This fucking bug-eyed goon asking the nuclear war question seriously needs to die instantly1

Look at his bug eyes! Giant fly swat. Gone.3

He's taken the long way around, but there's no question he hasn't ultimately given an answer to. I mean, whether in reality he won't make a deal with the SNP is to be revealed...DamoNorthStand said:0 -

Best fucking question of the night0

Well done on the girl who kept a bit of perspective. Dropping a nuclear weapon is killing millions of innocent people.
The answer on the issue was satisfactory to me. No first use, kept it as a deterrent. The man is principled. I'm sure he feels that if he admitted he would use it, he's already lost.7 -
I can't fucking believe it. Did the Labour Party think the Nuclear question would not come up? He should have had a word perfect and voter friendly answer prepared and ready irrespective of whether he approved it. He should not have been allowed to lead the Labour Party into an election if he could not change his mind on this issue.1

But yeah, the responses he gave weren't voter friendly. Frustratingly. I can't wait for the day when attitudes change.0

Jezza not so cool when the audience isn't massively biased. BBC, actually managed to do that for once it seems.5

Jezza not so cool when the audience is full of actual lizard-people, sure0

Looking forward to the negotiations with IS0

I was expecting more from Corbyn tonight. First one I have watched all the way through - and i can imagine Hugh Grant being Prime Minister more off the back of his Love Actually performance.
I know we all vote on policies - but he isn't a Prime Minister. Whether the voters force him into the role remains to be seen.
But still maintain David Milliband gets the job a few years ago and we have a totally different situation.0 - Sponsored links:

Missed the Theresa May part but I must say Corbyn at least believes in what he says which makes a change for politics. In my opinion if he didn't have himself surrounded with people like Abbott and McDonnell people would be much more inclined to vote for him.
He's thrown a bit of a wobbly on the nuclear weapons questions and as someone said earlier he answers every question in a vague way by expanding the answer in to other things, as I type this he's completely dodged the blokes questions about business' moving abroad (this is one of my big worries)1 -
Corporation tax at 26% still lower than the other G7 countries.

And if you think businesses are seriously going to go to Outer Mongolia just for a better tax rate, you're wrong.Leuth said:

Blame the unions for that one. I liked David Milliband but he got screwed by his brother who was backed by the unions..........just like Corbyn.DamoNorthStand said:I was expecting more from Corbyn tonight.

This isn't an election about other countries. This is about us. The average small / medium business isn't going to up and move to another country.Leuth said:

I sound like my dear mum used to sound here - "I don't care what your friends get away with - I care about you"
I understand what she meant now!1 -
Apparently Corbyn had the chance to go to university with his two Es at A Level...
To quote Alan Partridge, "...such a waste."3 -
He said that as well. Eventually. When there's an easy answer I wish he'd just say it, then expand. I like that Corbyn is thoughtful and nuanced, and gives reasoned answers rather than clichés and soundbites (like May) but he did waffle a fair bit tonight.Leuth said:
