Snap Verdict: What the gently caress was that shite. Seriously, it was like the shittiest hour long 'gameshow' I've ever seen.

Let's have some audience participation! Heckle, clap constantly! Softball all the questions are remove any possible nuance.

I am annoyed.

Well that was a shitshow pretty much all around, Corbyn did well in the back half and Johnson overplayed his Brexit hand I think but that was a lovely event in a lovely format with lovely questions tbqh

But gently caress the people groaning at the idea of poor people suffering from climate change.

One oval office did a hammy laugh after people openly laughed at Johnson. Calm down.

yeah people are dumb and yeah it wasn't jezza's best ever performance but he got some solid hits in and he came out of it on top - even if only by a small margin. That's a net positive.

Yeah, my previous opinions stamd. Not the best by our boy, but he did get some seriously good hits in- the anti semitism, austerity and quickfire responses really shone. Shame he lost his rag slightly in the first half.

But Boris seemed to be less popular, despite at least one loud heckler on his side. Much less applause it seemed, and the crowd got really tired of his brexit stuff.

That debate was utter trash.

Bit of a shame really because we needed a clear win to start turning around the polls, and not whatever the gently caress that was.

78% to Corbyn after 17k votes, I'm sure Twitter has a younger crowd, but gently caress the sour-faced doubters. Corbyn was the only human on that stage

Corbyn absolutely "won" that by a mile, but it was a pile of wank overall.

That being said, expect to see Corbyn roasting Joris with the Xmas present answer on Gogglebox this Friday, that and Joris getting repeatedly jeered is all anyone will remember by next week

For a large portion of the country the TV debates coming on in the place of whatever bullshit they were trying to watch is probably the only political exposure they will get.

If only Corbyn had answered '"it doesn't matter how I vote" and kept his cool in the first half, I think I'd be a lot happier. He killed it in the second.

The reaction I’m seeing elsewhere among people who are not Corbyn fans is that Johnson embarrassed himself and Corbyn won. This thread is the only place I’ve seen meltdowns about how Corbyn did.
