I despair.

The usual lefty audience (although it is in Scotland) railing against the cuts and pretending we can keep spending at will. SNP and labour joining in the argument against the cuts but at the same time saying they had plans to cut the deficit. Conservative guy explaining the horrendous scale of the problem and explaining that the deficit is only the rate that the massive debt is increasing, whilst Douglas Alexander sits there shaking his head.

Now a stroppy and exceptionally gormless woman looks like she's about to cry because her council flat is a bit crap and is telling the lib dem guy to get a grip. Then there's Ed Byrne - funny comedian, but politically retarded.

But still I watch it like a lemming every week....

I couldn't agree more. I've actually got to the point where I can't watch QT without my p1ss starting to boil at the retardedness of the people who every week make up 98.9% of the audience. What part of the 150,000 million pound clusterfeck that Gordon Brown left like a steaming turd in DC's office do these people not understand?

'My council flat is really small. I can't get a job. I can't go to college. I look like a boy.'

Boo f£cking hoo love, write to Gordon and complain if you feel that strongly.

I'm not watching it anymore.

Their headline panelist next week is Andy Burnham FFS!

Only Newsnight when Paxo is on and This Week for me now.

YOu should watch Big Question then, that tends to have more 'righties' (usually of the spiritual kind) on the rostum than 'lefties'.

Bugger that, I'd rather watch a bunch of froth mouthed leftie athiests than a bunch of froth mouthed rightwing god botherers.

Here's a reminder of how QT used to be. Intelligent guests given plenty of air time and an audience who kept themselves in order (Jack Straw heckle excepted!)
