Question Time

[AdmiralAckbar]

P.S
Thank you for that.

Quote Salus to Hamble.
"Those aren't what Fiona Bruce was broadcasting lies to thw nation about so don't change the subject."

Don't get too carried away - what I said was ...

You are usually quite good at providing links to your sources

meaning you are quick to quote - I certainly wasn't commenting on how accurate or reliable those sources were!

Am still waiting for a source for the so called BBC apology you mentioned, although I'm not holding my breath.

... and what on earth is that Quote "Salus to Hamble" thrown in for? ... and you're the one saying my posts don't make sense!

The quote you said in which I agreed with Salus?

If not that post(which of course I do not agree with) what post do you mean?

Fiona Bruce is proving to be a very good host for the show.
I like her style.

Diane Abbott was the star of last nights show.
I really hope there will be a compilation of her 'best bits' in politics
what a lege!

There is no-one who can complain that the figures from the Polls are wrong because those figures have never been mathematically correct anyway - how many Polls have ever been correct?

It's clearly detailed in Post #16.

Is lying to the nation the style you like from state broadcasters?"

I do not agree with Salus.populi.
Fiona Bruce did not lie.

"Never heard of those left wing ones.

Scroll down to the polls on
'Preferred PM and Corbyn V May.

You did not get the joke.


Quote Admiralackbar
3."So by quoting the above link, where the two main parties have 3 polls each in their favour, are we to conclude that Hamble is actually agreeing with Salus when he said Fiona Bruce was incorrect stating Labour are behind in the polls?

Just wanted to check before I marked it in the calendar."

----------------------

Fiona Bruce(and the BBC/QT used YouGov poll as a non partisan poll compared to Guardian/Telegraph/Mirror/Labour friends of Tory/MSN/twitter any left wing or right wing or other vested interest/political leaning poll etc etc.


Bruce did not lie.
The BBC apologised for not making it clear their choice of poll was YouGov only.

Enjoy!

I did thank you.
Bit cringeworthy at times one can hardly believe she actually said some things.

[Hamble]

It really pains me when I read of Diane Abbott claiming the BBC were 'legitimising racist abuse' because she was interrupted more or jeered more on Question Time.
She's interrupted because she is one of the arch wafflers endemic within the political elite.
She was jeered, and perhaps had fun poked at her not, because of her race or gender, but - because she has been shown to be more than a bit dim on a number of occasions.

I am prepared to give her the benefit of doubt on her charge as it is serious.

Awaiting the verdict.
Perhaps the BBC will deliver tonight before QT.

Diane Abbott is an absolute imbecile.

YouGov was not mentioned at all on the programme. The discussion was about "polls" - plural.

BTW Yougov is owned and run by past Tory candidates. The previous CEO wrote a report that was adopted as Tory govenrment policy.

I suppose I should celebrate that you replied to one of my posts actually on topic instead of the usual tangent, but it's weird (borderline comedy tbh) how you still don't seem able to acknowledge that you posted a link which (whilst trying to argue against his point) actually backed up what Salus said (specifically, about Bruce being incorrect saying Labour were behind in the polls).

I don't have a specific axe to grind with Bruce, and although others have used the word "lie" (and their comments have been quoted in some of my responses so I can understand you confusion), I believe I used the word "mistaken" (as in that she was probably badly advised).

Having previously seen the video clip on social media, I have already detailed the actual (Bruce/Abbot) exchange in a previous post, and Abbot uses the word "polls" (plural) and Bruce interrupts her using the same word... trying to say now that it was one specific poll is once again a borderline comedy moment.

Finally, you once again used the word "apologised" ... can you show us ANYWHERE where the BBC have actually use the phrases "we are sorry for" or "we apologise for" or similar, as all we have from them so far is a statement that says "we should have made it clear" ... that's a statement, not an apology.

Diane Abbott is an absolute imbecile.

There must be careers she is more suited to than politics.

Are you sure of your information?
Be a dear and look it up.
