Neil Hamilton on BBCQT

[FrothyDragon]

AIBU to be FUMING over the smug look on his face when he told the panel/audience "I'm the only person on this panel who's been arrested on a false allegation of rape"? What the FLIP did that have to do with the question? WHY is he insistent on derailing the topic? WHY does he exist?

seethes

And don't get me started on Ken "Not all sexual assaults are as bad as each other" Loach. He can fuck the fuck off, and stop trying to define women's experience.

The subsequent BBC programme with Andrew O'Neil has got John Prescott talking about women's experience now. Oh, and here is Michael Portillo, too.

Brilliant. They all represent me so well...

And Hamilton - WHY ARE YOU STILL ON THE TELLY?! Go away now please, there never was any point to you.

Or is it Andrew Neil? I am rather glad I don't know his name properly.

Neil Hamilton was dragged on because he has something to do with UKIP now, and they can't keep getting Nigel Farage on, apparently.

I've stopped watching BBC One. Sister's worried I may give myself a hernia. WHY do men think it's their place to define the harm their violence against women causes women? knows the answer is because it suits them

It was a very awkward moment when Hamilton came out with that - don't think anyone knew quite how to react. Awful.

Mind you, that silly Tory woman didn't help with her comments on Lord Rennard not being very attractive. WTF does that have to do with anything?

Interesting, isn't it, that there were so many jaw-drop moments when it was broadcast live?

(It's normally recorded earlier in the evening.)

Hamilton and Tory Clare and Ken Loach were noticeably peculiar.

Yes, all three of them were intensely annoying. Though I loved dimbleby for telling Tory Clare to shut up and let him chair. :)

I didn't realise that it isn't normally live. Interesting!

I always thought it was live, too. Then I applied to go in the audience last year and was accepted, and when the researcher rang up to tell me the arrangements I couldn't go because they were filming too early in the evening!

Bloody hell, just watching This Week for the by-election results and ALL the panelist/discussants are men. All 5 of them. All in dark suits, light shirts and stripey ties.
