What a bunch of tossers. The only definite thing to come out of that debate is that Rory Stewart is in the wrong party. He was a member of the Labour Party in his Youth.....Agent Stewart

Craftily trying to make an argument out of nothing I see. The actual phrase was " An actual Englishman, who is proud of the UK" and to quote just part of it is daft

Who the f*** is this presenter? Emily something or other. I gave up watching after 10 minutes due to her constant interruptions and not allowing anyone to finish what they were saying

THe Blue party are really fragile right now. It beats me how they allowed their leadership competition to be televised especially with that shower of losers. It’s not like the public get to vote on it anyway. Agree. What a weak state of affairs. Basically begging for the job to people who can't give it to them anyway. Then again, left to their own devices they picked May last time. Shows how out of touch they all are that they're reduced to this as they have no way of gauging public support otherwise.

The Pratt on sky was as bad at the last GE. It's as if someone has told them that not letting the candidates speak and getting in as many of their own digs as possible is the way to do it.

There were 5 candidates who had to deal with quite a few questions in an hour and Emily Maitlis couldn't allow each one to make a speech, hence the interruptions.I happen to believe that had the programme been an hour and a half like the one on Channel 4, it would have been better viewing. In terms of the candidates, I believe Rory Stewart admitted himself that his performance was "Lacklustre" adding that the format never suited him.

Just heard him on LBC I still don't understand his position on Brexit. He said there is no chance of the EU renegotiating and that Parliament is deadlocked. So why would calling a people assembly solve this? Suppose the assembly says we want a different deal well if he is right the EU won't negotiate? Or is he just a Remainer in sheep's clothing.

Sure, we could debate how 'genetically' English the panel of Conservative contenders are but I wasn't referring to that....and besides it's a moot point since anyone from the UK qualifies. What I was referring to was in making a counterpoint to Dan's general downbeat attitude towards the English ethnicity. I never realised it would make that big a deal.

Badger11 Like your good self, I cannot see how a 'People assembly' unties the Gordion Knot.

Look Dan, keep the self loathing to yourself. Personally, I'm looking forward to BJ on the world stage. An actual Englishman, who is proud of the UK. I may not agree with him on some things but you lot hate him......so it's going to be highly amusing. He’s not (a lot of Turkish and I think an Eastern block country blood going by ‘Who fonyou think you are’), but he lives and sounds like one so that’s good enough for me. God forbid having Corbyn and McDonnell running us when they want to dismantle England and Britain. Feck them.
