Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #bbcquestiontime, aggregated by home.social.

  1. How quickly these people like Zia Yousuf forget that over 80,000 people have been killed in #Gaza whilst they discuss matters on #BbcQuestionTime

  2. "I know Antisemitism is coursing through university campuses," said Atkins on #BbcQuestionTime

    Really?

  3. #BbcQuestionTime "The one thing our Prine Minister can do is ban those marches of hate that have been dominating our cities. They must be stopped" screamed Atkins

    And she was clapped for this hyperbole 🙄

  4. "I want Reform to get absolutely pumped in this election," says Anwar Sawar to much applause and laughter on last night's #BbcQuestionTime

  5. Offord on #BbcQuestionTime 'We will do a deal with the energy companies that have to sell gas to the UK on our domestic market"

    Bruce "Even though they can get a higher price by exporting it"

    Offord "Yes' it will work. They will make a margin on that"

    [The UK does not own any gas licences anymore. It sold those when it gave away the rights to drill the field]

    Offord's deception is applauded

  6. Anwar Sanwar

    "Oil and gas have been good for North East Scotland and the UK. Oil and gas has got a significant role to play for decades to come"

    Opportunist speech on #BbcQuestionTime

    Stupid fool

    Dead Labour

  7. Lots of ppl bleating on #BbcQuestionTime about jobs being lost in Aberdeen and how we are importing the gas from Norway

    What's the difference between UK and Norway

    Norway's equinor is a state owned primary producer. The Norwegian government also owns Petoro, which manages the state's direct financial interests in oil and gas fields.

    The UK meanwhile owns nothing

    God bless Margaret Thatcher xxx.

  8. Offord says things that are untrue on tonight's #BbcQuestionTime

    75% of our energy comes from hydrocarbons he claimed

    The truth, natural gas source, currently powers approximately 26% to 31% of the UK's energy needs

    We can get the North Sea gas to come to the domestic market, he claimed

    The truth is that private owned companies own the infrastructure and licenses to extract the gas.

    We own nothing.

    He is clapped after all of this nonsense

  9. It was halfway through #BbcQuestionTime that the token Liberal Democrat was invited to speak, and even then, she said little of consequence.

  10. Tory man on #BbcQuestionTime with a fat double chin complaining we pay too much tax in this country

    He's wrong

    We don't

  11. Reform man in #BbcQuestionTime in Wales says he can save Wales £145 mill by scrapping green

    Whilst a figure of £145 million is mentioned, there is no official record of a total saving of that specific amount for Wales. The primary impact is the reduction of electricity unit rates by about 3.5p/kWh but where he gets that final value from I have no idea

    He then says there are over 200 quangos
    He has a point. Unchallenged Welsh Lab have ballooned it to 255 ! aberdareonline.co.uk/2025/06/3

  12. #BbcQuestionTime was in Clacton-on-sea last night but #Farage was not there! Even though it's gis constituency. He was miles away in Sunderland.

    Social media users expressed their fury when they tuned in to see other faces on the panel, including Conservative former security minister Tugendhat and even TV personality Tom Skinner. One X user described Mr Farage's omission as "a massive own goal" while another shared their dismay Mr Farage was not able to "face the scrutiny of his constituents.

  13. @ShredderLivesOn I only occasionally watch QT, from behind back of the sofa. But enough to be puzzled by their choice of guest. I get it that they must include members of an annoyingly popular party, but they should make it clear who they are. We should remind them by email ... Perhaps the producers are more naive than we realise. Hard to believe they favour Reform.

  14. Tugenhadt says on tonight's #BbcQuestionTime that about 30% of young ppl get their news from TikTok

    BUT

    ​Intentionality: Most young users don't "seek out" news; they consume it incidentally as it appears in their "For You" feed.

    ​Trust Gap: While usage is high, trust remains low. Many young people report scepticism toward the accuracy of news on the platform, despite preferring its short-form, creator-led format over traditional outlets

  15. Tugenhadt thinks pupils are allowed to use their phones in classrooms

    Hopeless

    #BbcQuestionTime

  16. Tugenhadt thinks that Instagram is "just an algorithm with a screen"

    He's dumb or naive

    #BbcQuestionTime

  17. Smarmy Tugenhadt explaining how Instagram works to Layla Moran on #BbcQuestionTime

    #mansplaining

  18. #BBCQuestionTime

    Where the fuck is Clacton’s MP #NigelFarage???

    Before #brexshit, you could guarantee that every other week #Farage would be top of the billing on #BBCQuestionTime 😡

    Now he’s finally been elected as their MP, after 7 failed attempts, and he’s nowhere to be seen…in his own constituency FFS 🤬

  19. Labour Minister on #BbcQuestionTime indicates that after 18 months of being unemployed, a young person will be offered an employment or training opportunity. This is expressed as though it is a good thing thing. The reality is that failure to engage would lead to benefit sanctions

    🙄

  20. Lucas brings up Palantir at the end of #BbcQuestionTime

    But sadly the programme runs out of time ....

  21. Orr from #Reform is on #BbcQuestionTime saying, "Nigel Farage had never said The NHS should never be anything other than be free at the point of delivery"

    That is not quite true.

    In comments made on LBC radio in May 2024, he said the following:

    “I think we are going to have to move to an insurance-based system of healthcare”

    Xx

  22. Guy in the audience of #BbcQuestionTime saying NHS is not broken is quite right

    I'm sick of hearing this expression

    It's demoralising for ppl who work in the industry if nothing else and plainly untrue

    The NHS is very cumbersome but, in the main, you will get looked after, and almost everyone who works in it is working for you

    Stfu

    Xx

  23. Orr the #Reform idiot on #BbcQuestionTime said tonight "when the wind doesn't blow you will need gas to back it up"

    There are these things called batteries, which act as a buffer by capturing excess electricity during peak wind production and releasing it when winds die down. This smooths out the power supply, ensuring a steady flow to the grid, and prevents energy waste during low-demand periods.

    But what would I know? I'm just a dumb housewife who can Google stuff

    X x

  24. Kiernan Mullan the tory idiot in #BbcQuestionTime is talking about taking the country out the #ECHR

    Daisy Cooper is saying to him

    "You are talking nonsense"

    #scenes
    .he then goes on to say we have 8 million people coming to the UK

    WTAF!!

  25. #AshSarkar

    In one small speech, she has made everything else on #BBCQUESTIONTIME seem like 'small beer' she speaks of (summary)

    £200bill of our money paid to privatised utilities: rail, water, mail, energy, buses that's money that could have gone into reducing customer's bills or infrastructure

    Or social care, run by private equity, looking for 20% profit costing local authorities milions

    There are 50 families in the UK who have more wealth than 50% of this country combined

  26. It's that time of the year again, when the BBC allows ONE Green Party politician onto the panel!

    Get out the bunting and watching on the Broadcast networks tonight, if that's your sort of thing.
    Personally I'd wait for the short video clips to be shared around on social media, there's a lot of gammon to wade through on Broadcast....

  27. DUP man on #BbcQuestionTime is critical of Starmer making a connection between #Frogface and the Hitler Youth saying of Starmer "How low can you go"

    However

    When confronted about the claims about singing Hitler Youth songs by Channel 4 in 2013, Farage said the accusation was “completely silly” and he did not know the words of such songs. As for racist remarks, he added: “Yes, of course, I said some ridiculous things … not necessarily racist things it depends on how you define the word racist

  28. Billy Bragg on #BbcQuestionTime is talking about #Frogface

    He says that Froggy explained on LBC radio that Sharia Law was coming to London because a Muslim taxi driver told him.

    Billy, in rising tones, then goes on to say, "and this man wants to become the Prime Minister. You must be joking."

    He is warmly applauded.

    😄

  29. Catching up with BBC Question Time and if we're going to judge by the opening camera work, it looks like we are in for a good episode. 😅
