    Any "Portillo Moments" For You?

    Nothing can really compare with Portillo in 1997, but seeing that evil scumbag Nick Griffin humiliated was wonderful

    Jacqui Smith probably comes second this time - the BBC had a shot of her as she left the platform and she was clearly on the verge of tears. I wouldn't normally promote the idea of broadcasting images of anybody reduced to tears, but in this case it's a politician. Serves them bloody well right for doing it to us

    No but watching Ed Balls going on about how he wasn't providing one was particularly irritating.

      That did suck if you watched it - I switched back to the CUK tab and started this thread instead

                  Yep, that was the high spot of the night for me.

                  Obersturmbannfuhrer Jacqboots, you are dismissed.

                    What I found even funnier was that every News Report (BBC World) I've seen shows her leaving and makes pointed reference to:
                    a) She looks like she is about to cry....
                    b) Her Husband watches Pron films when she is away - and claimed expenses for them.......
