Last night’s question time was the best edition I have ever seen; I mean, I found it truly entertaining. To see Brand and Farage duke it out was a spectacle to behold. To tell the truth, though, I’m not sure who came off the better: Brand laid into Farage, and got some very good points in, yet at times he seemed like a one-track record, too eager to score points and go on the attack than to deal with the questions at hand. This irritated me slightly, and I think he could have been better – he gave his detractors too much ammunition. Farage was, of course, classic Farage: arrogant, assuming a superiority he does not deserve, and dissembling his head off The way he tried to neutralise a report proving his views on overcrowding wrong by simply attacking it’s author tells you all you need to know about this puerile little man. But he didn’t say anything to make me too angry: at no point did I feel the urge to throw anything at the tv, or leave the room enraged, as usually happens hen that p’tahk is on. In all, then, quite an awesome episode, and one I’m sure we will be hearing quite a bit spoken about in the coming hours and days.
