Q and A corbyn and may

[catgirl1976]

Jeremy has been excellent so far I think.

[KingJoffreysRestingCuntface]

More of Teresa May gurning?

Not sure I can cope.

[SmileEachDay]

I think Corbyn came across well in that first section

[Awks]

He's very eloquent and believable. Though 30 odd years as an MP should help.

[MissionItsPossible]

Jeremy has impressed me beyond any expectations I had. Very compassionate and articulate, the most lively I've seen him which is a shame so late into the game.

[specialsubject]

Like the format - not politicians yelling at each other, but politician answering questions.

Not sure about this next bit , let's see....

[catgirl1976]

I think Paxo is being a bit off. This isn't JC's personal manifesto it's the Labour Party's

[thesourceofLoveandLight]

catgirl - me too. be interested to see if he is like this with May.

[SmileEachDay]

Yeah - I think Paxman is just seeing if he gets flustered.

[WhereYouLeftIt]

Well what's the point of asking a question and then talking over the answer.

[catgirl1976]

We should have a drinking game - every time TM says "strong and stable" we have a shot. :) Could be lethal

[PurpleDaisies]

Why is he asking about the monarchy? It's not in their manifesto.

[MissionItsPossible]

To be fair this just seems like normal Paxman to me. If he is softer on TM I will be disappointed.

[SmileEachDay]

You hear it a lot with Paxman...he's so used to politicians not answering the question maybe...

[MissBax]

I don't understand how anyone can watch Corbyn and not agree with and support him 😞

[SmileEachDay]

Ooh good idea Cat

[catgirl1976]

Exactly - it's like pressing him because he believes in the Loch Ness Monster in his personal life.

He may well do - but it's got feck all to do with the manifesto (unless they had added a bit about bringing back Nessie hunting which I may have missed_)

[catgirl1976]

[SmileEachDay]

I do wish he'd get rid of Abbot though. I think she's a liability.

[catgirl1976]

Yes she's dreadful. Needs to go.

[WhingyNinja]

I agree MissBax. I am very much a Corbyn fan.

[flamingnoravera]

Watching now and I think he's doing well. Pushing him on his personal views is pretty low. He knows he could not abolish the monarchy, and tbh as an ardent anti-monarchist myself, I can see benefits to it given the debacle of a president in the USA.

[marmite157]

Paxo is dreadful, ask a question and let him answer!

If JC is waffling close him down ..... but he's not even getting the chance!!

[Crunchymum]

No point me watching, I posted my vote on Friday

[flamingnoravera]

And unfortunately I agree that Diane Abbot is not the best ambassador for the party.
