Channel 4?? I got it on Sky News full programme and still watching the after . After that programme Tory lead will be slipping again, sorry but she failed to win my vote, she failed in front of the audience and got hammered by that horrible Paxman who has to be the most arrogant arsehole on the TV.

Re: Corbyn V May Channel 4 8.30 pm tonight.
Audience thought she was a tit, sorry she failed to impress. Be interesting to see how the press report it in the morning. Perhaps the press barons may just consider keeping the cheque books closed seeing as the landslide forecast victory is not going to happen. Yes I am sure she will get a majority, but certainly not the resounding one she needs to send the EU a strong message, woman is starting to look a laughing stock. Cap on this,U turn on that. She was asked a simple question about police cuts by a serving officer, her response was laughable.

NHS crisis, education crisis, u turns ... you can't trust Theresa May. Let's get this into the top 40. Download now and force the BBC to play it on our airwaves. All proceeds from downloads of the track between 26th May and 8th June 2017 will be split between food banks around the UK and The People's Assembly Against Austerity.

Despite many thinking social media is the preserve of youngsters, Conservative MP and grandson of Winston Churchill Sir Nicholas Soames is widely regarded as the best user of hashtags, which he uses as vehicles for his great wit.
He and his opponent in the general election managed to show great sportsmanship, posing together for a photo, which Mr Soames kindly tweeted out with the comment: "Great to meet my Election opponent Baron von Thunderclap of Monster Raving Loony party at Staplefield Fete #gobaron".
Many have said it showed true British spirit, to be so polite to someone who has views so different from their own.
As candidates attack each other in order to claw their way into Parliament, it is cheering to see two opposing sides take a picture together, when the couldn't look more different.
Is this the best tweet of the general election campaign?

Re: Corbyn V May Channel 4 8.30 pm tonight.
As regards your NHI problems maybe you should take a leaf out of the Australian book. Was speaking to a recent arrival from the UK the other day who at the moment is a permanent resident and lives with his daughter. He had to put up front 130,000 dollars for the privilege in case of any medical treatment in the future. Think he is supposed to get back at a later date maybe perhaps. If the British government is stupid enough to take in all the sick of the world at the people's expense what can you expect. Doesn't take an Albert Einstein to tell them 2 into 1 doesn't go. JWS

EG: DHS in crisis
36 MILLION calls to Centrelink weren’t answered last year. Thousands and thousands of Australians have been harassed with robodebt letters.
The social security system that sustains our community is crumbling beneath us – and Malcolm Turnbull’s solution? Cut another 1188 more staff and replace them with 250 outsourced call centre workers. 250 outsourced staff without proper training cannot fix the robodebt crisis or replace the many more permanent jobs that are being cut. They cannot answer 36 million phone calls a year.
