I liked DD's impatient "Yes, yes we already know all that" a few times when Truss tried to come out with the standard anti-EU catchphrases.
She's so fking annoying. She talks way to slowly and manages to actually say fk all whilst doing it.Abbotpotamus is the same, and DD isn't far behind - he wastes so much time. Get on with it man!

You can follow us on twitter, and, er what's that other thing, oh yes, Facebook, and on-line and on the radio. And the red button. Our hashtag is #getonwithit at BBC.com and just to remind you all if you want to take part next week we will be in somewhere else, and the week after we will be in somewhere else too. Repeat three or fours times.Edited by Ayahuasca on Friday 26th February 14:50
I'm sure he's a good man, but I don't think I trust that vicar. Reason: populist vicar. Or Abbot - liar. Or JHB - gobby. Or Truss -Gov minister. Or Felloes - dramatist dreamer (head in clouds). Don't think I'll watch any more of these shows, it's embarrassing.
Bring back Heseltine, Rees-Mogg, Farage, Galloway (just for a laugh) and Hitchens. Big hitters with much bottom. It stopped being critical politics a long time ago and descended into the BBC's idea of show-biz/satire/farce. That's the only explanation I can think of.

I always imagine the ministers going, 'Did you see me, did you see me, did you see me?' to the PM after the show and getting a biscuit if he thinks they did well.
Those biscuits? Hobnobs. Cobnapint said:

^ I think this is part of modern MP training isn't it? They all do this as a way to avoid answering the question....... the classic QT tactic is to start every reply with a 30 second preamble that nobody could possibly disagree with "Well it is vital Britain has a strong economy...... blah blah" YOU DON'T SAY!. fking hard to watch at times it really is. Dianne and Liz were quite frankly pathetic in their arguments to remain IN. God boy's view on immigration won't be widely popular, but I thought his point about our politicians should not be able to give away our powers to the EU and how this issue is bigger than whether we will be a couple of quid better or worse off was spot on.
Zoe Williams - some of her recent columns in the Grauniad have been entertaining, but not in the way she intended. She believes that silicon valley is some egalitarian hotpsot where the tech companies rally to each other's cries to help find solutions to various problems...and not a dog-eat-dog devil take the hindmost situation. How can anyone be that deluded?
She is also on record as believing that there really is a 'magic money tree' aka the Bank of England whereby we can simply print new money to spend on teachers, nurses and doctors.
Could be good telly if there were anyone on the panel ready to point out a few facts to her...
