Question Time Tonight, Dianne Abacus Is On

[SparklyKid]

Must get some popcorn in.

[Spicerack]

They've brought in Diane to make a monkey out of Jordan Peterson.

[youngmafbog]

Good job it's not CountDown she is on.

Awful MP.

[Mamyalynne]

They aren't endless and CB is the home for nonsense.

As I stated, enjoy the TV programme.

I usually watch it regardless of who is on the panel but she in particular does irk me so I'll see how I feel.

[naomi24]

I don't mind this being in News. It's certainly news to me. I'd have missed it otherwise.

[max137]

I bet she is given an easy ride for someone of limited ability and principle,I never watch it so predictable.

[youngmafbog]

Ask old steptoe. He rode her round Communist East Germany.

[SparklyKid]

I see the chairman is due to leave this December.

[hereIam]

Yuk no thanks, avoid anything she is in !

[Prudie]

Not heard of abacus for her, that's funny. I will try to watch if she's on if only to perpetuate my very low opinion of her - that's if I can stand her horrendous slow drawling voice.

[Deskdiary]

^^^totally agree about her voice - it really grates on my nerves. Couple that with a face that I don't think I could ever tire of slapping*, means I will not be able to watch it. It will wind me up too much.

*before somebody accuses me of promoting violence against women or whatever - I'm exaggerating to make a point.

I’m never quite sure if she speaks in that deliberately slow manner because she thinks the plebs won’t appreciate her soaring intellect otherwise – or because she’s having trouble stringing a few words together.

[Denton]

What’s a “bee holder”,spath?

[Prudie]

I did wonder Naomi if she does it so she has time to pre-think and avoid saying anything stupid but the evidence quashes that theory :-)

[goodgoalie]

Cannot stand her - incompetent and a total hypocrite. And she does that really annoying thing of closing her eyes for several seconds as she speaks in that s l o w condescending voice....

[aelmpvw]

i don't understand how she has been re-relected considering her unpopularity

[retrocop]

She’’s only trying to remember her script. Not capable of thinking on her feet.Sadly her script writer is not much wiser.
Wish the Muppet Show was still going. I can think of an ideal Cameo role for her.

[webbo3]

Retrocop

Imagine the fun spitting image would have.

[naomi24]

Prudie, I've no doubt that's one of her reasons but, as you say, it doesn't work.

[douglas9401]

It's a device to add gravitas which, incidentally, is an Old English word meaning 'resembles a constipated bullfrog'.
