I cant believe Fiona Bruce just said that.

"Are you seriously suggesting making Halifax wonderful city as it is Leeds, Bradford as rich a London"

Bloody hell god forbid that ever happened Fiona we wouldn't want anyone striving to be better off would we.

There's a blueberry in the audience, it's bizarre.

Wasn't Richard Walker the guy who, during the lasagne horsemeat thing said it could be a lot worse as they weren't testing for hedgehog or badger?

I don't think people understand the money-go-round; cutting income tax puts money back in the economy and is recouped from other taxes elsewhere, it's why they don't fix the roads, it forces motorists to pay for car repairs and spend money they don't have, for things they shouldn't have to pay for, to pay the salaries of the garages so those garage employees can pay tax.

Secondly, Amazon. This boils my piss. I bought some shoes off Amazon a few weeks ago - I paid Amazon £120 but it was a company in London that sent them. Amazon took their cut, say 15% meaning I paid Amazon £120, Amazon then pay shoe shop £102.

Shoe shop then have to pay taxes on the £102, but amazon will only pay tax on the £18 cut they took. If it's 20%, that's why Amazon are paying £3.60 tax on sales of £120.

For some reason, folk eem to think Amazon should be paying £24 tax on my shoe order, despite Amazons cut only being £18.

I've never heard any politician actually stop and explain the money-go-round. They just jump around their political monolith, hurling faeces at each other.

Oh god, a brexit question. "we didn't know what we were voting for". I certainly did. so fk off.

Truss - “keeping no deal on the table will help us get a good deal.”

She knows it is total nonsense but knows it keeps believers believing.

So dishonest.

Did all that false ferries bluffing not happen to convince the EU we were serious about no deal in March? Nobody learn anything from that?

She's a bit short of original material, period.

WOman in green..best speaker of the night...maybe best speaker of the year....the MPs look like tts for the most part, jeering, cheering, carrying on...makes one embarrassed that these are elected officials. It's like some Swiftian/Pratchett/Python mosnter mash-up
