I'm doubtful. Renton may disagree. I was on a train coming back from London today that was absolutely rammed, like a rush hour tube. But for a 4 hour journey. So yes, we desperately need more capacity on the railways. Why cant we do both? Provide access to great public transport and broadband? But for free, seriously? What next, free water, utilities, food? I'm sorry, fibre optic broadband isn't some kind of human right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk man, they've only included this because they felt it would be eye catching. They might not even follow through with it. But in terms of getting people's attention, it's succeeding. I mean Johnson is promising all kinds of bollocks about Brexit, I don't see the harm in Labour playing the game a bit on a policy that's popular. They're not gonna be able to do it anyway, so who cares. They'll be minority government at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much we can do about it now sadly. Corbyn is a terrorist sympathising, Stalinist enthusiast, UK hating old man. Johnson is a lying, philandering, insincere, cruel and cynical bastard. While only one of those statements is true, the public clearly can't be expected to establish truth on their own. Which does indeed make Corbyn a liability. Either way he's gone after this. I don't think he'll even see out a full term if he wins it. He looks fed up of all of this now IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44398 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 The Political Party podcast is well worth a listen anyway, but he's doing daily interview episodes during the campaign. The one he did with Gloria De Piero this week - I went from not thinking much of her to being disappointed she's standing down. Well worth a listen.

Dr Gloom 21813 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 If it was deliberate, whoever made the call was completely brainless, given it was literally just reported in the mirror that he laid the wreath upside down. These types of human errors happen, particularly with an archive system as unwieldy as the BBC’s. I don’t buy the conspiracy that it was some senior editorial decision by the beeb to cover up Johnson’s mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very much deliberate & they would have had to go to some effort to make it happen. Well I reckon it would have been 10-15 minutes work which on that schedule is tight. Every time they make this kind of “mistake” it always seems to be beneficial to the tories. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These sort of production errors happen all the time. If it was deliberate, whoever made the call was clearly a moron if they thought for a moment no one would notice given it was literally just reported that he laid it upside down. The notion that some shady senior BBC editor made this happen in order to make Johnson look better is beyond absurd. It would have leaked by now if there was any truth in it. Read the twitter thread from Chris Cook, someone who has hands on experience working in the BBC newsroom.
