Another Car Crash Interview

[Hymie]

This video interested me, not just because it is another car crash interview from a Tory politician, but because of the observation made by the commentator.  And that is that interviewers’ no longer have to be nice to the Tories (otherwise they won’t be invited to interview them again), potentially damaging their careers.

 

Hopefully we can look forward to more, where the interviewer does not swallow the Tory BS we’ve seen over the last 14 years.

oh that has been around  for a long time - at least the time of ma deah late daydie - who said: it is the journos equivalent of "acting like a dismissed servant".

for us teenies it was 'dont tell your headmaster what you think of his school when you are leaving'

There was a prog "yesterdays men" which caused a stir after the election defeat of 1970

that was because the yesterday's men insisted they still had some foo left in them

this is not a spurious post - i just have a long memory

On 17 June 1971 a documentary called Yesterday's Men was broadcast, featuring several Labour ex-Ministers, which examined how they were adjusting to life a year after their defeat in the 1970 General Election.
