Whiney Charles Moore just can't conceive how out of touch he and the rest of the far right are. That's because he comes from that generation and demographic, just like Rees-Mogg, that thinks they have some God-given right to laud it over hoi polloi - even more so over those that have an opinion of their own. And when they don't have it their own way? Well, we saw it last week, didn't we? They cry foul, they shout "unfair", and they scream "We're the victims here". Anyone would think they're something special (which, ironically, is what they think of themselves).

“ I was not personally ill-treated, but I did find it uphill work. The audience was so sure of its views that it was not interested in discussion. On rents, for example, I pointed out that if no-fault evictions are banned (the current crazy plan of Michael Gove), many landlords will leave the market, so rents will rise. This obvious truth seemed part-repulsive, part-incomprehensible to those present.”
Landlords keep rents low the same way ticket touts keep concert ticket prices low….
(I don’t have an issue with no fault evictions but only outside of a tenancy time period, if a tenant is on a rolling contract and it should be a 3 month notice period minimum. Why conservatives keep trying to paint landlords as benevolent persons operating for the good of society is beyond me.)

“ When I complained afterwards to the friendly staff, it was explained that the majority of those chosen had told the audience selectors they had voted Tory at the 2019 election. This prompts two questions. One is, “If they were a majority, why did you choose them? I thought you wanted party balance, not a one-party majority.” The other is, “Do you think they were telling the truth? If you cannot tell, don’t you need better methods of selection?”
Voting Tory at the last election does not mean agreeing with every decision the government ever makes and has made since that election.

Was Charles Moore interested in discussion or was he so sure of his own view that he wasn't willing to countenance that perhaps there were other positions that made more sense?

Ah! Hahahaha! f**k**g hell, Charles Moore-on is a moron. Given that there's a Tory majority in parliament, a Tory majority in the audience is not all that surprising. It's even less surprising given that it's QT whose audience is usually 80% populist gammons. But in fact this stat disabuses us of Moore's main line of reasoning, which is that QT's right-wing gammon audience is way too left wing. So now we know that QT's audience and panel are all idiot right-wingers and yet still Charles Moore complains that it's not right wing enough. When they make me DG of the BBC he'll see what a balanced panel and audience look like and his head will actually explode from the amount of faux outrage he's fermenting inside it.

That's the problem the far right have, they simply can't comprehend why others see their narrow out of touch and supercilious as narrow views as out of touch and supercilious, it appears to baffel them that anyone could possibly hold differing views. And they certainly can't cope when their every utterance is not met with a sycophantic mids/UJ esk simpering reponce.
I've lost count recently when seeing the right doing similar things here and the US, everyone these days who doesn't buy their extremely out there bs conspiracies or disagrees in any way with them is labeled as a paid actor, as they also can't conceive anyone could possibly disagree unless paid to do so.
Moore whining like a child about the audience being stacked by the BBC is exactly the same whine

Amazing to witness the mewling meltdown from the oh-so-in-touch expats.

So, it's not an asylum seeker being relocated to be processed, it's someone whose asylum claim has failed who is being relocated to Rwanda rather than their home country.

Why is this story the lead story on BBC News this morning? It's not news. It's a very sad story, but it's not News, unless they're going to headline every story of any father who has recently lost a child. www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-68930088The BBC clearly have an agenda. They can get stuffed. It's very sad that this little girl was killed by fighting age thugs during a criminal operation. Very sad, but it's hardly surprising. Perhaps they should have just gone back to Iraq.

Sounds like an aggressive campaign to get him and the kids he hasn't killed to stay here.

I feel sorry for the family. I wouldn't want to live in an islam-ridden, brutal shithole. That's the problem. Fix that.
