Question Time and This Week

So Ella Whelan casting doubt on the authenticity of some of the photographs of children in detention centres in the US - you would have thought Living Marxism types would know better than to speculate on photographs of people behind fences.

lol

They really are scum.

Has the BBC ever given any kind of reason for having a tiny, hard-right corporate front outfit with a smaller readership than Model Aircraft Today on speed dial?

They're all middle class right wing cunts?

It's good television, innit.

As it seems aside from the BBC and Talk Radio producers that have them on speed dial, no-one much else cares about them, who funds these wasters? There seems to be more transparency at the Taxpayers Alliance ffs!

I wonder what proportion is that and what proportion is Good Liberals imagining the public is vastly more right wing than them and giving the audience what they think they want.

Even so, when you have actual Tory politicians and Brexit campaigners on the show, idk what the imagined audience for contrarian fash/ libertarians would be.

(xp) You're wrong there, they're on Sky all the time too, Brendan O'Neill virtually lives at Sky News studios.

I never watch it tbh, thank fuck!

(xxp) Pretty sure all they're interested in is entertainment.

Newsnight continuing to do the noble and important work of sorting out the good Free Tommy people from the bad elements:

"This isn't us, this isn't the Free Tommy movement... I'd say this is far-right" - this woman explains that the majority of Tommy Robinson supporters were protesting peacefully #newsnight pic.twitter.com/SnLwgIJb4v

Also good to give Gerald Batten plenty of time to explain why Robinson isn’t similar to Nelson Mandela, he is actually better, under robust questioning like ‘haven’t you misjudged this?’.

the BBC want socialism for their corporation, neo-fascism for their license payers. At least they are consistent on this line!

Seem like good questions imo.

'we all break laws on a day to day basis'

send the rozzers round to this audience member's house asap

The guy who asked the question was a policeman!

... so, yes, a reactionary right wing twat, PC Gammon in fact.

PC Bacon

PC Gonemad

wtf

I didn't see the show last night, but surely the format means these questions get comprehensively twatted by most of the panel?

Damn I should start watching Question Time again pic.twitter.com/R58KJAKJ2J

"It was a one-off"

This is genuinely the most revolting thing I’ve seen on the bbc for a while. Alibhai Brown raises Stanley Johnson assaulting his wife (he broke her nose) & Fiona Bruce cites his friends saying it was a ‘one off’.
