It must be Thursday, Farage is on Question Time

does this guy have dirt on the DG of the BBC or what?

 

[vernon]

It must be a cult. Or at least that's what I think Norman Smith said.

I was called a big fat cult by a pupil this week in his quest to be re-admitted to the Pupil Referral Unit. His application was successful.

 

[vernon]

A future UKIP member?

Viler than that. During a showing of the liberation of Auschwitz in a school assembly , he stood up, gave a Hitler salute, shouted 'Zeig Heil' and said that not enough jews had been gassed.

 

[vernon]

Oh dear, there's not a huge amount of hope for him. I'm guessing the parents didn't vote liberal.

Father has just been released from prison having stabbed a taxi driver.

Farage loses his seat, gets on QT. The SNP get 56 seats and there's no sign of them.

Well done BBC!

 

[Archie_tect]

He's a guest celebrity now and he says what 14% of the UK population like to hear so he gets the debate fired up, because he isn't constrained by convention.

presumably a Jewish cabbie?

Well done BBC!

his lot did manage to grab comfortably over twice as many votes as the Jimmy Krankie party, so in terms of people wanting to hear with UKIP have to say there is, unfortunately, a far greater national demand than there is for the Krankies. So yes, a genuine well done to the BBC for treating political movements in the basis of their genuine popularity with the electorate, and not how the British political system chooses to divide up their votes.

Seriously?

My wife's a teaching assistant so I get to hear some stories, but nothing like that.

FTFY and one of the reasons for QT becoming increasingly irrelevant north of the border.

I would like this more than once if I could. An excellent point, which I think is valid for much of the North of England too.

 

[Inertia]

Given that, would you be in favour of some form of PR?

I agree and I'm a southerner. I find it embarrassing to see the bias.

They were on, but that particular program was only available in Scotland.

Remember the SNP where only available to 10% of the electorate, and its not Scotlands fault this westminster centric show is foisted upon us

SNP propaganda maybe belongs in Society Culture and Politics not the non political Cafe.
