During last night's boisterous Newsnight discussion on electoral reform (AV) Kirsty Wark asked Eric Pickles 8 questions, Chris Huhne 6 and Peter Hain only 3. Fancy a BBC interviewer giving the Labour politician the easiest ride!
*
She interrupted Eric Pickles 5 times, Chris Huhne 3 times and Peter Hain only once. Fancy a BBC interviewer giving the Labour politician the easiest ride!

The resultant I.C.s were 2.0 for Eric Pickles, 1.3 for Chris Huhne and 0.7 for Peter Hain. Fancy a BBC interviewer giving the Labour politician the easiest ride!

Would that be the Kirsty Wark that Wikipedia describe as "regarded as being close to the Labour Party."? Would that be the Kirsty Wark that Wikipedia describe as being "a close friend" of "Donald Dewar, Scottish Labour politician and former First Minister of Scotland"? Would that be the Kirsty Wark that Wikipedia describe as becoming "involved in a controversy after she invited Labour MSP Jack McConnell, then Scotland's First Minister, and his family to stay at her Majorcan holiday home" Would that be the Kirsty Wark that Wikipedia describe as "controversies have led to questions about her ability to behave impartially."?
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine any close friend of a senior Conservative politician being allowed to present a News program and interview politicians from an supposedly impartial position?
And the same Kirsty Squawk who, together with her husband Alan Clements, a TV executive ,were investigated by the police for " industrial espionage " some years ago.
ReplyDeleteCan't remember the result, but , up here in Bonnie Scotland , they are die hard Labour supporters and ,of course, fabulously wealthy. Squawk claimed earlier this year that her annual income is less than £500,000. Poor dear.
Craig, please do not show a photo, it would put me off my porridge.
