Peppino Impastato Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) Genuine question.Would the Swastika not win the "most blood soaked flag" Top Trumps ?? 30 million in India alone. They don't teach these things in British schools. See someone mentioned China excellent shout it's possible but that flag relatively young. It's possible who knows it's a throwaway statement the point is a hell of a lot of blood. see Edited March 17, 2016 by Peppino Impastato 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Aye the more i think about it the more unsure i am.Joe Stalin might give the hammer and sickle a claim too. Genghis Khan was a bit naughty too, maybe 40 million. Not sure if he had a special blood soaked fleg though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antlion Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 You quote with crying laughter, hollow patronisation of something you hate about Scotland. The law of Animals, destroy what you don't understand. I'm laughing at you. You are a joke. "Destroy", though. 😂😂😂 My god, you're like a Poundland Ian Paisley! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SNP really do have to stop Tasmina going on these types of forum. She is terrible viewing, surely there are better representatives than her and Nicholson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Sheppard and my own MP Philippa Whitford are both streets ahead of Tasmina and Nicholson at public speaking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always feels like an own goal when the SNP put up diddies like the above. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'mnnot sure they do, I think you have to be invited, which is probably why the bbc repeatedly invite one of the SNP's weakestspeakers Iinstead of mhairi black. Has sh ever been on Btw? Youngest MPfor aeons , great speaker and lgbt you'dtthink qt would be battering her door down. Perhaps because she's so bloody good I the reason they haven't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 The BBC make a request to the parties who then put up a representative. I vaguely remember a couple of years ago an episode with a few big hitters, except for the Conservatives who had a no-mark backbencher because the party didn't offer anyone up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They ask the parties for a representative. Sometimes they will specifically request a government or shadow minister/front-bencher. The parties nominate someone and the programme either accepts or rejects them, usually the former.

The Question Time producers often ignore the parties' nominations and invite who they like. Do you honestly think that Tory HQ put forward Jacob Rees-Mogg, a well known Cameron critic? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ad Lib Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) The Question Time producers often ignore the parties' nominations and invite who they like. Do you honestly think that Tory HQ put forward Jacob Rees-Mogg, a well known Cameron critic? It depends on whether they are looking for a front-bencher or not. Obviously they sometimes invite people not on a party's "preferred" list but it's typically when they've decided not to ask for a front-bencher. In the case of smaller parties they almost always ask for someone who is a spokesman or shadow. The reason, for example, that Anna Soubry is almost always on Question Time, is because she's one of the willing volunteers that Conservative HQ put forward as a regular.

The Master Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 The general rule with Question Time is that if it's a party spokesperson, they've been put up by the party. If they're not a party spokesperson, then they might still have been put up by the party but it's equally likely they've been invited after the BBC turned down the party's choice. Tasmina Ahmed-Sheikh is Trade and Industry spokesperson for the SNP in Westminster, so will have been put up by the party. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
