Perhaps Newsnight were trying to make amends for that appalling referendum panel, but this panel was remarkable for the good sense on display, refusal to be cowed by the continuing Project Fear (as assiduously promoted by the BBC) and generally pro-Brexit or "let's get on with it" attitude. <br /><br />Was it a fluke? If anything I would say pro-Brexitness on display was probably a little over the top in determining the mood of the country. But I am not going to complain about that given the 9,745 instances of BBC Bias towards Remain! :) <br /><br />It was a pleasure for once to see the country I actually know and love reflected on the BBC - good humour, resilience, politeness and determination.

"If his part...Babis is painted as a bad dude.<br /><br />"If his party secures a majority, it is not known who Mr Babis will seek to form a government with." from http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-41691098 strikes me as odd unless the writer was so wrapped up in sign posting 'Babis bad' that they let their proof reading slip?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-88493371179922710812017-10-21T10:01:25.690+01:002017-10-21T10:01:25.690+01:00No. No. Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550976834509947355noreply@blogger.com
