possibly not letting her in on the debates as the others will just have a field day calling her out then. I have never watched any of these debates, perhaps I will in the hope that they don’t just slag each other off.
It really varies. I've seen some which had great back and forth between the politicos, and others where is simply kindergarten noise. Also I find it a bit irritating when the Greens/ Plaid/ Libs/ SDP / DUP / BXP etc come on and say they will build loads of houses, balance the books, change the schools, support the NHS. They are never going to get in or do anything . The Beeb may as well ask me for a pre MotoGP interview about how I plan to beat Marquez.
Do you think it should be restricted to the two main parties then, in theory any party has a chance to be the majority - so shouldn’t they all get an equal chance ?
Would be great to see a real debate on tv. Ask some real questions about Cummings time in Russia, Boris and his Russian friends. Remarkable that BJ and pals call Corbyn a communist, yet the Tories have the most worrying links and are suppressing information about those links.
I think the country should be shown something on the BBC from all parties. The subsequent TV debates should remain in the hands of the TV companies imo. When Lucas / Swinson / Farage / Foster etc are popular enough, they will get airtime. Farage has proved this. However I don't want a lot of ridiculous posturing getting in the way of Blojob and Corbs scoring points off each other as this is a relevant conversation. Listening to Lucas make economic claims when the Greens can't ever get two MPs elected is nonsense.
I know what you mean, but without looking hard most of the media coverage is negative. Would be nice to (also perhaps ?) hear what they are going to do and how, without it being a slagging match.
I agree, but is it supporting a ‘two party’ system. Maybe Conservatives and Labour losing heavily would ‘shake things up a bit’ ?
