JP is so irritating, I hope he treats Theresa the same 😠

DriftingDreamer · 29/05/2017 21:12

Noone going to answer me or don't know....
Paxman is an arse but hope he as big an arse to TM...

TheCakeScoffer · 29/05/2017 21:11

So just because it was sooo long ago, its ok to have a terrorist sympathiser as PM then ? JeezHmm

scottishbride · 29/05/2017 21:10

I know!! Someone should time how much time JP has spoken for and how much time JC has spoken for- I put this on to listen to JC not JP!!!!

EnthusiasmIsDisturbed · 29/05/2017 21:10

Can see where this line of questioning is going

He really needs to stop saying listen and going into his rally speeches

Doje · 29/05/2017 21:10

Drifting, I don't think anyone knows...

Doje · 29/05/2017 21:09

So close to switching off because of Paxman. (DH won't let me) He's not the letting Corbyn answer the questions before butting in. It's not good journalism.

Embolio · 29/05/2017 21:09

I wish paxman would let him answer and stop interrupting! It's driving me mad.

Regarding the IRA, ok, but it's all a very long time ago. I mean, Martin McGuiness was a former IRA commander and he was deputy first minister of Northern Ireland - politics has moved on, for better or worse.

And now paxman is going on about the falklands - it's 30 bloody years ago!! Talk about something relevant.

Haffdonga · 29/05/2017 21:09

The single thing coming increasingly clear through this is that Paxman is a total areshole.

I actually want to hear what JC says, not JP's hectoring.

franke · 29/05/2017 21:08

Paxo makes me want to punch a wall.

DriftingDreamer · 29/05/2017 21:07

So- CAN TM hear all this? Or is she in a darkened media free room!!!!!!

Doje · 29/05/2017 21:07

It's on Channel 4 Hate

NannyOggsKnickers · 29/05/2017 21:06

Hardcore That piece is interesting and makes a really good point- being a 'bloody difficult woman' probably isn't the best approach if we want it done quickly, neat and to the benefit of the many and not the few.
Someone mentioned in a thread recently that May is a second string Tory and wouldn't usually be let near the top job. Brexit stuffed up the Tory line of succession.

WhingyNinja · 29/05/2017 21:06

I'm very intrigued to see how May does. I'm a Corbyn fan and think he's doing well.

Fancythat69 · 29/05/2017 21:05

Me to DriftingDreamer

HateSummer · 29/05/2017 21:05

Where is this on?

scottishbride · 29/05/2017 21:05

Does JP not realise that it's a Labour Party manifesto and not the Jeremy Corbyn manifesto??!

DriftingDreamer · 29/05/2017 21:02

JP is needs to let people answer questions.
Hope he is harsh on TM as well!

PinguPaws · 29/05/2017 21:02

I think he's doing well. Answering questions clearly and calmy. Certainly not patronising and aggressive the same May is, with her- I know what's best for you plebs- tone.

scottishbride · 29/05/2017 21:01

Drifting - I assume TM gets different questions??

DriftingDreamer · 29/05/2017 21:00

Someone answer my question please!

Bluntness100 · 29/05/2017 21:00

He's just fudging really. It's painful.

scottishbride · 29/05/2017 21:00

Paxman isn't even pretending to listen!

Doje · 29/05/2017 20:59

Corbin did brilliantly in part 1.

Jeremy Paxman is being an argumentative knob.

Awks · 29/05/2017 20:59

Does Paxman mean to be so rude?
