I'm watching question time and she is literally making me cringe.
Is it just me?

I remember Anna Soubry from when she was a presenter on local TV in the Midlands. Probably 20 years ago. She came across as rather, er, unlikeable even then and that was before we knew her politics.

Thank you. V clever then.

Douglas Carswell is looking somewhat erratic

Chippednailvarnish · 07/04/2016 23:21

He look terrified!

God but Irvine Walsh is so annoying. Slow and self important. Like being lectured by a drunk in a bar.

Behooven · 07/04/2016 23:22

Someone on the panel is click click clicking a pen! 😬

Chippednailvarnish · 07/04/2016 23:22

Given how much I have liked his books, he rather dull.

Anna Soubry appears to have a decent voting record though

SouthWestmom · 07/04/2016 23:24

Chippednailvarnish · 07/04/2016 23:25

Haven't had a good fight on it for ages.
The labour man is quite good though.
Agree about Irvine Welsh

SouthWestmom · 07/04/2016 23:28

This is VERY important. Did she just say he paid capital gains tax?

Chippednailvarnish · 07/04/2016 23:32

Missed that.

I agree with Chris Bryant about steel...

"God but Irvine Walsh is so annoying. Slow and self important. Like being lectured by a drunk in a bar."

Exactly this.

WavingFlag · 07/04/2016 23:38

Did someone say Ruth is only 51Shock

Shut up now Anna

Chippednailvarnish · 07/04/2016 23:40

But I'm the minister Grin

OP posts:
SwedishEdith · 07/04/2016 23:44

She's 68

Behooven · 07/04/2016 23:44

I'm going to say that next time do disagrees with me, "excuse me" "that's not my advice, I'm the minister"

Lucydogz · 07/04/2016 23:45

'But this is really important' (AS has said it at least 3 times tonight)

Chippednailvarnish · 07/04/2016 23:46

She just talks over people. All the time.

I turned it off because I cannot stick Anna Soubry.

She is so pompous. She thinks her opinion is the only one and she gives no others any credence at all.

movpov · 08/04/2016 00:48

She was on QT a few weeks ago and was even more annoying - talked over everyone constantly to extent Dimbleby admonished her & Labour guy ( can't remember exactly who it was) saying no one could hear anything if they were going to talk at the same time. Although still patronising, she's a bit less shouty tonight - think maybe the image folk have had a word. Irvine Welsh looked like he couldn't be bothered & I thought hat guy was a bit drunk

Itinerary · 08/04/2016 00:56

Every other QT seems to have Anna Soubry on it!

But I found Chris Bryant the most annoying panellist this evening. Interrupting, often wagging his finger at the other panellists, and staring icily at Ruth Lea as she spoke (when he wasn't interrupting her).

FancyShrew · 08/04/2016 01:04

So patronising and condescending. She did Cameron's case no favours at all - anyone who actually did think he'd 'done nothing wrong' when she started defending him might even have changed their minds after listening to her whitewash. Her ridiculous remark about 'tribal' points made me cackle as well.

movpov · 08/04/2016 01:10

Yeah Chris Bryant and Anna Soubry were constantly interrupting Ruth Lea and you could tell she was getting really pissed off.
