Me - Vocally Calling Out Idiots Since 1973! 😁
Poetic justice now.
Don’t kick your ball into this woman’s garden.
You won’t get it back.
20% Dame Edna.
We have taken far fewer than other EU nations or that was at least true while we were in the EU.
But the bigger issue is that if we were not party to destabilising the middle East etc we would not be creating these outpourings of refugees.
I bet it's none.
Ask them what the number should be and how they arrived at that number and they haven't got a clue
Some of the audience, like this woman, were also truly abhorrent racists with zero empathy or humanity. At least Alastair Campbell and a gentleman from the audience in the red jumper tore Farage a new one.

Shame the BBC can’t do anything about this.
Lady to her right clearly shocked at her attitude 😳
Nigel Farage convinced people to vote to replace Europeans with non-Europeans.
It’s astonishing and worrying just how stupid and gullible some Brits are.

Mad, isn’t it! 🙂🤷♀️
Big ups to the person who laughed out loud at the end.
It spills out into a blinkered percentage of the population and grows unchecked
Without balanced debate we will follow the USA down the same rabbit hole
Be warned
I live in one of those towns. I’ll be going to see one of those asylum seekers later today. A Syrian, a solicitor in his own country. He’s a friend, he cooks for us, his friends, and has trained as a volunteer lifeguard to help people get into swimming. I’d take a hundred of him over her
Happy Christmas (War isn’t that bad)
Its vicious, heartless, bigoted racism.
And I don’t care if she’s got this from reading the Daily Mail for 30 years.
The only way we’ll stop these views progressing is by telling people like her the truth to their faces.
But people in her village who don’t want foreigners living near them should be given every consideration.
Unpleasant, selfish woman.
So much of this comes down to misinformation.
But I don't think many thought of her and her peers when angry about the winter fuel payment. Old, comfortable and selfish.
How do people make "far too much of war"?
Should they just sit there and smile while the bombs rain down.
This is the sort of ignorant person that votes Reform. What sort of mindset does it take to go on national TV and spout this sort of BS?
To achieve despite all the odds is truly amazing.
I can't understand how people like this even exist.
The essence of idiocy and severely lacking in the milk of human kindness.
And you are right - we need to challenge the ignorance - until we go back to listening to experts we are f*cked!
Because if we did we would have seen what drug induced idiocy the Brexiteers were peddling
We have not recovered since.
Press with a backbone
How can people that simple solutions to complex problems just do not exist…
but the reason it was called Kindertransport is because only the children were eventually & grudgingly accepted in as refugees. Their parents were expected to stay and die (and did).

"Oh mum, do we have to? She's weird and smells like sprouts and is a massive bigot and I really don't want to."
I mean how many periods throughout history have we managed to live peacefully, with everyone ?
Pretty much none
Education makes a difference but the most greedy are taking over
Flags ?
Football?
Just small indicators
Kids like everyone are pretty selfish, they won't share until encouraged to do so.
That's education
Teaching consideration for others
Go to an infant school and put some sweets on the table..
Denialism based on being a heartless, selfish 🐄 😠
Good to see nobody applauding her.
she might be old, but i doubt she's THAT old

A perfect example of why the UK is as bad as it is right now.
When you’re not they become quite uncomfortable and invariably walk away
Feeling sorry for towns and villages is also why nothing is built and the state is in such a mess.

The latter loved reform
It did sound off but:
1. This is Lincoln - pretty right wing
2. Audience comments generally were ‘reformy’ but applause often for progressive points
Bigots like being heard
16.01.20 was mostly Conservative even in Liverpool which has 5 Labour MPs, & Tories didn't poll higher than 13%
You'd expect with their fine BBC sense of balance 🤣 , that they could find some alternative viewpoints, but gammon always seems to be prominent
The argument is yet again on race - firmly on Farages turf
She told you the answer herself, she mentioned qualifications- the response should be how many go on to become professionals and enrich society and what she thinks the % of immigrants are versus reality
And in my view far too many idiots on the panel also
It was a political show . Lots of edgy debate & great panellists .
Now it’s a chat show with ‘personalities’ ☹️
Enough said.
Bruce can be good but she lets some guests get away with too much, and is too harsh on others.
It was probably Farage's sister!
Farage isn't interested in the welfare of anybody but himself.
I fear that we are slowly walking towards a Reform led government.
I do think the current government gets this but their communication is pretty poor.
I see these twats when they come in, they still get great care and some refuse to see it because brown skin. It's infuriating, but they are the minority.
It's a weird situation because they're great with us and the kids, but they're racists.
