He kiiiiind of dodged that "what do people expect of Brexit?" question.

Edit: LOL, was that even in a question?

 

[Faddy]

Did someone give this audience some tranqulisers before the show?

 

[Jezbollah]

Hahaha what a dick head.

Yep - but he got an answer. No deals.

 

[Beefy]

He's nearly as bloody awful as May.

No one is even near how bad May is. Nuttel can at least say different sentences.

 

[Pyroclastic]

i'm not corbyn's biggest fan but it's nice to hear someone not dance in circles around every question

that was a bit tetchy then though, that chap didn't like his demeanour at all then lol

 

[f0rk]

Here we go again, tariff free access but EU won't be doing that without freedom of movement. It would completely undermine the EU.

He ducks the association somehow by not calling it single market access

 

[TrueBlue]

Bit aggressive there regarding the SNP question haha

 

[kmag]

Here we go again, tariff free access but EU won't be doing that without freedom of movement. It would completely undermine the EU.

Everyone knows it, no one is willing to actually say it. The body politic in this country keeps pretending there's some ace card in their hand and that somehow the whole thing is a game of go fish.

Yeah, both Labour and Conservatives seem to believe they will get this without freedom of movement. Nobody seems to call them out on it.

 

[Audioboxer]

We want a majority to fight the Tories, fuck off SNP. I mean, it's expected, but it's the reason Scotland will never manage to be relevant to the UK as is.

Honestly she sounded callous but more competent than usual. She can't fake empathy, Cameron could. I don't think this was particularly good for her. The most powerful parts where the partially sighted girl and she absolutely fucking flubbed that.

I think Cameron probably had empathy given what happened to his own child.

 

[excowboy]

He's well pumped up!

 

[RangerX]

Jesus this audience don't know how to ask a clear and concise question.

 

[kmag]

You'd think. Didn't stop him though did it.

 

[Lego Boss]

You'd think. Didn't stop him though did it.

Sad but true.

 

[TomWaitsForNoMan]

I think Cameron probably had empathy given what happened to his own child.

And yet he still did what he did. So either he didn't actually care, or he didn't care as long as it was happening to other people.

 

[deadduck]

Actually answered each question so far with confidence.

 

[Dirtyshubb]

Fantastic answer on that business question.

 

[Auctopus]

Jesus this audience don't know how to ask a clear and concise question.

Exactly what I was thinking :/

It means the answers have to be vaguer or means they have to fall back on a soundbite.

 

[Beefy]

And yet he still did what he did. So either he didn't actually care, or he didn't care as long as it was happening to other people.

He was a con man, way better at talking shit then May

 

[Tregard]

🤔

 

[kmag]

Corbyn is better at this than May, because he manages to sound sincere. He still walks himself into walls unnecessarily.

 

[Empty]

corbyn's positioning on brexit is quite fascinating and clever. he has placed himself just slightly to the left of may to keep progressives on side with guaranteeing eu nationals and avoiding low-tax etc, but functionally his position is the same as may's so he can avoid alienating the electorate nearly fully behind accepting brexit now even if it is nonsense


the lib dems can gain zero traction on throwing a wrench in this however as corbyn's ambitious manifesto is undeniable a lot more progressive than theirs overall, and also they have been completely incompetent.

 

[Little Old Man]

Just started on the Corbyn part. Never thought a few months back that he would ever sound so 'Prime Ministerial'.

 

[jelly]

Good answers so far.

 

[Fernando Fernandez]

The Boy is doing well.

 

[RangerX]

I think Jezza is knocking it out if the park here.

 

[Auctopus]

Yikes, I think he duked that last question a little. Especially after the great first answer.

 

[Freewheelin']

He's been great but the pessimist in me is saying it doesn't matter. May did her job.

 

[Jezbollah]

Yikes, I think he duked that last question a little. Especially after the great first answer.

I don't think he gave an answer that a business owner could take substance from. He kept to the popular message..

 

[Facism]

Great waste of a question there, mate.

 

[Juicy Bob]

I want to live in Corbyns Britain.

 

[TrueBlue]

Yikes, I think he duked that last question a little. Especially after the great first answer.

Hmm, he went off on a bit of a tangent then.

It wasn't long ago that I would have said the Tories had a 52% strategy, the Lib Dems a 48% strategy and Labour a 0% strategy. It's beginning to appear that I'd mislead myself.

 

[Pyroclastic]

that fucking note

can no one take some irony

 

[chromatic9]

He's called it tariff free access to the single market multiple times in past weeks.

I'll just put it down to a fanciful policy ploy for now.

 

[Audioboxer]

Great waste of a question there, mate.

Trying to throw the bantz on national TV. Nah bro, leave that for Twitter and forums.

Corbyn is nuking May.

 

[Auctopus]

That follow-up question proved out right that the questioner hasn't read the manifesto. What a surprise.

 

[f0rk]

The main problem I have with the Labour manifesto is how the amount they're hoping to raise from corporation tax etc is hugely reliant on the corporations sticking around post Brexit.

 

[Condom]

OMG

 

[Moosichu]

That note was a result of a global financial crisis, not domestic Labour policy.

 

[Chinner]

That was challenging question.

 

[Fergie]

Can't believe he brought up that no money memo. Fucking hell.

 

[Empty]

corbyn was a bit flustered at the end of that anti-semitism question tbh

 

[Beefy]

Ooh this is a good question

 

[Jezbollah]

Ooh this is a good question

It is.

 

[Condom]

Stop reading Daily Mail miss

 

[Auctopus]

corbyn was a bit flustered at the end of that anti-semitism question tbh

It's always going to be a tough question. Especially when it was offered in such a sarcastic manner.

They should've booted Livingstone when they had the chance, though. It'll haunt him.

 

[CD93]

Can't believe he brought up that no money memo. Fucking hell.

I think Corbyn needs to play up the anti-establishment role. Remind people that he is not of the Labour Party that left power in 2010.

 

[Uzzy]

Livingstone should have been thrown out, full stop. Made the Labour Party look bad that he wasn't, or hasn't been yet.
