Didn't watch the debate, but it sounds like Corbyn easily won.

Shaded it...

Shaded it...

I understand that the classy ITV planted a load of Tories in the audience to sneer and jeer throughout. In that context, a clear win.

Still, the sheep will vote for the Tories to get their Brexit done...then get battered for the next 5 years. Nobheads.

Shaded it...

No Dave. He was way too hesitant. He didnt debate or challenge Johnson anywhere near enough. Was horribly frustrating to watch.

Best thing I ever did was go part time...3 days a week (less money) but the peace of mind it gave me can't be calculated in monetary terms...wish I had done it earlier tbh...I appreciate that it is not the universal panacea but I can honestly say that I wouldn't be here now if I had continued full time. Surely we should be hoping to achieve this work/life balance, as an aim not an immediate solution.

There are really very few ideas to stick to a five day working week except for the fact that it's the way things are done.
Just like much else - we've got a real chance to move Britain forward into a progressive, modern society rather than one in thrall to the old economy and the outdated ways of thinking. There are a variety of ways to do this, and Greens, Labour, Lib Dems, SNP, all have their own views on this. I personally think Labour are the only way about it. The only thing that any one who looks at the genuine ideas and research in to this can know with complete certainly is that the Tories are not the party for this. They are a party that will hurt the country by refusing to let it move forward into a more equal, happier, and better supported society.

From the clips I saw the only revealing moment was Johnson getting laughed at when he said he was telling the truth. Everyone knows he's a liar. Even the sheep who'll vote for him just to get Brexit done (his one and only card to play) know he;'s a liar and will expect an utter toeing for the next 5 years.

Go figure. I'm done with the tools in this country. It's not that one I was born and brought up in. I feel like an alien here.

Don‘t be despondent Dave, whatever the result, and I know you and I wish for differing outcomes, we will still be basically the same country trying to overcome the same problems......

I'm just saying that he came across as weak and impotent. To be clear I detest Johnson with a passion.

Oh look, some person no one has ever heard of has left the Labour Party. Whatever will we do...

Well the people of Keith Vaz’s constituency will know him and will draw their own conclusions. He’s not a world figure but I suspect that particular constituency will draw conclusion from his words......one seat at a time.....

No. It's finished. Its people are thick.
