Angry What an unpleasant woman!!

Maybe I was feeling a bit jaundiced but I watched Question Time last night and they had the new leader of the Green Party, Natalie Bennett, on the panel.

I suppose she can't help being ugly but she really rubbed me up the wrong way. Noisy, rude and generally obnoxious. And with a strong Oz or Kiwi accent to boot. Not at all like gentile Caroline Lucas

Anyone else share my view?

In what possible way was her accent Australian or New Zealand? It's clearly Australian. The two accents are not the same and why does her having an Australian accent make her worse anyway? At least you can understand what she is saying unlike half of the population of this country!

She came across pretty well. Made some good points, made some not so good ones. But she had the advantage of being on the same panel as that collosal ***** Nigel Farage, so she was alwasy to going to look pretty awesome in comparison.

She and the other lefty spouted an astonishing load of bollocks, I'm not surprised the BBC gave them airtime.

Hahaha Nice one

No seriously, she was a total disaster, and you'll find you are in a minority of the Farage issue come election day. And as Mrs Thatcher used to say about personal attacks:- “I always cheer up immensely if an attack is particularly wounding because I think, well, if they attack one personally, it means they have not a single political argument left.

Dude, have you forgotten your medication? So what if someone isn't any expert in Antipodean accents? Its not crime of the century!

If she spoke like Kylie or Danii Minogue, I can imagine why you felt so p!ssed off. Shame she didn't look like them, or you wouldn't have been so fed up with her.

We need to ring the Fosters Helpline for advice on what to do about the bitch, the guys are very helpful and always give constructive advice.

I think she was just over exited at being on TV and "listened" too for once rather than ignored when in the real world.

She was certainly a particularly unpleasant individual and very incompetent when it came to putting across her point of view.

It was a blessed relief every time when she actually stopped talking!
