PSA : Farage vs Brand on question time tonight …

in case no-one has pointed it out (I looked…) :

http://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2014/dec/11/russell-brand-v-nigel-farage-question-time

Is that not running the risk of forming a critical mass of nonsensical, egotistical, self-absorbed blathering that could potentially threaten the existence of the planet!

Will somebody think of the children!!!

Train smash TV. I wonder if Brand can actually have a sensible debate and keep his mouth shut when it’s not his turn to speak.

I’m just dissapointed Joey Barton’s not on.

So the ultimate QT ?

Brand
Farage
Barton
Boris
Katie Price (she’s been in the news this week too)

EDIT I will be watching part 2 of the ITV drama on Christopher Jeffries regarding the very serious press intrusion he suffered. After that I’ll turn over to the pantomime that QT has become

Hopefully with them occupying the same space, the twunt levels will reach critical mass and they’ll explode

Hmm. Forks. Eyeballs.

I go for

Brand
Farage
Blair
Hitchens
Dawkings

BOOM!

Mao
Stalin
Churchill
Hitler
Roosevelt

Don’t think my TV is big enough to fit both their egos on at once.

What Jambalaya said about Train Crash TV, I certainly won’t be tuning in because Brand irritates the shit out of me by not completing a sentence without repeating himself 15 times.

Farage could be comedy value however.

Russell Brand
Nigel Farage
Piers Morgan
Jeremy Clarkson
Anjem Choudary
Alex Salmond
Tommy Robinson

Reckon brand might be on a loser here. As his prime weapon is to flirt…
Surely Fararge loves himself enough already to be taken in by the world’s oldest trick

Farage and Brand are intellectual lightweights. Would be much more interesting to have David Starkey, Bob Geldof and/or Will Self (not that I’m a massive fan of them, but they do at least think before speaking)

Truth is @wrecker I was thinking of AS but I’m maxed out on him after 2 years of the referendum.

I just read Brand has been on with Boris before

Add the horror that is Katie Hopkins for the win.

Maybe we could start some sort of QT fantasy league? Not sure on the scoring system though.

Truth is @wrecker I was thinking of AS but I’m maxed out on him after 2 years of the referendum.

He’d be largely left alone anyway. Brand/farage, morgan/clarkson (given their history) and Robinson/Choudary would be scrapping leaving AS for a nice long, monologue……

Preening punditry and dumbed-down demagoguery replaces discourse shocker!!1111

This will need beer…

Geldof thinks before speaking?

Bollocks. Not really, bollocks.

Im going to try to watch this.

Try, being the operative word.

Reflects the sad state of current UK politics that either get airtime. Both talk bllx, just from a different angle.

The ultimate nightmare QT

Farage
Galloway
Salmond
Starkey
Hopkins K – token

Desperate times!!

It’ll be just like a pantomime, but with longer words.

Oh no it won’t….

You will learn nothing and nothing will change if you watch the program.
They are both cretins given too much media space.
Verbose yet saying nothing.

People that like Brand don’t like Farage. People that like Farage couldn’t care less what people like Brand say. Farage is on to a winner here.

BRAND to win,, they’ll be nowt left of Nigel by the end

does anyone else think Brand is actually alright and a damn sight better than many people that have jobs making decisions for this country

There’s a drunk guy sleeping on a park bench not far away that’d be better at running the country.

I do… But besides that, Farage is the leader of a political party with representation in europe and westminster, he should be being held to standards a damn sight higher than Brand, who is Just Some Guy With A Youtube Channel

Being better than Dave and chums is setting the bar pretty low tbh

Brand is a nice guy and his heart is the right place

Brand to win. Farage won’t turn up. (Stuck in traffic).

Yeah, and we all know who’s fault that is

Starting now.

I think if I were Farage I’d rather be facing Paxman…

Is question time still going? Last one I watched all the way through Tony Benn was on it.

It’s a good one!

Fight fight fight!!

Nah, it’s not.

It’s pantomime posing as political debate.
It’s been going downhill for years, but it’s just embarrassing now.
Simplistic questions, parroted answers.

‘Any Questions?’ is infinitely better.

Brand just had the moment like the lady that asked Mrs T about sinking of the Belgrano. 😆

Mr Joe Public completely destroyed Brand there and I am afraid that will be the end of his action tonight … he is hurt.

Those two female politicians are lightweight can’t they get Yvette Cooper or Chuka Umunna or Mr Balls or Fatty Eric Pickles for more laugh? We need more desperate profile enhancing characters in the debate …

By eck there are some numpties in the audience.

This is ridiculous! These immigrants simultaneously unemployed on benefits, taking all the jobs, committing all the crime and driving up and down the M4.
