I find the fawning over the audience by the press and idiots like Owen Jones depressing this morning. Wonder if anyone will call them out for the bigots they are...

I was surprised to see him say that. Apparently it's more important for politicians to be afraid of the public, than for the public to be educated and informed.

It turns out the marketing woman was a Tory plant - she gave Osborne the thumbs up in the "spin room", she started her company with a Tory mp, she's a member of the Leeds conservatives and she even signed the small business letter to the telegraph - and she applied to the QT audience as an undecided voter

This has more details. Apparently that younger woman that was also hugely argumentative is also a Conservative supporter who applied as 'undecided'.

His properties are awful, falling apart wrecks that he lets people move into and then jacks up the rent for, then he employs strong armers to get his money. Yet hes just the right side of legal to get away with it.
