Anyone planning on watching?

OP posts:

Why did Corbyn get to have a sit down and May is standing up? is this live? such a different format for the second interview.

Whistleblower0 · 29/05/2017 21:22

Thought Corbyn did really well. I wanted to punch paxman on his behalf.Angry

GlitterGlue · 29/05/2017 21:22

I imagine Theresa will negotiate in much the same way a small child does when demanding a biscuit before dinner.

Dawnedlightly · 29/05/2017 21:22

She didn't say how many armed officers there are now, did she? And she wasn't pressed by this wet lettuce Hmm

PonderLand · 29/05/2017 21:23

@windy Jeremy Corbyn did the audience questions as well, then went on to have an interview with paxman.

DriftingDreamer · 29/05/2017 21:23

She is being allowed to waffle,,,

Saucery · 29/05/2017 21:24

Don't just talk to Faisal!

WindyWednesday · 29/05/2017 21:25

Thank you ponder I missed that bit. Unloading the dishwasher.

DriftingDreamer · 29/05/2017 21:27

She has not had much applause yet....

Whistleblower0 · 29/05/2017 21:28

As usual, all waffle, not a single questioned answered. What the fuck is the point of Faizel Islam? (I think that's his name.)

Topseyt · 29/05/2017 21:28

May still cannot say what the cap will be for social care. She has had at least a week now to sort that one out and clearly hasn't.

Doje · 29/05/2017 21:29

Oooh, she didn't get away with that comment on Labour's figures!

brieandcrackers · 29/05/2017 21:30

Thought Jeremy did well in the audience questions segment.

Also think he was great in the Paxman bit - kept his cool despite interruption halfway through every single answer (you'd think as an educated guy he would understand JC's requests to let him finish)

No doubt the man who dubbed himself a "one-nation Tory" will be a bit softer on May!!

Allthebubbles · 29/05/2017 21:31

The audience just laughed at TM on school funding. She's so rubbish.

BorisTrumpsHair · 29/05/2017 21:31

I can barely stand to listen to May waffle on.

I'm very late to being won over by Corbyn, but I think he did very well.

intheknickersoftime · 29/05/2017 21:32

She's being allowed to evade and not answer the questions.

MunchMunch · 29/05/2017 21:33

Nice dodge on the £350m brexit lie! Hmm

LuluLovesFruitcakes · 29/05/2017 21:33

I am tired, but I feel she's talking in circles and buzzwords and I can't make sense of what she's saying... is she actually answering the questions?

Can someone help me out here 😬

Flatpackback · 29/05/2017 21:34

What economic progress in thee last few years? The national debt is larger than when they came to power.

BillyButtfuck · 29/05/2017 21:34

I come from a conservative family, my grandparents and parents won't entertain any sort of conversation about other parties or candidates.

I'm voting labour.

I can't believe what I'm watching tonight.
May looks uncomfortable and like she doesn't want to be there. She's skirting all of the issues and she's a weak excuse of a leader.

I think she called this election because she was cocksure and needed the formality of an election to gain a larger majority. She didn't want to partake in debates and she can't be bothered with this either.

DriftingDreamer · 29/05/2017 21:34

Not impressed so far but sure many are...

BorisTrumpsHair · 29/05/2017 21:36

I just don't believe a word May says.

All Im hearing is blah blah blah blah blah.

scottishbride · 29/05/2017 21:37

I can't make sense of it either. But if I had a shot every time she said "strong" then I would be paralytic!

TheQueenSnortsAvocados · 29/05/2017 21:38

Loving the random audience member clearly mouthing, "Bollocks. That's bollocks." Grin

bloomingheather · 29/05/2017 21:38

I totally agree Lululoves - I am zoning out here. Total waffle and emptiness. Also a load of vague, non-sequiturs and blanket statements like we need to give children "a really good education" and "a good nhs". There is absolutely no substance to any of this.
She has certainly made good use of the "using people's first names to appear sincere" trick though - it's coming over as the opposite though!
