Poll: Poll: UK General Election 2017 - Mk II

[Tefal]

So you are basically saying having children blown up every few years is a price worth paying to keep getting oil?

Maybe not "worth" but certainly "cheaper" than the number that would die without it

 

[LOAM]

The audience are quite switched on though. That question about live debates vs managed and press propaganda is hard to answer without looking scared of close quarter debate.

Good clarification from Dimbleby... what is a bad deal indeed.

... not a very good answer.

 

[McBain]

Credit to Dimbleby that is without a doubt one of the worst ties i've ever seen.

 

[VincentHanna]

Her face looks like she's really angry but has been told to smile throughout.

 

[gettothechopper]

Dimblers got her talking in circles on that one

 

[Uther]

Some uncomfortable questions...

it isn't exactly a straight forward question to answer in terms of the brief soundbites expected on this sort of thing - a 'bad deal' could take different forms depending on what is pushed for by the EU and how much they're willing to accept UK demands - it isn't something she can easily quantify and say 'oh a bad deal would be a settlement of X amount' or that she could draw certain lines in the sand on certain issues publicly before even negotiating. She's given a general answer in terms of the EU members seeking to punish us but can't really go much further than that.

She's not coming over as a total derp but she's not saying anything new or convincing either

But she didn't give ANY examples... it was purely in terms of giving a good or a bad deal.... empty tbh.

Right now she has started talking about some specifics in terms of timing.

 

[Kenai]

. there are simpler explanations, such as the one she actually gave - wanting to increase her majority before Brexit negotiations

What difference would that have made? They all voted in agreement to the final deal not being voted through parliament, so what that parliament consisted of was completely irrelevant? Whether she had a majority of 1 or 100, she had the majority when she enacted A50 and that was all she needed, the election wasn't due until after Brexit would have happened and parliament had absolutely no power to influence the negotiations from that point onwards.

The election achieved nothing as far as Brexit is concerned, bar maybe another party getting the reigns to it.

I think she's just explained why in another answer to be fair.

 

[McBain]

Yeah that's the way mate, just keep asking for a vote until it goes the way you want.

He must have ties to the SNP.

 

[Silly Goose On The Loose]

Don't you think she looks tired?

 

[Jonny2284]

I didn't finish work until 8, only just walked in at quarter to and heard two answers that were the same answer she gave during the Paxman 'debate' completely parroted. Did I miss anything worthwhile prior to that?

 

[Uther]

She's been running for a week...

 

[Nitefly]

Mega Tash!!!!
