"Theresa May is chicken shit to debate Weak ass excuse to see she debates with Corbyn every week in the House of Commons so what about all the other party leaders in devolved parliaments My guess she is shite feart to go infront of a camera against Nicola Sturgeon because the question will come up about independence no doubt and people are fed up with her shite auto que piss poor lines of now is not the time to have an independence referendum so when is the time then since she claimed last year now is not the time to have a GE election but the u -turn now is the time to have a GE election piss poor Theresa May is have a look at her voting record since 1998 and see how shite she really is" The time for an independence referendum in Scotland will be after Brexit is fully completed, however long that takes. Sturgeon will just have to put her toys back in her pram and wait. | |||

"Why would she want to waste time talking and listening to shite on the tv to increase the tv ratings and achieve feck all else? All just to satisfy people who want to grandstand on tv to the masses that they are still hanging on to the vain hope of trying to hold up brexit as long as possible hoping against hope of even trying to stop it
Just a waste of time let the government put all the energy into the negotiations and not waste time taking shite on the tv."To face the public and be challenged by all leaders of other devolved governments its piss poor to say she does it every week with Corbyn in the house of commons but she doesnt the Scottish , Welsh and N.Ireland governments and there is the problem she is chicken shit to face them and the public incase she fucks up where as she thinks she can get away with it in the house of commons with her Tory pals shouting out here here here here outdated pish!!! | |||

"I'm surprised she doesn't want to do one ! She'd run rings round Corbyn ! " If you read between the lines you will see why she is afraid to go against the rest of the leaders. Her excuse was that she goes every week in the house of commons and debates with Corbyn but she doesnt come up against the SNP leader and Plaid Cymru leader or Sinn fein leader and there is where the real problem comes from her as she will be forced into answering questions she keeps dodging through fear that she fucks up Like i said people should have a wee read at her record since 1998 on certain votes to see how piss poor she is | |||

"if she doesn't want to be there.... just "empty chair" her explain at the beginning of the debate they were all invited and she declined... no special treatment and then everyone can go to town on her record on the nhs and education.... if she wants to defend her record, she can show up and defend her record.. they talk about her doing it at PMQ's every wednesday.... but not everyone watches it, this time she if she decides to can put her message to the entire nation if she decides not to... thats on her"  | |||

"Why would she want to? She's already won And I thought you supported democratic traditions, or is that only when it suits you?" What democratic tradition are you talking about? The one where people go to the polling booths and vote? Yes I support that one and that is where she will win by a country mile | |||

"Why would she want to? She's already won And I thought you supported democratic traditions, or is that only when it suits you?" Do you mean the televised debate tradition that only started 2 elections ago
For the record I think she should appear on at least one if invited and the other main party leaders are appearing. If she doesn't people will see it as a sign of weak leadership. | |||

It includes things like debates and opposition. You know, those inconvenient things that get in the way of absolute power. | |||

It includes things like debates and opposition. You know, those inconvenient things that get in the way of absolute power." And because I was interested I even looked it up: "Democracy consists of four key elements: (a) A political system for choosing and replacing the government through free and fair elections; (b) The active participation of the people, as citizens, in politics and civic life; (c) Protection of the human rights of all citizens, and (d) A rule of law, in which the laws and procedures apply equally to all citizens" Funnily enough (d) is also probably unpopular amongst those claiming to support democracy. You remember those pesky "enemy of the people" judges right? And don't even start me on (c)! Next time I hear any Brexiter bang on about democracy I'm going to laugh in their face. | |||

"Why is Nicola Sturgeon wishing to appear on tv on an election debate when she isnt even standing to be elected in that election? " Maybe just maybe its because she is the leader of the SNP and First Minster in Scotland where she represents the Scottish people yes i know am gonna get that the whole i didnt vote for SNP but thing is the SNP were elected in Scotland so she does represent the whole of Scotland. What would be to fear by not allowing the leader of the SNP /First Minster to debate ? | |||

The UK general election is about Westminster seats, so it would be more credible for the SNP to put forward one of their Westminster MP's for any televised general election debate such as Alex Salmond MP or Angus Robertson MP. What are you afraid of putting one of those forward instead? | |||

Then the public can really see the shambolic alternatives go at it with each other and the horrific prospect of any one of them getting any where near a sniff of power would see Theresa May and the tories hoover up votes in droves. | |||

"I was surprised to hear most political commentators reckon Corbyn, that's right Jeremy Corbyn, generally trounces May at pmq's. It's only the pre prepared jokes that get airtime plus the right wing media are so scared of Corbyn they would never dare report a bit of truth. It does explain why she isn't doing a televised debate where every one can see it. " It's hardly surprising, JC has been doing what he does for a long time.

Her excuse was that she goes every week in the house of commons and debates with Corbyn but she doesnt come up against the SNP leader and Plaid Cymru leader or Sinn fein leader and there is where the real problem comes from her as she will be forced into answering questions she keeps dodging through fear that she fucks up Like i said people should have a wee read at her record since 1998 on certain votes to see how piss poor she is It's not only Corbyn who Teresa May debates at PMQ's every Wednesday, it's the Lib dem leader Tim Farron and the former SNP leader Alex Salmond, although Salmond doesn't seem to have much to say, he leaves most of the talking to Angus Robertson. You fail to see Alex Salmond is an MP and foreign affairs spokesman in the House of Commons and Angus Robertson is the Depute Leader of the Scottish National Party and spokesperson on the Constitution in the House of Commons Any MP can ask the Prime minister a question at PMQ's, or does Alex Salmond regularly lose his voice on a Wednesday lunchtime? At PMQ's i think you will find as Angus is the leader in the House of Commons for the SNP and they only get a certain amount of questions they can ask they cant just stand up and ask questions when they want to jesus i think you need to look up on how PMQ's works on how many questions each get I regularly watch it live on Parliament television or listen to it live on the radio so I'm fully aware of the format and how it works thanks. Ah so you will agree then that they only get a certain amount of questions that they can ask and they cant just stand up and shout out and ask a question to the PM or they would be there for hours as every MP would want to ask endless questions. The only way someone can stand up and ask something if the person talking at the time gives way. Subject to being selected by the speaker. Do try to keep up.
Blah blah blah.
So you can't just stand up and ask a question then? Doh!
I never actually said they could, that was an assumption on your part. It's obvious if you have any knowledge about the subject that the speaker selects MP's who want to ask questions. Thought that went without saying but now it appears It needed to be explained to you.

Amazing how quickly you back peddle. I did promise myself previously I wouldn't engage with you. It's like debating a child at a pantomime.
I've not back peddled on anything. You thought you were being a smart arse with your 'order paper' which you dragged up from Google when it appears you didn't even realise MP's had to be selected by the speaker.
Dude, why are you arguing when you've so clearly been schooled?
Night night. As I say above, there's no point arguing with a child at a pantomime."Night night am off to have fun with the wife and then bed Its been fun debating and having laugh with everyone hope you all have a nice day happy swinging | |||

In your world forecasts must always come true or they are lies? Interesting. Maybe you should get a job as a weather girl. Sources from No 10 have reportedly said that the PM is considering a number for different TV formats other than head to head debate. So why don't you think they would just put misleading adverts on TV? On no, maybe not as we have the farce of a situation the a permanent decision like leaving the EU and majorly impacting the country and citizens require only a simple majority (and they can lie on TV) yet a temporary event such as an election is far stricter. I mean they required a supermajority to vote to dissolve parliament two years early! -Matt | |||

"I was surprised to hear most political commentators reckon Corbyn, that's right Jeremy Corbyn, generally trounces May at pmq's. " That's not what even my Labour friends tell. What they tell me is that he does occasionally score a few points but most of the time he's either playing at the wrong end of pitch, often scoring own goals, or he's not even playing on the same game on the same pitch. Sorry. " It's only the pre prepared jokes that get airtime plus the right wing media are so scared of Corbyn they would never dare report a bit of truth.

"Theresa May is chicken shit to debate Weak ass excuse to see she debates with Corbyn every week in the House of Commons so what about all the other party leaders in devolved parliaments My guess she is shite feart to go infront of a camera against Nicola Sturgeon because the question will come up about independence no doubt and people are fed up with her shite auto que piss poor lines of now is not the time to have an independence referendum so when is the time then since she claimed last year now is not the time to have a GE election but the u -turn now is the time to have a GE election piss poor Theresa May is have a look at her voting record since 1998 and see how shite she really is" There's no need for her to do the TV debates. She's going to win, its just by how much. As for Charman Sturgeon, she is an insignificant irritation. A bit like athletes foot, only not as attractive. | |||

"Yes they are the rules. Shame leave supporters don't understand them.

"Why would she want to? She's already won And I thought you supported democratic traditions, or is that only when it suits you? What democratic tradition are you talking about? The one where people go to the polling booths and vote? Yes I support that one and that is where she will win by a country mile Democracy is about a lot more than voting every so often. It includes things like debates and opposition. You know, those inconvenient things that get in the way of absolute power. And because I was interested I even looked it up: "Democracy consists of four key elements: (a) A political system for choosing and replacing the government through free and fair elections; (b) The active participation of the people, as citizens, in politics and civic life; (c) Protection of the human rights of all citizens, and (d) A rule of law, in which the laws and procedures apply equally to all citizens" Funnily enough (d) is also probably unpopular amongst those claiming to support democracy. You remember those pesky "enemy of the people" judges right? And don't even start me on (c)! Next time I hear any Brexiter bang on about democracy I'm going to laugh in their face. Why? And you talk about democracy then had to google what it was??
Who would check facts before stating an opinion, I must be a loser.
Correct
Sums up your approach to facts I suppose.
I apologise, I'll just make stuff up in future. Maybe then you'll believe it.
What, like TV debates are a tradition?
Debates in general are.
True, which is what she does all the time and why she will be elected with a large majority. I think maybe you're confusing debates with slanging matches, which is what televised 'debates' usually sink to"You said Theresa May does it all the time debating ? Do you mean in the House of Commons ? She does with Corbyn but she does not with the SNP leader My opinion she is shite feart to debate with Nicola as she will have to answer hard questions that the public will see and call her out for not answering. Empty chair seems the best way and we then can see Theresa May is coward to go infront of a camera to debate all leaders not just Corbyn. Remember 2015 when Cameron said on live tv no child tax credits and then win the election and thats what the Tories were planning on doing thats why its important to have tv debates to keep these assholes to account of what they say and face all leaders and face the public when the public in the crowd in where they are holding the debate can get to ask questions to all leaders why do people think Theresa May should get away with no answering questions that she may not like ? Simple answer she is coward and she wont have her wee Tory pals by her side to clap and shout out Here here here here outdated pish!! thats sad in 2017 MP's that represent the people shout out here here here here. | |||

He is the leader of the SNP in Westminster not the leader of the party the big give away is a leaders tv debate Courteous? You must watch a different PMQ's than me as every week she is pish poor at actually answering the question being asked to her she goes off into her own wee world and cop's out answering. Take for example Angus has asked her more than once if she thinks she has a UK wide agreement on brexit ? We all knwo the answer is no she doesnt but she didnt answer it she went through with it anyway. Its the same with Corbyn ive noticed he does ask some good questions some of the time but never gets an answer Theresa May is piss poor like i said have a look at her record since 1998 on voting on things.We can all see her PR behind the scenes is saying no dont do as they know she is shite at debating. If she had any baws she would debate with every leader and let the public ask questions to her but she is shite feart and we all know it | |||

And you will find she will be on TV plenty over the coming weeks, debating with political journalists who actually know what they're talking about, not the motley crew of the other party leaders, jeez they must be scraping the barrel, and the general public.

"Then you will know that there is no mechanism for NS and TM to actually debate on a regular basis! NS could always stand as a candidate in a constituency should she desire but I would hazard a guess that she won't. I watch PMQs every week. TM does what she has to, and even I can see the despair in her eyes, as the SNP "waste" their questions on what is basically a mischief making exercise, something the SNP promised to do in Westminster." Waste their questions ? So wanting to know from the PM if she things she has a UK wide agreement on brexit is wasting questions now ? Lets not forget it was Theresa May that said she would look to get a UK wide agreement before she triggers brexit No SNP made it clear they will NOT vote with the Tories and will make things hard for them as an opposition should not go and vote with the Tories Can anyone not see what it done to Labour in Scotland voting with the Tories let they still havent fucking learned one single bit how much people are pissed off with Labour | |||

That was a straight two party fight. General Elections are different, and have different rules. Broadcasters cannot favour one party over another, and I believe that all parties have monitors in place to make sure that this doesn't happen. You invite the two main parties, then who else do you invite? The Greens have one MP, so they will want a voice. The SNP are a purely Scottish party, so do you invite them? Then UKIP will say that they want to appear? Does that then upset the Welsh, as both now have no MPS? As it's a "Brexit" election, do Sinn Fein suddenly decide that they want a podium? It's just not as simple as putting three podiums in front of a TV audience | |||

Yes there maybe people in England that hate her but the fact remains there is people in England born in England that think Nicola is a great leader and politician and there is English people members of her party so the pro union side cant really paint the picture the SNP are anti English that is all a wee scare story as they are running out of ideas of to try and get rid of SNP even trying the tactical voting pish i hear Take a swatch and pro union supporter Jill Stephenson asking how is best to tactical vote to keep SNP out this is the same woman that said this about English born pro Independence supporters in Scotland I quote '' Those fuckers from down south'' That is her calling English born people fuckers all because they live in Scotland and believe in independence nothing shocks me anymore about how nasty some of the pro union side can be Oh and they just to get it independence is not SNP and SNP is not independence all it shows is their bitterness and hatred towards the SNP because the will of the Scottish voters elect the SNP to govern Scotland and give Scotland a voice in the UK will the UK is still together for now | |||

"I know lots of English people who can't stand her, call her lots of names and would rather cut Scotland adrift to get rid of her! +1 to this. If there was any goodwill between Scotland and the rest of the UK, she is eroding it. Hateful woman on her own agenda " Few hateful comments on these political posts. Scots are often accused of hatred towards the english, when it seems to be the other way around with some people. Maybe you should ask for a mandate to eject us from the UK , can guarantee half the scottish population would thank you, and the other half would see exactly how we are thought of. And for the record we are an english/scottish couple, and find it sad reading the bitterness and venom in some of the posts on here. | |||

"I dont get all the fuss about not debating with Sturgeon. SNP is a minority party, with a single policy in a small country. Surely May has bigger things to worry about than a midget in Scotland Clue is in the name its a tv leaders debate and Nicola is the leader of the SNP and Scotland is in the so called equal partnership and family of nations in the UK am not seeing it. I dont get all this SNP is minority government yeah thats true but do people not see what happened the last time in 2007 when SNP were a minority government in the next election in Scotland in 2011 the people thanked them and made them a majority government and lets not forget in 2016 yes they got a minority government and were only two short of getting that majority again and they also got over a million voters to vote for them in a designed parliament to stop majority government every happening not a bad record for a party that people seem to think is useless when a majority still think they are looking out for the Scottish people also not to metion the amount of English people that have signed up to be members of the SNP even though pro union supporters will try hard to paint them off as anti English I'm English and i know loads of English people who thinks shes bloody brilliant.She has more passion in her little finger the May has ever had in her lifetime. I think maybe there's just a slight exaggeration somewhere there
Exaggeration in what ? In the passion part ? He is correct Nicola show passion on creating a equal and fairer Scotland and hopes the UK would do the same where is Theresa May show utter nastiness in the way she treats the people of the UK take the people unfit to work and there is people out there through no fault of their own will illness that they cant work losing their money all because the Tories want to cut their money to save money because they rack up the UK debt

"Why would she want to? She's already won And I thought you supported democratic traditions, or is that only when it suits you? What democratic tradition are you talking about? The one where people go to the polling booths and vote? Yes I support that one and that is where she will win by a country mile Democracy is about a lot more than voting every so often. It includes things like debates and opposition. You know, those inconvenient things that get in the way of absolute power. And because I was interested I even looked it up: "Democracy consists of four key elements: (a) A political system for choosing and replacing the government through free and fair elections; (b) The active participation of the people, as citizens, in politics and civic life; (c) Protection of the human rights of all citizens, and (d) A rule of law, in which the laws and procedures apply equally to all citizens" Funnily enough (d) is also probably unpopular amongst those claiming to support democracy. You remember those pesky "enemy of the people" judges right? And don't even start me on (c)! Next time I hear any Brexiter bang on about democracy I'm going to laugh in their face. Why? And you talk about democracy then had to google what it was??
Who would check facts before stating an opinion, I must be a loser.
Correct
Sums up your approach to facts I suppose.
I apologise, I'll just make stuff up in future. Maybe then you'll believe it.
What, like TV debates are a tradition?
Debates in general are.
True, which is what she does all the time and why she will be elected with a large majority. I think maybe you're confusing debates with slanging matches, which is what televised 'debates' usually sink to
You said Theresa May does it all the time debating ? Do you mean in the House of Commons ? She does with Corbyn but she does not with the SNP leader
My opinion she is shite feart to debate with Nicola as she will have to answer hard questions that the public will see and call her out for not answering.
Empty chair seems the best way and we then can see Theresa May is coward to go infront of a camera to debate all leaders not just Corbyn.
Remember 2015 when Cameron said on live tv no child tax credits and then win the election and thats what the Tories were planning on doing thats why its important to have tv debates to keep these assholes to account of what they say and face all leaders and face the public when the public in the crowd in where they are holding the debate can get to ask questions to all leaders why do people think Theresa May should get away with no answering questions that she may not like ? Simple answer she is coward and she wont have her wee Tory pals by her side to clap and shout out Here here here here outdated pish!! thats sad in 2017 MP's that represent the people shout out here here here here.
Mrs May does debate with the leader of the SNP in the Commons. She is courteous as with all MPS when answering Angus Robertson's questions at PMQs.Such confidence in a woman who lacks the ability to take on corbyn.Jesus titty christ anyone on this forum could debate him.This story will run on and on upto June.That knackered old goat knows she'll be butchered. . "And the real problem with that is that while all the opponents are busy calling her a coward they are not addressing the biggest question that could persuade at least 48% of the voters, many who would normally vote Conservative, from voting for something else. There is only one issue that will either make or break this election for the Conservatives and that's BREXIT. Don't waist time on anything else. | |||

I can't stand Sturgeon either but just because I don't like or agree with her does not mean she's not an effective leader. Whether she's better than May is questionable but she far out classes Corbyn for sure. | |||

When you look at how the EU referendum went on a constituency by constituency basis then Leave would have won by a landslide. "I think you're absolutely correct. There is little point in UKIPers and BREXITers voting for any other party except Conservative in constituencies where the Conservatives are either incumbent or stand a good chance of winning. So they will pick up those votes. However that doesn't change the point that, if you don't want BREXIT your best bet is to vote for either the LibDems where they are strong or whatever other candidate from any party that has the best chance of winning and prepared to stand on a pro-EU anti BREXIT ticket. | |||
