exile Posted October 21, 2021 Author Share Posted October 21, 2021 From Glasgow. Will they pack the audience with unionists and brexiteers to get the proportion up to (UK) national average? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exile Posted October 21, 2021 Author Share Posted October 21, 2021 Wasn't the greatest debate, the first question seemed to be asking if the UK Govt should be putting in COVID measures that already apply in Scotland (but without making that clear), and the last question was about MP security, the kind of question everyone agrees on. Only on the carbon capture issue, a punter managed to deliver some stick in the direction of Andrew Bowie. There was a fair bit of stick for the City Council. Assuming the audience was fair in the first place. 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I finally saw this guy who seems as some sort of talisman or enfant terrible - but was left feeling what was all the fuss about. He seemed to just make a series of not particularly original generalisations. What struck me more was the conviction with which he asserted them, maybe that appeals to people, as if he has the answers. But the panel got back at him.

I occasionally watch the start but usually given up after the first question. Maybe tonight fighting will break out. It really is a pale imitation of the days when they had decent chairmen. Fiona Bruce is pretty hopeless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaid Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 (edited) So that’s two pro-Indy, two anti and one don’t know. A quick Google shows that Iain Anderson was recently appointed as the “LGBT Business Champion” by the UKG so that should raise red flags - not the LGBT part but the UKG part. Màiri McAllan is “one to watch” so it’ll be interesting to see how she fares. Edited January 20, 2022 by aaid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So predictable what will happen so think I will give it a miss. Questions cherry-picked with an anti-independence stance probably on a ratio of about three or four to one. Pro-independence guests having their answers cut short unlike the yoon guests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
