You think that the debates have absolutely zero impact on anything, yet go as far as to put forward quite a conspiracy that the BBC choose their studio audience in favour of one political party? I mean, that's a lot on the line, don't you think?

According to the BBC web-site they asked an independent polling company called ComRes to choose an audience that was representative of the country both demographically and politically.

Farron is the biggest bell currently involved in politics. Nuttall rightly known for being a bell but he's not on par with Farron imo, who's a grade a gobsh##te.

This just in: Chamberlain bigger bell than Hitler, says our political correspondent in the Upper Bullens.

Lol! Did you just compare Nuttall to Hitler?! Seriously mate, just behave eh? I can't stand Nuttall but that's just ludicrous.

I'm going to stay away from economics here as many have been saying it's all about Brexit.

Who you want to represent us depends on your own view, I suppose.

If you want someone to "go into battle" with the EU and "win" a settlement with the EU being "the losers" and walk away if they think they haven't "won" then vote for the tories by all means.

If you want someone to negotiate an agreement to the benefit of both parties then I'm not so sure I'd have them as the people to do it.

I say this because nobody ever wins an argument. One party may concede but the other will resent them for it. In this scenario, resentment means jobs, finance and the livelihoods of potentially millions of people on both sides of the channel.

Is the price of "victory" really worth it?

Also, by focusing the issue on Brexit and Brexit alone, the tories are sneaking in drastic measures to extract money from the people and give it to their donors.

I still have 15 pages to catch up on but in case it hasn't been mentioned yet, look up the Naylor report which advocates selling off all the NHS real estate with an added £10bn sweetener giveaway to the interested parties.

And the bloke in charge of it all is or was on the board of the largest private healthcare company in America. Enough said.

Think about all the issues.

I think he means Eddie Hitler, lid.

His ranting tonight though, what a complete and utter meff.

They must be panicking, if Corbyn pulls this off it has to go down as the greatest election victory of all time.

I can't see an outright win for Labour. Corbyn will have done a great job if the Tories don't get an overall majority and a very decent one if they limit the Tories to less than, say, a 30 seat majority.

I've been quite critical of Corbyn, but I state that I have been taken aback about how well we've been campaigning.

Oh well if that's the case fair enough @Clint Planet.

You'll get no arguments from me about that buffoon Nuttall mate, he's an odious rat.

The other night Paxman interrupted Corbyn 54 times. He interrupted May 6 times.

Why doesn't that surprise me?

And that largely is down to the centre right Labour MPs shutting their dirty grids because they latched on pretty early to the possibility that he could save them their own seats if they kept discipline and didn't stab him in the back....dealing with those backstabbers should be a primary post election objective.

I have to agree but cant help dreaming big.

Because everyone knows Paxman is an attention whore?

A tory attention whore though.

That's the kind of comment that could derail the momentum.
Concentrate on what's wrong with the Tories and not Labour!!
