wrong not to be from a tactical point of view.

I thought the thinking was : the only real winners of the big set pieces are the 3rd parties, who get given a bigger voice than their position would normally allow for {i agree with Nick}

 

[Nine Bob Note]

Why isn't John Bercow moderating?

 

[SpookyFrank]

Why isn't John Bercow moderating?

They've let some intern do it instead.

that was the thinking - though it's definately adding weight to the Corbyn 'bandwagon' if there is such a thing.

aarrgghh stop them all talking at once!!

Its made me think (well, reinforced) how utterly bizarre their world must be... Part Club, part debating society and part er... attempting to a country. The whole Westminster bubble is just truly odd.

Corbyn playing a blinder, one has to wonder what the polls would show, without all the chicken coups, sniping, sitting on hands by the Blairites, etc.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Waffle from Corbyn. Not good.

 

[phillm]

Which of you to believe...

 

[Maharani]

Corbyn has definitely got the majority of the audience behind him...

 

[xenon]

Actually good bit of parrying

 

[phillm]

Corbyn definate 'winner' atm.

 

[Buckaroo]

Rudd's boss is a fucking terrorist enabler. She should shut the fuck up on this one.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

[Pickman's model]

So treelover on the ball and littlebabyjesus talking tosh?
