Hello There,
Just joined up after watching the batterings UKIP have been getting on Question TIme over the last couple of years whenever immigration or leaving the EU is mentioned.
Interesting to see this week's edition where they suddenley seem to be embracing anti immigration discussions, I wonder why?
Even more interesting to see Labour's Angela Eagle getting a dress dressing down over the ridiculous Lord Freud misrepresentation. I can't magine that happening in a previous series of question time. Diane Abbot too, getting a hammering from Andrew Neil on This week over Labour's ridiculous stance on the matter.
A possible change in the air for the BBC's attitude toward's popular opinion?
EM

Hi Enoch and welcome to the forum As I posted here on the topic of last week's QT and the Freud debacle, I don't think the BBC expected the reaction to the question they received. They are so arrogant they really believe their narrative is the only sensible one, and nobody would publicly go against it. As we also covered here on the previous week's QT, it is the design of the BBC in selecting the audience to make sure there will be a majority of left wingers, the same as they do with the panel. You will have seen that the loudest applause by the audience is for those proposed by left wingers, and this was also the case last week. Just so happened that those in the audience that wanted to respond to Eagle's ridiculous comment felt strongly enough about it and called a spade a spade were not left wingers and had a mind of their own. I've no doubt that politicians who have previously tried to dismiss all serious debate on immigration, and now seeing the rise of UKIP, are realising they have to engage on this. BBC will present whatever these politicians come up with, but I doubt the BBC leopard will be changing any spots. I look forward to read more of your observations Enoch.
