Cringeworthy from Ferrari who thinks he's still running a phone in.
Running rings around Healey and the screamer Sonia from the Guardian.

I can understand Sonia being so upset when Labour are walking away from a 2nd referendum laugh
What's wrong with a referendum? You can't undermine democracy with democracy.

Is it a special kids edition tonight or something?

Has Fiona sneaked her nephew in and is keeping it in the family?!

I think you obviously need counselling. Bloody snowflake.

Me neither. Expect another 20 point gain for Labour when the election is eventually called. Thank fook this is the last Tory government. Just a matter of time.
I don't see it.

May practically screamed "don't vote for us" at the last election and they *still* beat Labour (yes yes. She lost her majority. She also won the biggest vote share since '97. Boundaries are a bh, as are the margins with the topics we have at play right now).

If Corbyn changes his front bench to be something that doesn't look like it's auditioning for the next Dumb and Dumber sequel, and ditches some of his numerically dyslexic fiscal policies he might have more of a chance.

But even with the screw up that is the Tory party, I don't see a Labour majority yet.

5 polls for Tory, 5 for Labour, one tie:

Any competent opposition would be absolutely miles ahead with the mess May is making of...well pretty much everything. And yet they aren't.

At last. A car based question on the programme.

Next week. Should the NSL be lowered? smile

When you were typing out your (yet another) chosen username, did your finger slip on the ‘e’, ‘y’ and ‘s’ by accident?

And how does ignoring the result of a referendum fit with that ?

You probably didn't last time either...

If we've learnt one thing since that election, it's that there's a serious dearth of any talent within the Tory party which makes a Labour government all but a given. Name one Tory MP who is capable of running a successful election campaign.

Bruce addresses the opinion poll fiasco from last week in two sentences. Job jobbed.

Can we keep her?
Hold on. So Labour are ahead in the polls? laughlaughlaugh

Tories look finished.
No second referendum, no Corbyn and Abbott in government and Brexit delivered - you're in for a disappointing 2019

Have you never been asked if you're sure about something? That's not ignoring, it's asking for further validation. Perfectly normal behaviour.

They don’t need anyone capable - they’d still beat Labour as they did last time.
Which goes to show just how poor and unelectable Corbyn really is.

Good luck with that. Looks increasingly likely now we wont leave without a deal. Parliament are taking back control and wont let it happen. A50 will be extended no doubt beyond 2019.

"still beat Labour like they did last time". So the Conservatives will completely fail to gain enough seats for a majority to govern again? I completely agree with you. The Tories are torn apart and in much greater chaos than Labour have been under Corbyn. Looks like we'll finally see the back of them at the next election.

Who’s the hard brexiteer guy getting an absolute battering on this week? He’s getting absolutely rinsed, he’s said I haven’t got the answer to that about 3 times in the last 5 minutes.

Haha. Andrew Neil can be alright. He just tore a new back passage in the WTO hard Brexiter bloke. Showed him up for not knowing what he was talking about. Played.

Delingpole is a mess.

Why do most of the guests on the show appear not to have rehearsed their arguments before going on?
