Thread: Anyone watch the Question Time debate between Corbyn and the Welsh chap (not Ramsey)?

    Anyone watch the Question Time debate between Corbyn and the Welsh chap (not Ramsey)?

    A quick read of the Tele suggests that the beardy, weirdy one got savaged.

    Not the most objective of publications when it comes Corbyn, I suppose.

    Did he?

    The Guardian went with the line that Corbyn probably shaded it, but the real loser was the Labour party, as the slow, inexorable car crash of it tearing itself to pieces continued on prime time tv.

    The woman in the audience, with the glasses who was virtually in tears at the state of the party summed it up.
    It was like a pantomime with the booing.

    Didn't see it but given that Smith is a certifiable cretin I would be surprised if even Corbyn can't outwit him. Genuinely haven't seen him say one thing that didn't make me wonder whether is able to dress himself in the morning or is he has carers to do it

    Meh. Two eunuchs fighting over a dead woman.

    More to the point, when did it become the BBC's role to be the stage for the Labour party's internal squabbles?

    I was intrigued by that as well. I mean, we know that the BBC is the socialists' mouthpiece and all, but surely they didn't expect such a spectacle to help the comrades, did they? It strikes me as a spectacular own goal.

    I'm looking forward to him popping over to Syria for a sit-down chat with ISIS. Because they've been crying out to negotiate, haven't they?

    I confess I'm finding it all rather amusing. Up until recently it had a sort of 'cover your eyes but peer, fascinated, through your fingers' quality about it. Now it's just fúcking hysterical.

    He actually said that didn't he - Jesus wept.

    I got massively sanctimonied by the right honourable Ian Harvey on Facebook for suggesting that Corbyn's greatest contribution to British politics was to ensure that Labour will never get elected as long as he is leader. Apparently he's a caring, wonderful man and all Tory politicians 'hate the poor'. This based on some website which has a rather dubious way of categorising the bills that parliament votes on and some logical leaps of epic proportions from Ian himself.

    Good ole Ian, I wonder if he'll make a reappearance as well
