His refusal to offer a position on Iraq and his feeble attempts to get around it were a disgrace. The audience were shocked at his ineptitude.

As for Ricketts, what a lightweight he is. He'll go far in the Tories.

Spot on Matt. If I was Welsh I would be acutely embarrassed to have this prat speaking on behalf of my country.

Still, no other reason to suggest that QT hasn't lost credibility.

How many minutes was it before someone said the word "Iraq" this week?

Matt does have Welsh blood,which explains why he felt so passionately about Mr Morgan's performance last night (apart from the fact he came over like a real pratt!)

Also explains his distaste for the sheep like mentality that is ever-increasing in Britain today! :wink:

There was an article in 'The 'Times' about this very subject, the dumbing down of the Beeb's 'Question Time', a few months ago. It seems that many politicians are extremely reluctant to appear because they fear humiliation from difficult questions or hostility from the audience. Consequently the programme makers have to resort to asking Z list celebrities to appear.

To which I say "Boo Hoo, Boo Hoo, Boo Bloody Hoo !" :cry: :cry: :cry: :roll: If politicians are too chicken to appear before a live audience, how come they have enough bottle to pontificate away to the British public from a nice TV studio with a nice safe tame questioner ? And what about reconecting voters to politicians ?

So if some Z list nobody appears, where the f*** are our MEPs :?:
