I cannot help but get disturbingly annoyed whilst watching BBC's Question Time.

How ever much must Labour be 'bunging' to make sure they get the audience full of leftie fkwits that seem to ignore the fact that the world does not revolve around hand outs, free housing and instant evaporation of horrific debts mounted up by their pond life political party? Im assuming the inbreeding has shortened their memory spans too... wobble

Hypocritical bullst that keeps getting peddled out by the labour politicians would be quite amusing if it werent so fkin annoying - and what the fk was that scottish nutter sitting on the far right of the panel 'on' last night, a positively toxic nasty little man.

All in my opinion of course.

I don't know why everyone doesn't want the SKY tv version of it

I agree.

It's really shocking that people can hold different opinions to oneself. It shouldn't be allowed.

I'd like to know, if the audience is so balanced, how come applause often comes from specific sections? It's almost like they'd been segregated (e.g. front 25 rows for the lefties, the back row for everyone else).

I think that, at least in part, it depends where it's being held. Last night was Glasgow.

Its quite funny how it gets everyone on here so angry. One more episode and you'll be screaming like a banshee running round an empty house with a knife screaming 'they're out there!!!'

No neutral bystander can possibly believe that Question Time isn't heavily biased - both in audience selection and hosting.

In fact I almost fell off my chair last night when there was actually an apparent dig at Labour. Someone said now that the new Government had been in for a year wasn't it about time they stopped blaming Labour - how long will it take before they stop blaming the previous government? And the host piped up, about 13 years I expect!

It would be a better programme if some people in the audience held different opinions to the Labour party line though.

But im pretty sure Labour got quite a big hammering weekly during the dark days of 2007-2010 with Gordon Brown being such a figure of ridicule it was fish in a barrel sort of thing. In the Election debates even the one hosted by the BBC the Conservatives seemed to come out of it looking the best according to the 'opinion poll' of the audience.

Question Time may well be biased, but i think its just biased against whoever is in power at the time and it looks to beat the Government of the day and criticise it. I remember quite a few Labour MP's getting a very rough ride both from panelists and the audience during the end of Labour's stay in Government but i dont watch QT religiously so i may be mistaken.

I do recall one of the big Union leaders in 2009 i think go on there to say the Government was incompetant, awful and Gordon Brown is a pathetically terrible Prime Minister. He went on there again this year to say he was wrong as this lot are even worse. Flippy floppy.

When the public was angered by recession and job cuts, Labour got a beating on QT, now the public is angered by funding cuts, Tories and Lib Dems get a beating on QT. I think its just set up to slam the Government with what they feel the public want to hear.

No Tory bystander can possibly accept that the Tories are very poor on QT, because they are rather 2nd rate types.

Point is, the Tories are as useless as the crap pouring from Liam Fox's ahole. They are getting their chance, and blowing it/themselves bigstyle.

Obviously not watching the same program!

A lot of the bias is really nasty - I mean in terms of politically correct thought control - where the whole audience turns on 1 panellist or 'rogue' audience member who dares speak common sense/truth.

I think the point is they are less crap than Labour - we'd be in a very much worse place by now if Labour had got another term.

All the public sector workers who've now lost their jobs as a result of the election would beg to differ. It depends on who you are as to if it wouldve been better or worse, people who are losing out now due to the cuts will obviously feel it wouldve been better with Labour but Labour themselves had admitted a requirement to make cuts so surely some of the same things wouldve been cut even under them? Who knows.

What do you mean by 'ganging up' on 1 person who talks sense? I dont watch QT much anymore but it'd be nice to hear of an example. What did someone say that the audience took so much offence to?
