UK Politics Thread

I though paxman was actually poor. Too many personal digs at that weasel Miliband. The "North London geek" question was embarrassing. Prime time tv and waste 2 mins with that?? Not enough questions on policies... Dave had an easy ride. Stroll in the park. Miliband might come out better though, especially going second and being on the defensive... "You bet I'm tough enough" before collapsing in his chair at the end looking like he just went 10 with Tyson. Do me a favour eddy. Vladimir would eat you alive in a minute. As for standing up to the leader of the free world??? #cringe

I thought that "are you alright? " part at the end was a bit below the belt by Paxman. A bit self serving.

The Americans do it in a proper manner. Everything is by the book. Although they do have audiences at times.

Did he just call Obama "the leader of the free world"?

Only just tuning in right now. Milliband looks rough. Did Kay Burley do a number on him?

How do you shake someone's hand by accident?  I could understand you feeling some burd's arse by accident but shaking a lad's hand by accident .

You met Partridge or Coogan?

Correct Corkery, Miliband is terrible in a debate. Even Mylene Klaas proved that
