Leaders’ Debate and QT Liveblogging Thur 22nd


This Thursday evening brings a double-bill of liveblogging…. 

“You lucky people”, as Tommy Trinder used to say.

First up at 8.00pm we will be live blogging the 2nd Leaders’ Debate which is being broadcast on Sky News between 8.00pm and 9.30pm. Rather like the Budget chat this promises to be great fun as once again 10 blogs will all be hosting it simultaneously. Let’s see if Sky do a better job than the lamentable ITV production, and set a standard for the BBC to fail to live up to.

This ‘chat’ collaboration will be between All Seeing Eye, Barking Spider, Biased-BBC, Corrugated Soundbite, Dick Puddlecote, Governmentitus, GrumpyOldTwat, Man Widdicombe, Subrosa and Tory Totty Online, – all excellent and highly recommended blogs. If you haven’t been to some of them before then please take this chance to try them out.

After a pause for breath we’ll be running our own regular chat for Question Time and This Week starting at 10:30pm. Hopefully you can make both.

See you here on Thursday night!

    For those in N Ireland there is to be a leaders debate on Thursday night which might be worth missing unless a miracle happens as the audience will be all first time voters and culled from Universities and student groups. At least that is what I’m led to believe.  Better off sticking with sky and live blogging here.

    Just watched SKY News, and now wondering why would the travails of the Bristol transport system have any bearing on what is meant to be a national debate; one to which I submitted many questions as invited on many areas of concern, but seems to have turned into yet another narrow topic-specific, editorially pre-selected, rehearsable farce.

    In light of revelations recently on the BBC internal structure, one can only imagine what might make it through, or be edited out before even getting asked on air.
