Jesus, I'm watching This Week's replacement, Brexitcast. They are boasting, yes boasting, about how 'in depth' they are, whilst simultaneously being shallow, shallow, shallow. Utter shite. First five minutes anyway.

Gina Miller is a boss. Wish she’d join Labour, can see her becoming leader and potential PM. She speak well and is razor sharp.

Meanwhile the Boris ass dweller James Cleverley is also spouting his contradictory and hypocritical rubbish.

Yeah I like Gina Miller a lot. Doubt she has any interest in going into politics though

The only hope is that he dies of suffocation from having his head jammed so far up Johnson's arse.

Mark Reckless is a scientific experiment to create the most boring person in the universe.

Question Time has been awful for years now. I stopped watching it ages ago.
No matter your political persuasion the only thing tuning in does is infuriate you.
Shame, because it should actually be a good show but it is so stupid. The questions that get asked are so stereotypical and literally caricature every issue and every audience member, couple that with the standard caricature answers from the same MP's and the blood pressure rises to volcanic levels.

Indeed they used to moderate the discussion towards reasonable viewpoints now they just let extreme viewpoints be expressed in the interests of "balance".

Unfortunately the BBC have made a complete balls-up of their Brexit coverage and it has leaked into QT and other formats. Their editorial slant has not been nearly as impartial as they would like us all to believe. Their reputation has been tarnished as a result.

Bonnie Greer was brilliant.
Hmm disagree. Declaring that the whole of the UK is tough to live in if you're foreign because her friend can't speak Polish on the tube anymore was bizarre. Also getting passive aggressive over the UK-Ireland-America relations was weird.

She did seem to disappear up her own arsehole, yeah. And they "in American we dye the water green on St Patricks, so we get the Irish ok". :lol:

To be fair the USA have already said that if the UK want to get a great trade deal they need to respect the GFA. It is actually a big deal over there.

Did anyone see question time last night? Very fiery show. Extinction rebellion were on.
I genuinely can’t watch it anymore.

I expect they picked the waftiest people possible who struggled to articulate any points while Fiona was cutting in with snide jibes and giving the floor to whatever angry old white man wanted to vent the longest.

:lol:

Theo Pathetis from Dragons Den was on calling the guy from ER a "numpty" and arguing with audience members. They also had Grant Shaps and Lisa Nandy (why is she always on the TV by the way?). Oh and some outspoken writer. It was comical.

Should be really enjoyable watching Hancock and Daubney ganging up on Dodds and Whitford while Bruce gets her sly digs in and cuts them off with absolute contempt while letting Hancock and Daubney spew absolute garbage to their hearts content.
