    Well then lambast the Buffoon for not turning up for interviews.

    And you keep repeating this despite being reminded several times that the last two inconspicuous leaders were also hammered by the press.

    But there’s nothing unusual in you having solid beliefs that are the complete opposite of any factual evidence.

    I'd love to see an interview between Andrew Neil and Brad Potts

    Agree that if Jezza had stood aside after losing to May the Labour party may be closer to power now than they currently are (I have bin slagged for saying this in the past)
    My choice would be Starmer but do like Gardener, also like Angela Rayner and Emily Thornberry. sadly they won't get a look in until after this election assuming Jezza looses

    We watched this & were appalled at the clear bias - there is supposed to be no political bias but it is happening too many times - I include QT as well - I have, in recent days, heard Jo Coburn & Andrew Marr say to a Conservative “I’m asking about YOUR policies, not Labour” but then allow them to continue - should tell them that the interview will end if they don’t!

    Facts like Millibands tablet of stone and Harpersons association with PIE. Yes of course donny lets all move along nothing to see here ! But there’s nothing unusual in you ignoring the factual evidence in the perpetuation of your solid beliefs.

    I dispair at how bad our politicians have become - especially the Tories under Dominic Cummings and his sidekick Boris
    Regardless of your opinions on Brexit there is no question it has been used to take the country down a path it may well take a long time to recover from

    That said the BBC has been complicit in a lot of this using it "impariality " when it suits but not when it doesnt.
    I'm not generally a fan of Frankie Boyle but he is spot on with this one and this applies to most of the BBC political coverage

    If you’re a political journalist who has regular contact with people in power, and your analysis is always aligned with prevailing orthodoxy, then you’re not really a journalist, you’re a courtier.

    So you’re seriously suggesting that Milliband was as toxic as Corbyn now?

    FFS you shouldn’t be operating heavy machinery on drugs that strong.

    Actually Donny I don’t operate machinery that often, I specialize in an activity critical in quarrying but quite sensitive in todays climate, you’d enjoy watching if you could get your head out of your arseoyle.

    BBC have shown their true colours in this election, and that colour is blue. We all saw their bias reporting during the miner's strike, years later nothing has changed. Staffed and run by the private school elite.

    If Andrew Neil told him Barnsley fans were going to listen he'd docs Boris. If he told him Hearts fans were listening they'd have to clear the schedule for 5 hours.

    My post about how EU law allows us to turn away European immigrants after a 3 month temporary stay if they are unable to provide for themselves and don't have a job. Ie we can turn away all benefit claiming European migrants and that it is UK government policy to allow them to remain rather than something which is forced upon us.
