Yes. Obviously.

Between Shouty McBleachBlonde in the audience and Paddy Pantsdown about to blow a gasket this is hysterical!

That was up there with Fools-and-Horses on entertainment value.

[Stu78]

So much hypocrisy coming from the SNP/Lab/Lib contingent on that panel, wish I hadn't watched it now, it's left me proper wound up.

They shouted for weeks before the election and they'll shout for weeks after it. None of that will change the fact that they lost and there's nothing they can do about it.

But who does arrange the audiences?

She was great. Left wing bingo. Murdoch, Thatcher, ranty, nose ring etc etc

People voted love, you lost. Democracy.

It's great isn't it; morons like this shouting the odds about ancient history before they were even conceived(if she was more than 25 I'll eat paddy's hat) going on about fking thatcher. No mention of the poisonous bilge put out in the Daily Mirror or similar quality periodicals. They're all st but the effect more or less balances out because the distribution of stupid people is quite even across the political spectrum.

As for the lesbian; guess what, your MP doesn't have to be gay to adequately represent you. I don't fret about my MP never having worked as a marine engineer, or the fact he's catholic while I think religion is a crock; he's there to represent me, not be me.

As a temporary measure you could use Hola! which is a Google Chrome add-on, I've used it in the past and it seems to work OK.

Get a VPN, some are free some you pay a minimum amount. If you are abroad a lot I'd suggest paying for one.
