Or Big Vlad
Thought that debate was pretty shocking overall. Johnson just repeated the same thing. Corbyn had some good moments, but avoided too many questions. Moderator was awful and some of the questions chosen were too similar and repetitive.

Agree, she didnt allow them enough time to answer the questions.
Not sure we learn anything from these live TV debates, its like watching Jeremy Kyle without the security. I really don't trust either of these individuals to run the country, if this is the best and brightest we have to offer then we are proper ******.

Spurs have sacked Pochettino.
I think the debate rules included time limits for everything which she was trying to stick to. Cockwomble kept rambling on and exceeded his limits for both his opening and closing statements. You'd think he would have rehearsed properly to ensure he stayed within the limits. That apart I thought she was a poor moderator who didn't really test either of them.
I hope there are proper Andrew Neil interviews with all the leaders broadcast at prime time on BBC1.
I watched the ITV interviews at 10pm and thought Swinson came across the best. Farage was terrible and Sturgeon wasn't much better.

Yes they all need the Neil treatment. Think that would be far more revealing than a silly willy waving debate

I'd be amazed if BoJo agreed to that - he can't handle pressure/going off script at all.

I would be amazed if Labour let Corbyn do it same for Swinson after the last time Neil interviewed her
Swinson will do anything for airtime part of the LD issue (and other parties outside the big two and the media love in with Farage) will always be getting their face in primetime slots so people see them.
Part of 'Cleggmania' was many peoples first introduction to Clegg was the TV debates.
I didn't watch any of it, I just can't be arsed, I'm never voting Tory and even if my vote did count I'd struggle to vote for Labour under Corbyn. General commentry seams to be most likely result is they both drove voters away from their parties rather than cnvinced anyone to vote for them.

It was a shocking performance from Andrew who actually made Boris look like a convincing liar. Andrew is a despicable individual and has brought a lot of shame to the royal family.

Philip Lee ("Lib Dem" MP) said they're open to working with the Tories to keep labour out of government.
Surprising absolutely nobody.
Surprising absolutely nobody.
Citation needed but he's a former Conservative MP and been a member a whole two months. Should be immediately kicked out and withdrawn party money.
It is amazing how many times MPs go "off piste" and come out with stuff which is clearly mad*.
*this is mad in one of two ways (i) he is telling the truth, in which case the Lib Dems will possibly fatally undermine their long term support [given the coalition still is brought up] or (ii) he is full of crap, in which case how does he think he's helping the party or himself by coming out with it?

Well it's all been agreed. Andrew Neil interviewing all the party leaders starting on the 25th.
Oooh, that'll be spicey.
If Johnson is after Corbyn - expect him to pull out at the last minute.

To be fair to Corbyn he's on Tuesday so Boris must follow suit...
