Politicians appearances on TV

[anonymous-user]

We have a Question Time thread that merges quite well in discussion about this week the programme that follows.
I thought it would be a good idea to have a regular thread where we could highlight upcoming appearances by politicians on TV away from just question time.



On BBC 1 at 9am his coming Sunday Andrew Marr has Angela Rayner and Damien Hinds
Over on ITV an hour later Robert Peston has Emily Thornberry, Ruth Davidson, Jess Phillips and Lord Willets

What about radio?

Man of the people Jacob Rees-Mogg will be on LBC tomorrow from 10am.

Will it be in Latin?

I sometimes wonder if Rees-Mogg is a corpse.

He's undead. It's the only explanation for his direct transplant from the first half of the 19th century.

I keep watching old Basil Rathbone Sherlock Holmes films to see if he appears in the background - as an undertaker - or a body.

As far as I know Farage is still a UK MEP.

Ken Clarke is up there in a party with lots of MP's / MEP's to chose from.

Any comment on his policies or proposals ?

I'm really not a fan of the license fee, but if the BBC piss of Adonis just once a year I will pay it very willingly. The guy is a dick.

Edited to add - where did the BBC call the EU a corpse? And in what context?

(Yes, Russia Today, Putin's pet broadcaster)

The tweet in question...
https://twitter.com/Andrew_Adonis/status/963862521...
...refers to this article...
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-43055890
...which doesn't include the word "corpse" anywhere, so it would appear to have been edited. But the header seems to be a world away from what's implied...

...and that might be because...

So, basically, he's complaining Douglas Carswell made an anti-EU comment. Hold the front page.

Andrew Neil vs Steve Baker MP.

Me too. Emily Thornberry and Jess Phillips in the same studio? The IQ vacuum will be a danger to anyone nearby.

Hopeless from Andrew Neil. He is trying to grill one politician for what has been said by others. Pointless approach.

Liam Fox and Keith Stamer

Meanwhile flip over afterwards to catch Peston mangling spoken English and having as his guests:
Andrea Leadsom and Tom "have I stlll got a job" Watson plus DUP MP Nigel " Arlenes more man than me" Dodds
