QUESTION TIME, LIVE IN RUNNING, not much of a panel, ............

I took one look at the panel and decided not to watch. However the golf is spoiling the adverts at the mo so i might tune in..

Aaa Haa partridge must be in audience

Armando Iannucci disappointing me there as I previously thought he was intelligent, and he seems to not understand the difference between evasion and avoidance of tax, which is pretty elementary stuff.

yes, if we really are all in this together it would be nice to see some of these high profile tax dodgers...........

Is it me or does Ed Davey remind me of Tim Vine?

..... bought to court.

Def a panel of lightweights, the question is does any televised programme with a limited time slot, and pre chosen questions/audience have any validity whatsoever. No question has enough time to be scrutinised, apart from a party viewpoint. and who chooses the "impartial's"   not you or me. They all have an agenda, so how do you solve any problem, in this media driven, (faceless BBC employees) world

Chris Bryant is okay.

CMAT is in the audience.....the only way he can get on chit chat.

Anyone who puts money in an ISA or a private pension or delays selling something to reduce CGT is "avoiding" tax, it's perfectly legal and normal an expected. You are quite entitled to do it, it's your right.

Just Checking • small beer. look at the greater picture. If yo can.

Just checking, you have a parochial argument which just doesn't wash. get real FFS.

Not appeasing ???

Pootin went in with a 4 inch wanger and walked out like John Holmes..

benefit fraud = £1.1 bn

tax gap by avoid and evade anything £34 bn - £119 bn.   

UKIP gal pretty posh

is turkey in eu ???  not very safe out there imo.

GLASGOWCALLING, unfortunately you are trying to educate pork. Can't be done.

I'm not saying that people DON'T do "dodgey" things what I'm on about is this, and this is typical of things today, is just another idiotic populist witchhunt. The Tory guy for example lived in Switzerland for a few years, this was not some account he opened without having lived there, and has apparently put money for his kids in tax efficient funds. That weasel Miliband smeared him as dodgey and basically implying evasion. What precisely has Miliband specified that he's done wrong? The Tory probably realises now after advice that while he HAS been smeared, technically he has, like most people, done things that mean he has "avoided tax" so can't sue the populist t*sser Miliband, even though we all know what Miliband was actually doing.

This is nothing to do with big corporations avoiding Tax, which is of course a real issue, but the fact this is just a political thing Miliband is doing to try and get at the Tories by personal smears using parliamentary privilege and peoples ignorance on the matter.

shes actually coming across quite well imo.  capt.

Sorry for aiming that about 10 years above your reading level boxing the fox, I'll re-write it at a Mirror level if you have trouble with it..

Edukated like me Glas

Just Checking, I apologise, your, valid, points, are incisive. My point about this type of programme still hold. We are not at "loggerheads" about discussion per se, but this particular medium. ?

Iannucci is less funny than I expected. WHERE'S THE JOKES!

Maybe I missread your "GLASGOWCALLING, unfortunately you are trying to educate pork. Can't be done" as being direct at me?

directED :)

are the 2 russians with the polonium siked tea on an arrest warrant ??

Putin is imho a dangerous man.
It is a bit of a worry as their economy is massively dependent on oil, that's fallen through the floor but not before they'd spent a lot of money upgrading their armed forces that 15 years ago were out of date, and "strong" leaders can do military things as diversions when economies aren't going so well.

* spiked

I don't think Putin is as dangerous to world peace as Bush was, McCain is and Hilary will be.

Just Checking, I was rash, and 2 dimensional, as is the case with this medium. But fair play you have expounded your argument far better than mine. Gl to you.

Must be a lot of hard winters where that 18 yr old lives..

LOL guinness I was thinking myself she looked a lot older.
Iannucci is getting on a bit as well. No way he's 18 .

The Labour guy has nothing to say other than populist sucking up to audience and viewers, so I expect his reply will be about how great the young people are.

student fees 1 Lib dums 0

What a goddam awful - boring panel. This show really is dying on it's arse..

norwich a labour constituency.....surprised me a little, i would have said con/dem.

Yes it's been a fairly crap episode.
Unfortunately I think Abbot is on "this week"so it might be an early night ;)

They prob think they are voting con/dem

Oh deep joy - Flabbott will turn my stout..

Iannuci has quite big ears, or is that just me?
He's talking sense again though, I forgive him for Question 1.

Just Checking, get your head out of your bottom, and then maybe, just maybe, you will make sense.

I'd read that the nhs 111 service is partly causing the A&E increases as when people phone it they (probably to avoid being sued) if they have any doubts they just tell everyone to go along to A&E!

Verdict

Labour 4 me
Roll on May

You see, the problem is i'm pissed, now when I'm sober I will chew you up you useless cant.HTH

That woman nailed it. No docs appointments.
