Current Affairs 2017 General Election

Ah. As an aside, was it you or roydo who said they were a consultant in the healthcare field?

If so would you be affected by the EMA leaving? (I ask only because its been in Private Eye quite often).

Deffo isnt me. Unless I delivered a parcel to them.

I honestly wouldn't be that surprised if she stepped down for some unspecified reasons within the next week. Tory PMs do not chicken out of Women's Hour. (edit) Something is seriously wrong over there.

It's the Question Time leaders special thing on BBC tomorrow evening, so I am guessing that she wants as much time as possible to prepare for that as if it goes badly she really could be toast.

Thought that was last night.

Sake, another one?

Haha! Up against Britains Got Talent!

Oh, the irony.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

what do our European friends make of the proceedings?

The ones I've met still hope it won't happen. It would be branded by some as a comfy club, but we're disrupting many things that have worked very well.

The folks I was with this week help startups across Europe, and there were many British companies being helped to export into Europe. If the political will to do so goes....

That's me. I don't do so much on the pharma side, but it won't help healthcare in general to need to duplicate the EMA (and it will need duplicating)

The one tomorrow is for only May and Corbyn. It's in front of a live audience, but I don't think they will be on stage together at the same time.

Oh aye, it's David Dimbleby asking questions to Corbyn and May. No head to head, they'll probably take turns - 42 minutes or so each.

The same format where Ed produced this:

Oh, the irony.

You could certainly question the use of the word "debate" in the Question Time one and the word "talent" in BGT.

The only thing she hasn't chickened out of this election is the frigging One Show.

It's good to see and hear left-wing policies in the spotlight and actually being discussed. People will get sick of the Tories unfair right-wing agenda. In fact, I think they already are becoming sick of it. Throw a weak leader who shies away from debate into the mix and there's a recipe for disaster.

Did you see the Armando Ianucci quote?

The only person May has debated on TV has been her husband.

Oh Ed

Oh Ed

Tragic guy.

Does anyone see 'vote conservative' signs in people's windows where they live?
