    Only two politicos? Dunno if that is a good thing or not, maybe we might get a bit of entertainment although Hunt is dreadfully dry.

    God not Corbyn. The left will be creaming their pants. God knows what the audience'll be like, they'll be whipping up left wing annarchy. Specially with the recent blows dealt to the BBC.

    Just what is needed - a comedienne. No doubt as she is listed as a 'stand-up' she will be left wing, which will provide balance, if not much humour.

    Tonight from Greys Essex, filmed in front of a live studio audience of NHS nurses… It’s Thursday Night Live!

    Hosted by the slightly crumpled and often confused David Dimbleby.

    Guest Starring…
    Zouk Lambada enthusiast Jeremy Hunt
    All round barrel of laughs Comrade Corbyn
    That Scots one with the weird face Anne McElvoy
    Token Ethnic Shappi Khorsandi
    Professional Muslim baiter Douglas Murray

    Get ready for a moral minefield of a debate that will include ISIS/IS/ISIL/Dash... oh you know, the bad guys. And part 1383 of the ongoing Greek crisis.

    Warm up the Clap-o-meter...

    This must be close to the record for the QT thread, #4 and we have the first moan about the audience.

    They might as well ask the bloke in my local chip shop what his views on politics are.

    You think they would have learned their lessons from Jo Brand

    Topics:
    should we continue to help Greece or just let them suffer?
    should we continue to help the chronically ill & disabled or just let them suffer
    should we continue to stay out of Syria or make them suffer some more by starting to bomb them?

    Is that the same chippy Mhairi Black works in?

    They shouldn't only have two politicians on! There are more parties than the Tories and Labour. I'm seldom interested in what the columnists say to be honest.

    Douglas Murray is always good, Khorsandi will do the standard right on leftie comedian routine and spout the usual BBC audience pleasing cliches

    How long before she mentions she was born in Iran? I'll go for 2 minutes.

    I don't think she will as immigration isn't on the news agenda tonight, I reckon it will be something like "the poorest and most vulnerable in society" in regards to benefits cuts, or "it was the bankers that caused it"

    Quite so - It's her entire act and it's not even funny. Can't abide the woman. Off for me.

    They actually called Shappi Khorsandi a comedian? FFS.

    I'd love to go to one of her gigs and see who actually laughs at her 'routine'.

    I wouldn't pay though.

    He is a perfect example of a weird crush. He's a gay male Melanie Phillips.
