The mooch is great value. I wouldn’t want him in charge of making dinner but as a commentator he’s funny, mostly honest and interesting. A great catch for QT in light of the usual boring lineup.

He is doing the rounds to plug his book. He was on Talk Radio yesterday spreading his anti Trump narrative.

I think Scaramucci is on Brexitcast right after QT. Should be a lot more entertaining and illuminating,
Yeah it will be worth a listen.

And there absolutely no totty on QT this week, scandalous.

Some real idiots on tonight.

Scaramucci has just been sitting there bored out of his mind.

He’s said one short thing that contains more sense and direct relatability than the rest of them combined.

Lot of political apologism, opportunism and virtue signalling going on otherwise.

Although Brexitcast doesn’t seem to be on tonight...weird because they definitely spoke about Mooch last week...

Is it on radio only, I wonder?

Also, it’s “Newscast” now, right?

Irrespective of the content of the show, the entire panel tonight all speak in the same ghastly monotone.

It just sounds like 6 bumblebees in the same jam jar.

3 minutes till Spooks......

The clear labour voters in the zooms kind of discarded it /oh it’s history it’s changed already job done.

Now imagine if it was Tory party - labour voters would be screaming and frothing at the mouth (forever more)

Nope. I hear her words, but they appear to make no sense at all. I suspect that she's one of those that thinks she's much cleverer than she actually is.

What, you mean like the Tory supporters that have been frothing all day?

Frothing is just noise. It doesn’t achieve anything. That said, if you want to froth, froth, but don’t whinge because people who you think should froth aren’t doing. That’s dumb.

Interruptus isn't doing it as much as usual, it occurs to me. The only one I've properly listened to is Scaramucci.

I know what you mean, but I was sure it was Brexitcast last week, but *Cast seems t9 have gone for tonight at least.

Meanwhile Question Time seems to have changed into the Bonnie Greer Show. Labour have rather got away with it given their less than optimal day.

She wasn’t any better the last time she was on, just snowflakery commentary.

If your whole schtick is that you are lead by a higher moral purpose, and the other guys are corrupt and ruthless, it is rather noticeable if that commentary suddenly goes quiet.

If I ran a political party at the moment I would have long since ensured my spokespeople had tech that actually worked. Ridiculous.

Glad it’s not just me. Loves the sound of her own voice and despite telling others they are not listening or understanding her she doesn’t listen to anyone else.
