In the training VT she said 'I've got to go soon' 'Got to vote'. If she can't put in the time what's she doing there?! It really rankled with me!
Already not liking Oona

I liked her too. her going to vote is no different to other celebs who have carried on with their day job. Does the girl from Corrie annoy you too?
I thought she skated well. I just found it irritating. It was as though she'd only just got there and was already talking about leaving. Plus for me I don't know why politicians find it necessary to do shows like this, I think it's an ego thing.

You don't know what she says, they do clever editing so it was probably done to prove she is an active member of the House of Loards and takes the job seriously. I would have been more worried if she put the skating first and didn't bother going to vote.
I think she is fine. I'm sure they TELL her what to say. This not liking her is more a case of inverted snobbery methinks

Oh honestly
she was most probably told to say it. I wouldn't take everyones VT so literally it was probably just a jokey throwaway comment

Couldn't agree more. I like her, she seems quite grounded, up for a laugh and was a great skater too. She doesn't seem like a lot of other politicians, which is of course a good thing.

She gets paid big bucks for being a baroness?

Yes like her whose name I can't remember at the moment who was on IAC.
I like Oona
Suspect she may have wanted to differentiate herself from Nadine Dorries in terms of still being committed to the job (her & Nadine are already poles apart in their political views.)
Oona was my favourite tonight - both in terms of personality (she comes across as quite natural as opposed to showbizzy, and she's bright) and in terms of skating (she was quite powerful and smooth across the ice).
I broke my rule about not voting. I felt I had to do my bit to help her.

I like her: she's a politician with integrity, and her skating was good too.

I thought she was great. Lovely smile, successful career, nice looking family.... and she has a natural athletic ability. If she can sing too, I'm gonna hate her! lol . Looking forward to seeing her progress.
