Some EU countries aren't even excepting the E111.
And by the way, I had freedom of movement years ago across Europe before the EU with my old BRITISH passport.

I quite enjoy watching QT and I think that Farage is a pretty sensible bloke in most respects.
The one thing that does annoy me is when Dimblebum persists in interrupting people or interrupting them when they are trying to make a valid point. He can really be very bad mannered and also ruin a person's statement.

Brand being the usual cockjockey he is. I'm no fan of Farage but seeing him take notes against each other speaker and proceed to rip them apart with their own words is how this is done.

True Matt,
But the underlying argument of haves and have nots has been all true prevalent through this debate. It's the politics of envy and jealousy, dividing the population. I fear for this country come the next election.

This would have far more impact than immigration scare stories.

And in true Godwins Law style, I must ask, in a Russell Brand-speak (or bollocks) have you just fallen foul of it which "cause the individual making the comparison to lose his argument or credibility, Godwin's law itself can be abused as a distraction, diversion or even as censorship, fallaciously miscasting an opponent's argument as hyperbole when the comparisons made by the argument are actually appropriate".
So do you really support Farage or are you just talking **** like Russel Brand (and to be fair he's just a Marketing/PR's/TdW's wet dream, using 163 words to make a sentence that everyone else could make in 6 words).

I have to hand it too him, Farage was the only one giving concise and credible answers to the issues raised along with the Times journalist on the end of the panel. Brand was being his usual self spouting the same old populist soundbites and the rhetoric until an audience member shut him up which knocked the wind out of him for the rest of the programme, what a cop-out!

Brand is certainly full of his usual bul1$h1t rhetoric and his constant attacks on his target. He's quite predictable, if not completely boring.
That audience member might have been successful in curbing Brand's loud voice with his even louder voice, but that's about it. Same quality as the intellectual Hitchens brothers; an ounce of which Brand possesses himself. I find such loudmouth arguers quite annoying, even when they're not always irrational. Empty vessels on a windy day.

Yes, Farage was the only one who seemed to have straight answers, but the audience didn't seem to be convinced with his answers regardless.

. Of the other two politicians either side of DD, you really could tell which party they stood for.

Bunny La Roche, SWP hard left activist, she has form shall we say. Amazing that a hard leftie got onto the show....! Nice put down from the other audience member though. People are starting to find their voice again against the leftie shouters

people are becoming less tolerant of minority, immigrants etc the fact UKIP has risen to where it is is proof of it.

Labour, on coming to power in 1997, retained the hated Chris Woodhead as OFSTED Chief, even though Blair had said he was a disgrace, since Blunkett convinced Blair that he "had to be seen to be strong against teachers, since no-one likes teachers..."
This present lot have come in and, within three years of taking power, placed the blame for the country's economic problems squarely on the shoulders of the public sector, pensioners and now immigrants.

Anyway, I liked Christopher more than the other one. The other one is always in a wound up state. He needs to take a chill pill.

It's not immigrants we should target, it's mega corporations and the elite shi77ing all over everyone.

There is a lot of this shown on here. "Maggies children" are rife.
"I'm alright jack" and "It's OK because it doesn't effect me in a bad way", or "it's good for me, personally, so the rest of the country can stick it..."
That last one was Lying Labour policy when they were one of only THREE EC countries to open the floodgates to Eastern European migrants. The other two had genuine need for low paid workers. We just put tens of thousand of our youth on the scapheap, then conned tens of thousands more into going to university and saddling themselves with b/s degrees and a nice big debt.
I'm not sure that some parts of this country will EVER recover.
