Question Time clap trap!!!!
Discussion
Well to save my blood pressure bubbling beyond boiling point, i've decided not to watch QT again. It has the most hand picked left wing audience i have ever seen. I know this has been discussed to death but honestly the fking crap that gets spouted from the hand picked lefty, tree swinging lentil munching green brigade who haven't a fking clue or decent debate amongst them.
I say this every week but i suppose out of curiosity i'll watch it again next week and again i'll get myself worked up shouting at the TV.
What a stupid bh that girl right at the end was, bleating on about the enviroment. If this is the sort of brainwashed people that are entering into our workforce then we are truly fked and i mean truly.
'What about green jobs' she exclaimed? - Er what about 'em ffs, get a fking grip.
Sorry i need to rant, heck i might even grab a beer and its only Thursday.
Annnnnd Breathe!!!!

think people on here make it out to be worse than it is? What about the guy who got rapturous applause for putting Yvette in her place about Taking money out of the economy? Pointing out putting it in his pocket isn't taking it out of the economy, and the state isn't the economy, he'd rather burn it than give it to them etc.

At which point Dimbleby got flustered and moved the questioning on...CHIEF said:

Yup, but it's because the BBC have to appeal to a wide audience. To compensate, after QT they have This Week, who's got a Labour MP every week who can only encourage people to vote Tory. I believe that QT is on before This Week because the lentil eaters don't have the stamina to stay up that late, so it only makes it fair that the steak munching This Week viewers have to stay up a bit later. I'm actually a vege, but no leftie.

At which point Dimbleby got flustered and moved the questioning on...Hmm, not sure I agree it's deliberately lefty biased by the Beeb. In fact as an organisation I don't think they are especially biased one way or the other. That's not to say there aren't programmes or presenters that have views, but I don't get offended by having different opinions to my own represented. I think the standard of journalism on the Beeb is better and less biased than say Sky News. Think Paxman and Humphries as two good examples.
The thing with QT is that the great unwashed who make up the audience can have some funny (peculiar) views, and on the whole are not that charismatic, so they come across as annoying. Plus they will clap at a pannelist who is good at rhetoric without seemingly understanding what's been said, that gets my goat a bit, but it shows how fickle people can be.
The one exception to this is the edition when the BNP were on - I thought that was biased and manipulated in the extreme. It would have been far better to let that odious idiot Griffin answer regular questions to show how utterly useless the BNP were rather than the witch hunt we got. Own goal by the BBC in my view.
I thought last nights show was good, though having Plaid on was scraping the barrel somewhat.

What? You have typed some words but they don't appear to make any sense?The guy handling complaints about bias at the BBC was a Labour councillor and was to be a parliamentary candidate!
The BBC not biased? Mwahahahahaha.

Of course, I only watch/listen to a very small % of the total output of the BBC, so the other 99.9999% of programmes might all be screaming lefty nonsense, but that's not my experience.
All you need to do is listen to John Humphries vs Mandleson on 'Today', Andrew Neil on 'This Week' - I don't see the left getting an easy time there. The only example of a truly lefty programme I can think of is 'The News Quiz' with that awful Sandy Tosksunpronouncabledykewigg, and Jeremy 'chip on my shoulder' Hardy - now that's lefty rubbish - it's what the off switch was invented for.
As to QT - I think it's pretty ballanced. The audience might not be, but that's the public for you, most of them don't know better - bless.
BBc not biased?

The Plaid leader is on often, and is usually the most sensible of the panelists. he said there would be charges way back last year and he was right.
Strictly speaking, a lot of us knew there were going to be charges. He just said it while others lied.FWIW, Mystic HiRich can also predict:
- There will be chokey
- There will be more charges [cough]SaddiqKhan[/cough]
