There is a 25% increase in suicide since covid, lady on the panel on ##BbcQuestionTime says, meaning that there is a legitimate concern for mental health to be considered as a pip benefit

She goes on to say. How demeaning pip is whether you can "wash your undercarriage or not"

It has dawned on me. Many ppl who do not know about pip assessment may not know about that ignonominious question.

It's a frightful thing to ask anyone.

What have we become as a society???

Andrew Bowie on #BbcQuestionTime "Astonishing to see over 120 MPs quite prepared to have the whip taken away from them less than one year after being returned to government"

I don't really like Andrew Bowie, but he's got a point here

Mr Bigot, in the putrid salmon shirt, talking about Border Force intercepting boats in the English Channel and sending them back to France exemplifies what is wrong with our parsimonious island nation.

"This problem [immigration] isn't going to go away. With #climatechange and emergencies, there's going to be huge population shifts in the decades to come, and the idea that we can be Fortress Britain and Fortress Europe is for the birds. We need international cooperation to deal with what are going to be seismic shifts in a mature way that puts humanity at its heart rather than dumbing down to the most reactionary politics available" - Mark Serwotka #BbcQuestionTime

#BbcQuestionTime closes in high emotion with a lady in the audience shouting "Do something" about #Gaza to Heidi Alexander who, in a wavering voice, says that she is sickened by the seeing the images of the poor #palestinians

As a mother, as a woman, as a human, Heidi is probably very upset

As a politician, she can do fuck all because her boss is no damn good

Ava Evans points out the #Capitalist hell on #BbcQuestionTime when discussing #f35 component parts and jets and #Gaza

"It's not good enough. .. There are many things the government could do for example there are these F 35 jets David Lammy in the Commons just a couple of weeks ago was saying we can't stop the licences on those because we sell components and that would disrupt global supply chains. Can you believe we are talking about global supply chains when 1,000s of children are dying?"

The arse of tonight's #BbcQuestionTime is Tim Montgomery

"Law and Order has to be prioriritised"

""Antisemitic comments made on hate marches in London"

"Fare dodgers on the Tube"

Etc

I am not sure if he has a speech impediment or if he is pissed out of his face.
