"Why do you want to take the right to have a zero hours contract away from me?"
"Why do you want one?"
"So I can organise my hours."

That's called a timetable, you negotiate that separately as part of a contract, which coincidentally, a zero hours contract doesn't tend to factor in.

 

[Fergie]

Absolutely ridiculous last 15-20min.

We deserve May.

 

[Auxiliary Bro]

Where did they find these young adults who hate good things happening to them?

 

[Dirtyshubb]

That was a shambles, Corbyn actually did fantastic but because of the horrible and fucking pointless questions it is gonna come across as terrible.

And may got to fucking sleepwalk her way with barely any challenge but Corbyn gets railroaded.

Fucking infuriating.

 

[Empty]

he finished well but he got absolutely destroyed by the nuclear stuff.

that's the stuff that will stay in the news till the sunday politics shows

 

[Real Hero]

Does she hate herself? Why do poeple hate policies that are good for themselves?

We would rather vote to fuck over someone than help ourselves

 

[Faddy]

I have already forgotten Theresa May's bit.

 

[Audioboxer]

Get em telt. LET'S NUKE THE FUCKING WORLD!

 

[Sumio Mondo]

I love how the British public are suddenly experts in international terror and nuclear weaponry whenever Corbyn's around.

But would you, hypothetically press the red button in such a scenario? We must know, for the fourth time!

 

[OverBlood 3]

These people have obviously never played any MGS games. Nukes are bad.

That kid has clearly never worked a job in his life, zero hours or not

 

[PJV3]

People already know he isn't going to nuke anything, I'm hopeful it won't change much.

 

[Rodelero]

When Theresa May wins, it's because of people just like that series of uncouth, beligerant and arrogant old men asking stupid questions about the IRA and Trident. God I hate this country.

 

[Faddy]

I guess since we seem gung-ho with this Brexit self harm we just want to see the rest of the world burn.

 

[Chinner]

Good news is that they will die one day.

 

[StayDead]

Get em telt. LET'S NUKE THE FUCKING WORLD!

He's saying we talk before they even get to the point of attacking. These ignorant people are so stupid.

If one person pushes the red button we're all dead anyway. Firing back isn't going to do anything. FIRING FIRST is especially not going to do anything, because they'll just fire back.

Everyone will die the second someone launches a nuke.

 

[GrizzleBoy]

BBC directly after Corbyn finished talking, dives straight into anti-Semitism and nukes.

Welp, back to business as usual.

 

[Psychotext]

You mean... the most successful way we've had of ending conflict in the last 50 or so years?

 

[Rodelero]

Good news is that they will die one day.

They'll be replaced by the idiots in our generation who think their age affords them wisdom despite their lack of intelligence and education.

 

[Fergie]

Once a nuke is launched that's it.

 

[Zaph]

When Theresa May wins, it's because of people just like that series of uncouth, beligerant and arrogant old men asking stupid questions about the IRA and Trident. God I hate this country.

Yup, we reap what we sow

 

[Deleted member 231381]

That was a car crash. Election over.

And young people who love zero hour contracts and hate there being no tuition fees at uni, apparently. This country is downright bizarre.

 

[holygeesus]

If you do anything in the next week or so for God's sake urge any young person you can to vote.

 

[Maztorre]

Half of this audience is a shining example of what happens when a country has unresolved delusions and national myths that have gone unchallenged. Decrying the IRA while demanding a nuclear strike.

 

[D4Danger]

name one thing that has ever been solved by talking. you can't.

 

[Pinkuss]

Get em telt. LET'S NUKE THE FUCKING WORLD!

Fucking hell. Because the wars in recent years have achieved so much. Syria isn't black and white, we arm some people we bomb others (deja vu). Or there's Libya which is apparently a disaster now.

You could also argue one of the biggest terrorist threats (I think, I was young), the IRA situation was solved via talking.

 

[GrizzleBoy]

I have already forgotten Theresa May's bit.

Its because she literally said nothing of substance.

I had to check myself because that feels like hyperbole, but she had basically nothing of actual substance to say.....

 

[jm89]

These retards are the reason i want us to suffer when we exit the eu.

 

[Ushojax]

That was a shambles, Corbyn actually did fantastic but because of the horrible and fucking pointless questions it is gonna come across as terrible.

Fucking infuriating.

Corbyn can only blame himself. Would anyone get upset if he did the politically sensible thing and said "I'd launch a nuke if it was absolutely necessary"?

 

[Dirtyshubb]

How the fuck did we as a country turn so quickly to say "you need to kill millions of people, mostly innocent and say it right now or your a terrible leader"?

 

[Newline]

Infuriating. If you could condense why young people don't get involved in politics into one small tv segment it would be the moment when a bunch of old white men vilify a potential prime minister for not wanting to nuke millions of people. I can't fathom that, I just can't wrap my head around it.

 

[Faddy]

That was a car crash. Election over.

I think people at home saw the delusion going on in that audience...

Wait Brexit happened, people really are this dumb

 

[JonathanEx]

Hahah, over on C4 they started The Last Leg with a gag where one of the presenters couldn't be bothered to turn up so started the show with an Amber Rudd lookalike

 

[Huw_Dawson]

He's saying we talk before they even get to the point of attacking. These ignorant people are so stupid.

That isn't how nuclear defence policy works.

If you are unwilling to nuke your opponent as a first strike, then they can continuously threaten your position with nuclear strikes.

You end up in a permanent state of brinkmanship.

You have to be willing to deploy a nuclear attack. You have to be clear on when you would do it.

 

[Audioboxer]

That kid has clearly never worked a job in his life, zero hours or not

You mean the slick looking lad in his Ralph Lauren jumper isn't on a zero hours contract at Sports Direct?

 

[Royal_Phalanx]

It was a good run, but it ended today. So many people in this country are just so jingoistic and stupid. Give them a copy of the Fallout games, they need to play them

 

[Uzzy]

That was a car crash. Election over.

Have faith Crab. With luck, there's more people like that woman who slammed the audience for wanting to kill millions, than the others who wanted to kill millions.

 

[Real Hero]

I was starting to feel slightly hopeful and that was a kick in the balls. He should have just said he would kill as.many children with nukes as possible

 

[PJV3]

That was a car crash. Election over.

This stuff has been constantly fired at Corbyn, why would it suddenly matter now?

 

[TomWaitsForNoMan]

Corbyn can only blame himself. Would anyone get upset if he did the politically sensible thing and said "I'd launch a nuke if it was absolutely necessary"?

He should have promised to murder millions of people because it's politically expedient? Should he have promised to kick the foreigners out too if that was a vote winner?

Would you shoot an innocent if you had to save the world?

 

[PKrockin]

Watching Sky News recap of the debate, that old man was really suggesting pre-emptively nuking North Korea? wtf?

 

[Huw_Dawson]

Would you shoot a small child if you had to save the world?

Yes.

Government will always do awful things. Those involved in defending that government are modern day sin eaters.

The crux of the matter: to defend the nation you have to be willing to attack.

 

[Freewheelin']

Her poll numbers are going up and his are dropping after that. He answered questions. She didn't. He came with figures. She didn't. He didn't commit to bombing people. She wins.

Fucking hell. Truly pessimistic.

 

[Meadows]

Corbyn should have had the balls to end trident if he didn't want this scrutiny.

Just say we will be the 2nd developed economy to unilaterally disarm for a better world. That's a more defensible position than paying for it and then ruling out using it.

And before anyone says rah right wing Labour MPs wouldn't back it, that's a fundamental problem with his leadership skills and is why I wouldn't vote for him.

china and india both have no first strike policies. do you think they are wasting their money on nukes as no-one thinks they will attack?

This is why I've accepted that, ultimately, we need Brexit. This toxic idea of a Great Britain that's long gone needs to be shattered, it's ruining our nation. We need humility and that'll only come at the cost of pain.

Weirdly enough some nuclear states have no-first-use policies and no-one's nuked them yet

china and india both have no first strike policies. do you think they are wasting their money on nukes as no-one thinks they will attack?

No he just has no idea what he's talking about, as usual

How many old white men got to speech tonight. Old racist are stifling British politics
