Current Affairs The General Election

The BBC gave the LP assurances before yesterday's interview was granted to Neil that the Tories were signed up to exposing that 'kin clown of theirs to interview...it was a lie, they haven't.

That paedo-supporting propaganda machine needs to be demolished forever.

Unbelievable. Maybe there'll post an old interview of Johnson and Neil by mistake.

How does discussions about laws affecting global businesses differ from Labours push towards Unitary taxation of multinational corporations? Surely to move towards that kind of model Labour would need to have those sort of discussions too?

But they are not doing these things behind our backs while lying to our faces.

But we know that there have been talks about a possible US/UK trade deal since after Brexit. The US even published a list of their wants in February- https://ustr.gov/sites/default/files/Summary_of_U.S.-UK_Negotiating_Objectives.pdf

It’s not exactly the homerun that anyone seems to think it is.

And he resigned on principle about a year and a half ago over Mays proposed deal.....

Boris has just been bingoed on the NHS... Sweet, you just can't trust Tory's with the NHS.

I think Boris is washing his hair that night.....

He's a coward

What a surprise. Absolutely f*kin outrageous.

Andrew Neil is currently chewing up and spitting out what remains of party leaders. Not surprised in the slightest that Boris is running scared.

It's a shame, but also a sign of our times, that anybody that has the nous to know what questions to ask, plus the knowledge to know when he's getting bull***ed, can so easily run rings around our top politicians.

It's not even about Corbyn though mate. It's about you having lived through and seen the devastating impact a Tory government has had on the most vulnerable people in society. It's about you not being arsed because as long as you are sound what does anybody else matter? It's a selfish position to take, it's a lack of compassion, it's a lack of empathy.

We are a working class city and a working class club. We are raised with the knowledge that people less fortunate than yourself aren't to be mocked, aren't to be sneered at and aren't to be abused. Our public services have been decimated, Our schools a mess, the NHS on it's knees and the only thing people can muster is attacks on Jeremy Corbyn. It's sad bottom feeder type stuff and these people are complicit in the rise of poverty, homelessness and worst of all? The avoidable deaths that this government have caused.

You need to read some of my other posts. I am arsed about the poor and vulnerable and it’s because I come from a similar background and did ok, I want others to do the same. But they need opportunity, not just handouts. I’ve lived through some diabolical times, both Labour and Tory. While I would personally sack every last one of them and start again my judgement tells me that a lying duplicitous Boris will do more good for our economy, and therefore ability to help the disadvantaged, than a lying duplicitous Corbyn could ever do...

I‘ll grant you I’ve been winding up one or two Corbynistas on here, but I believe in similar things as yourself, we will just differ in the best way to achieve them.......

Johnson has said 'its not even up for discussion'

Seems an awful lot like it's being discussed...

I couldn't see any politician of any time running rings around Neil. He's relentless and does his research. That being said, Johnson is a shithouse.

Is it though? I could write on a piece of paper ‘Jebus_Lives will give me 100% of his wage each month’ unless there’s an agreement it’s just there on the paper, especially if I’m doing it to impress voters back home.

Unless you or I were sat in those discussions we have literally no clue.

He also sets the agenda. Like any decent interviewer should do.

Makes the game ever so slightly stacked in their favour. Which is good.

There is literally a record of the DIT and US negotiators discussing it...

In your scenario we wouldn't have an agreement, but we might have discussed it.

Have you just made that up Dave?

I've looked for that everywhere on the net but can't see any references to any BBC assurances.

I agree Johnson is most likely avoiding him though.
