Balanced Question Time panel tonight - of course not! VOL 2

[Wiccan of Darkness]

Yuppers. Should make for a painful post mortem. Wonder if anyone will twig how and why everythings gone to hell in a handcart or if as usual they'll all blame each other

[Cobnapint]

Shami Chicken Arrabiata! Probably not now you ask.

[ikarl]

Wearing fking headphones round his neck. dhead.

[Randy Winkman]

Chris Grayling is brave.

I like Armando Iannucci.

Conversation so far shows how terrible the hook-up with the DUP is. Shameful.

I'm terrified of her over acting

Grayling getting ripped a new one, and deservedly so.
He has not the wit to even start to defend the DUP situation

Oakshott crying like a baby.

Oh no nothing to do with brexit, don't say it undermines brexit.

Tough titty, yes it does. Democracy in action - suck it up!

It is very pleasing to see the wind taken out of the sails of these brexiteers - you can tell by their wailing they know their mandate is totally screwed.

How? The Brexit mandate is from the referendum, not the GE.

[Patrick Bateman]

What about the likes of Goldsmith if it was about Brexit?

As an aside, Chakrabarti is horrific.

May made it clear her clear Brexit mandate was in a bigger majority from this election.

The DUP marriage is totally shameful.

I like the blonde woman.... and she doesn't like shammi. Win

[///ajd]

Oakshott loosing her cool.

Terrific stuff! The badge of a loser.

[Northern Munkee]

I think I may have to take a digital detox for a couple weeks, FB, twitter and the usual guff on BBCQT.

Amazing how these opinion makers are trying to write the narrative to fit their spin on the result.

Only Oakshott pointing out the inconvenient facts.

May can make whatever claims she likes. That doesnt alter the fact that the referendum gives the mandate for Brexit.

Eff all to do with Brexit. Or how hard it's going to be. Totally unrelated.

Immigrants who came to the UK before Blair threw open the floodgates. Came and became part of British society. Indians, Pakistanis, Early Poles, Germans, Swiss, French, Aussies whoever. They integrated, they changed their way of life to the British way of life. Adopted our cultures to a degree. Sure, they probably observed certain things from their home land. But by and large "became" Brits.

The post Blair years, there's been no inclination to encourage integration to the "British" way of life . (for fear of being called racist of course) So you get groups of Bulgarians hanging around with Bulgarians. Latvians with Latvians. etc. They bring their customs to the UK.

I think there's a lot of truth in this. Mass immigration is an issue - trickled in numbers allow integration. Vastly accelerated immigration with large groups do not assimilate, but rather stick to their own and that causes issues.

When I lived in abroad in my youth I had to speak the language and adapt to my host country's way of life - had I been part of a larger group, I probably would have adapted more slowly or not at all.

Campbell sort of talking sense...
