[Beefy]

Wants to ban the burka because the lack of vitamin D from sunlight. 😂

 

[Spaghetti]

Ah that old "BUT WE BUY GERMAN CARS SO THEY'LL GIVE US ANYTHING WE WANT" argument.

Yeah, let's all start buying great British cars instead like... uhhhhhhhhhh

 

[PackAPunchedMick]

So this isn't a head to head? booooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Corbyn would have quite literally ripped May a new arsehole .

 

[Spaghetti]

Andrew Neil twisting the fucking knife hoooooly shit hahaha.

 

[Ravensmash]

I always wonder what they talk about after these interviews as the credits roll.

"Weather hasn't been too good today has it? "

 

[Beefy]

So this isn't a head to head? booooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Corbyn would have quite literally ripped May a new arsehole .

May isn't doing any head to head talks

"Huddersfield Fucking Town?, Are you taking the piss? The English game is ruined"

 

[Real Hero]

You are no nigel farage

All he had to say was ' and thank god for that!'

There is audience questions though which might make it interesting.

That would have pissed off the solid UKIP base that loved Nige. It's quite a cult.

 

[Xando]

May isn't doing any head to head talks

And we all know why.

 

[Doctor_Thomas]

It won't. The whole thing will be a shambles and May will get off lightly and Corbyn will look like Satan.

 

[Real Hero]

I know haha, I suppose I mean all he needed to say for me to respect him a little more

 

[satriales]

Feel like it's so much easier going second. Can respond to previous person and judge how their answer went down etc.

Surely they should have just alternated to make it fair?

They did a coin toss. Corbyn won and chose to go first.

 

[Wes]

Hope Paxman is on form.

 

[Doctor_Thomas]

No matter who wins this "debate", May already lost because she won't debate him properly. This is a distraction.

 

[Real Hero]

Hope Paxman is on form.

I cant stand him, last time he couldn't hide being massivly pro tory

 

[sammex]

Are these screened/pre-planned questions? (as in May/Corbyn know what's going to be asked)

 

[Empty]

ffs a security question straight away

 

[JonathanEx]

Are these screened/pre-planned questions? (as in May/Corbyn know what's going to be asked)

Sky/C4 know, May/Corbyn won't.

 

[sammex]

Sky/C4 know, May/Corbyn won't.

Excellent.

 

[D4Danger]

I wish this was all one of so that I could post it on FB lol

here ya go

[SlipperyFishes]

For anyone not near a tv but wants to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y60wDzZt8yg

Edit: Me slow

 

[Rodelero]

Extremely strong start for Corbyn.

 

[JonathanEx]

A fairly solid start I'd agree. No amazing soundbyte lines, but probably for the best. Standing his ground well.

 

[Empty]

corbyn's answers are common sense. he talks straightforwardly which might be a good contrast for later.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Good, but not amazing. Probably because, in a fairly sad indictment of our times, you need those key phrases - Strong and Stable, Make America Great Again, etc. Corbyn can't make a soundbite.

 

[Doctor_Thomas]

IRA - 2nd question.

 

[PJV3]

I cant stand him, last time he couldn't hide being massivly pro tory

Yeah it's a shame how he ended up, letting a Tory politician insult some poor bugger from the EU for ages on newsnight.

Edit: A shit post, sorry, but I'm on mobile so no further context. Bleugh.

 

[Pandy]

what I imagine tonight's debate will look like

Genius.

 

[SlipperyFishes]

Yep, this is a Unionist plant.

 

[JonathanEx]

IRA - 2nd question.

They're fair questions. But I also wonder how much of the non-Irish electorate care more than the economy, health, etc.

Batted off well.

 

[PackAPunchedMick]

Strong start from Corbyn, Brushed the IRA question off quite easily.

 

[Humidex]

IRA - 2nd question.

Managed to keep his temperament quite well there.

 

[Fergie]

"I like your policies, but are you the right man for the job?"

Lmao.

 

[WhateverItTakes]

Uh did he use the right finger to point to his mouth there? Lol.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

That's the first time Corbyn's really managed to nail the leadership response. Not bad. He's really grown into this campaign.

 

[Real Hero]

"I like your policies, but are you the right man for the job?"

Sigh

 

[Tregard]

Avoided "Hell yes I'm tough enough", so that's a plus

 

[jelly]

I liked his answer there at the end.

 

[Empty]

he's doing great so far!

 

[Real Hero]

He's on a roll

 

[Deleted member 231381]

MY PATH

 

[CCS]

I am not much of a Corbyn fan, but he's nailing it so far. Handled the hard question on the IRA well and done very well on the easier questions.

 

[D4Danger]

Uh did he use the right finger to point to his mouth there? Lol.

 

[nOoblet16]

Lul

Which question was it again?

 

[Deleted member 231381]

jc flipping the bird at the entire uk electorate all casual

thug lyfe

 

[empyrean]

Actually impressed so far.

 

[SlipperyFishes]

this is going to be used by the Tories to no end
