David Dimbleby presents this week’s show from Exeter. On the panel are: Conservative MP Liam Fox, Labour MP Kate Hoey MP, founder and chairman of Wetherspoons Tim Martin, former Lib Dem leader Paddy Ashdown and an irrelevant Welsh person
Kick off Thursday at 22.55
Something desperately wrong with this weeks panel.
Surely a mistake? Fox , Hoey & Weatherspoons guy all for Brexit!
That is majority of the panel for BREXIT?
No, cannot be right.

What a sad pathetic politician Paddy Pantsdown is. Objects to scare tactics and too much use of statistics then proceeds with arguments constantly based on fear and statistics. He even tried to scare everyone with the macho narcissistic midget Putin.
Enjoyed tonight’s programme though.Pro Brexit audience. Pro Brexit panel. Most unusual.

Pantsdown and Clarke seem to have sold theie souls to the EU for some reason I can’t fathom.
I seem to remember that Pantsdown was the EU’s Lord High Representive and Plenipotentate in the Balkans, so he may be anxious about losing his pension when there is a Brexit.
The Remainers seem to be a bit desperate. They have started to preface any pro-EU remark with “the EU is not perfect, but..” Many people seem to have a visceral distrust of the EU/Europe probable for good reasons.
Recently, I could not find compost starter in a supermarket and asked a sales assistant.
Don’t you stock compost starter anymore?
No, I’ve not seen it for years
Strange, maybe it’s not organic enough
It’ll be Europe – they’re always banning things.
The German media is full of the Queen’s birthday and no word about Brexit.
You would think the Germans would be in a state of high anxiety if a Brexit would mean the end of Europe and the world as we know it.

Pantsdown and Clarke are two of our best assets. Buffoons, both of them.

I guess ” irrelevant Welsh person ” makes a change from “irrelevant Scotch person “. Are you sure you did not mean “Welch” ? LOL !
Charlatans, yes strange but it may be so the BBC can rebut accusations of bias. They do this from time to time. Expect the ratio to tilt back towards the EUriners in the future.

Yes the irrelevant scotch QT panellists have outnumbered the irrelevant Welsh ones haven’t they?

There are a lot of ‘irrelevant’ Welsh voters going to vote UKIP on the 5th of May .
Labour and Plaid are worried , very worried.

If a plwyd cymru or snp politician appears on the QT panel in an English town or city then they are irrelevant, because no English voter would have voted for them. I do not mean that they are irrelevant just because they are Welsh or scotch.

And , of course, the same applies when an English person appears on the panel in Scotland or Wales.

Even if they represent a Welsh or scotch constituency? Gosh that’s not very tolerant of you then. I didn’t call Liam Fox irrelevant, even though he’s scotch, because he represents an English constituency.

I am simply clarifying my position, so that people don’t assume that I have an irrational fear of celtic persons. How do you control your apparent latent Anglophobia?

I do not have any latent nor non-latent Anglophobia, so there is nothing to control.

Julio,
Scotland has a larger population and more MPs, so that is what I would expect.

Steve,
She would probably talk more sense than the politicians with added bonuses too.

Ah yes, the great BBC trick of (very) occasionally offering token balance – enjoy it while it lasts folks

Just as they very occasionally state the race/ethnicity of a minority ethnic involved in crime…
And very occasionally don’t state it when its an indigenous Brit (as in case of Glasgow bin lorry driver). Tbf, that was the police rather than the BBC.

Was delighted to hear woman have a go at the junior doctors though! As she says it IS all about money, they currently get a lot of overtime for weekends and will have to work them routinely having days off in the week instead under the new contract.

I think it’s a toss up between Pantsdown and Heseltwat as to who is the most patronising and supercilious c**t to appear on QT panels – based on his performance tonight I think Paddy edges it.

Wood scored quite highly in that respect as well.

Never thought I’d say it or see it but Pantsdown is now challenging Kinnock senior for the ‘Lord Windbag’ championship.

And he’s got a more irritating and pompous manner than Kinochio!
