Question Time.

Red · Sep 18, 2015

A new season of qt started yesterday, so I thought we could have a thread dedicated to the issues discussed on it each week.

Stagat · Sep 18, 2015

Well what were they then?

Alty · Sep 18, 2015

It became a big discussion about Corbyn. John McDonnell attempted to row back on his IRA comments. It wasn't a great episode.

Liz Truss is fucking dreadful.

Hooped Wizard · Sep 20, 2015

McDonnell and Truss are pitiful.

I reckon somebody in the pcp told Truss to keep a lid on it, she was much less verbose than usual.

This week was a bit dull. It was amusing to see Kinnock feeling obliged to defend Corbyn though.
Charlotte Church was alright, but poor Leanne got rinsed.

Alty · Oct 3, 2015

Charlotte Church seems a nice enough lass but she was useless. Poor episode. Wood didn't seem to enjoy being reminded that UKIP got more votes in Wales than Plaid Cymru.

mowgli · Oct 3, 2015

I used to watch QT every week but i can't be bothered anymore,same old guests with the same old sounbites so i watch Newsnight instead and even that's gone downhill without Paxman.

Red · Oct 3, 2015

They went to town on her.

Hooped Wizard · Oct 3, 2015

I felt for Leanne Wood, she does seem a little out of her depth doesn't she?

Kinnock was good I thought. Crabb is exactly the sort of guy the Tories should be promoting, brought up in a council estate in Inverness, looking after his mother. He and Sajid Javid could be the key if they really want to appeal to the centre.

Thatcher lover was very annoying and Church is a little daft, apparently she has accused the audience of been right wing. Really? Possibly more centrist than usual but no way was it right wing.

Red · Oct 3, 2015

She didn't call them right wing during the show.

I know....

When did she call them right wing?

Tonight's show was quite good. I agreed with Melanie Phillips on the tax credits issue, but nothing else. She's right to say that scrapping tax credits is right but only if you're going to ensure that people are getting paid enough to cover the shortfall. Priti Patel got well and truly rinsed over the tax credits and was attacked on it from all quarters. It's a shame she's a Tory because she's also a milf.
The SNP bloke was pretty good and I kinda like Farron. I thought Nandy held her own.

The East Terrace · Oct 9, 2015

You can shag a Tory and not become one. :ohm:

I'm with Mowgli, it's the same old trusted MP's, the same journo's and the same celebs making up the numbers. Audience ask a question, MP's and journo's trot out party lines.

Hooped Wizard · Oct 10, 2015

The Times lady was the only one worth listening to.

Alty · Oct 10, 2015

Didn't watch it this week but I'd just like to point out that Priti Patel is an utter, utter moron. Genuinely might be the most stupid Member of Parliament (and it's not like there isn't competition).

Anyone see that Platell article about bake off, btw? Even by her standards it was absolutely deplorable.

Pliny Harris · Oct 10, 2015

God that last Question Time was grim. Most things that wind me up I can quickly forget forever, or just avoid altogether. QT however...

Feels like it's turning into Fox news this year. Very disingenuous statements going unchecked. Lack of defence for targets at times. Lardarse Ken Clarke claiming you can only be healthy if you eat meat last week proper riled me. Worse still getting up half six the next day having spent an hour recovering from QT before I can get to bed. e_e

mowgli · Oct 10, 2015

I missed Clarke's ridiculous comment about eating meat :lol:

I'd turned over before then. Don't understand his view as i don't eat meat through my choice of not wanting anything to do with the suffering of animals but hey each to their own in my opinion.I'm fit enough as i try and get as much exercise as i can,fitness is not just about what you eat,Clarke looks like he could do with some exercise himself but it would probably kill him. :lol:

Pliny Harris · Oct 10, 2015

I can laugh at my grandma's, daughter of a butcher, comments about the food I eat, but denial that vegetarians can even exist is erasure and frustratingly stupid. Sherpas, some of the fittest tribespeople on earth, never kill.

Melanie Phillips, as usual, was pushing her anti-Muslim propaganda and toeing the pro-IDF line.

Agreed, Ken oughta show a little respect

She was speaking for most of the working class on immigration. Controlled immigration is the only sustainable menthod you understand this? (I know I won't get an answer).

Platell is a disgrace. But then I'd never understand why anyone would choose to read such a disgusting rag.

Not sure who's on tonight but I'll be watching.

Alty · Oct 15, 2015

Not a bad panel. Simon Schama starts well - if we can't get reform of the EU, he's voting out.

GodsGift · Oct 15, 2015

I've heard a lot of incoherent shouting but not one decent argument has been put forward yet.

Got a bit feisty, didn't it?

I actually thought some of the stuff on the EU and the migrant crisis was quite good. A little bit heated but some genuinely convincing arguments.

The grammar school stuff and the bit at the end about the budget surplus vote were crap though.

Alty · Oct 22, 2015

Decent panel tonight. Zahawi for the Tories is a bit of a wet fart, but Alan Johnson, Nigel Farage and Germaine Greer are all good value. Michelle Dewberry predates my Apprentice-watching days so I have no idea what she's like.

Nigel Farage? Surely not!
