Never watched it before today, will never watch it again after the segment on New Start and unemployment generally.
If panel members can't stay on topic and keep personal opinionated sarcasm away from the debate, then don't invite them back. Don't invite Val Badham back. She is so obviously a labour lover she cannot look equally at both sides of politics...educated and seemingly intelligent but lacking in political balance. Maybe she just doesn't like Amanda Vanstone, ex-liberal minister who does know her stuff. So very rude.
And I thought the job of the interviewer was to keep debate on track...# asks good questions but doesn't keep her guest on track.
