Hislop on Question Time tonight

[Fambo Number Mive]

He's on with Victoria Atkins MP, Jess Phillips MP, Kirsten Oswald MP and Mark Carney.

I don't usually watch this show but will make an exception as, while Hislop is rubbish on Have I Got News For You, he usually makes some good points on Question Time. I think he's better when he doesn't feel the need to be funny and just makes his points.

If he were to make a cutting incisive comment on Have I Got News For You in the past 20 years; it would probably have been cut out of the edit.

Can't stand the smug cunt to be honest. Maybe he'll take some government twats to task, though.

I don't understand why Question Time is always on so late. It hardly encourages more people to take an interest in politics if they wait until 10:35pm when many people are in bed.

On the other hand Question Time is usually a load of biased rubbish.

Mark Carney's book was published two days ago and Jess Phillips: My Life as an MP is out in a few weeks. I'm looking forward to some frank and forthright exchanges playing the Ian Hislop drinking game - one shot for every "Ummmm" after he's made a point.

Death CaB for QT.

It's not politics though. A KKK meeting in a tea room, more like.

I'd pass up Karl Marx on QT if one of the other guests was Phillips.

What if it was 3 Phillips...Melanie, Jess and Prince?

I'd hope they pour a concrete sarcophagus on the studio to contain them like they did with the radioactive stuff in chernobyl.

[Shoulders?-Stomach!]

He did expose Priti Patel as the mentally stunted chancer and bullying narcissist she is.

Watched part of this episode just now. Hislop was good on the millions wasted on the new briefing room and nuclear weapons. Maybe I like him on Question Time because I agree with much of what he says about the government. His comments on the news briefing room is on the Question Time instagram (which I know you all follow) and some gammon twit wrote "Millionaire lefty making a living from criticising the government". You know things are bad when people are calling Hislop a lefty.

I just don't know how much difference him being on Question Time makes. Probably not a lot.

Imagine what a difference a progressive, socialist BBC would make... it fucking makes a difference - except now the Sheeple are incapable of escaping their Red Sofa soaked thought control.
