Antlion Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 The importance of the EU has shot up dramatically within the last couple of years. There is a migrant crisis, which is being exacerbated as a result of EU laws and we're having a referendum on EU membership within a year or two. Also, QT isn't meant to be "focused" on any specific area. Other than the most pressing subjects that week. And there are plenty of elected MPs on both sides of the debate who could discuss the issue without pushing UKIP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerwickMad Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 They aren't 'pushing UKIP'. They make fools of themselves most of the time anyway so I'm not sure why you're so bothered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~~~ Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 The BBC have been helping promote UKIP for years now. Doesn't matter if you think they're making a fool of themselves or not, they should never have been given the amount of free promotion from the BBC. If you didn't know better, you'd have assumed for years now UKIP are 1 of the main political parties in the UK, when the reality is very different. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~~~ Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 It's not paranoia at all. For the minority party UKIP have had s ridiculously amount of exposure of the BBC for years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob the tank Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I was on a day off midweek, a fortnight ago, and our Nigel was on the BBC from morning to night. Only programme he wasn't on was Family Guy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a serious debate to be had about the EU I reckon. The Punch and Judy-style of Farage and his coterie of BBC luvvies don't really engage with it when all they do is talk about migrants (to either cheers or boos). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antlion Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I was on a day off midweek, a fortnight ago, and our Nigel was on the BBC from morning to night. Only programme he wasn't on was Family Guy He has his own dressing room and makeup girl. If UKIP ever had pretensions of being a serious party, they were lost when Nige performed his comedy "I'm a man of m'word, I'm quitting" followed a week later by, "They won't let me go". Had any other farce of a political party ever been taken so seriously by the BBC? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Lambies Doos Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 And how we cheered when she got the boot in the pie at the GE Utterly humiliated. Cried salty tears in disbelief. Disgusting trougher imo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antlion Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Utterly humiliated. Cried salty tears in disbelief. Disgusting trougher imo It was up against some really stiff competition, but seeing that little gremlin lose her seat and march off between two male attendants, unable to draw together enough dignity and decorum to even make a valedictory speech, was my moment of the night. She fought a dirty campaign full of lies and smears and then genuinely seemed unable to comprehend how it didn't lead her to victory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WullieBroonIsGod Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Thursday night's show has been moved to London in light of the Paris attacks. Expect a lot of immigration and muslim bashing. Par for the course for QT 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
