Why are reform and this person getting so much air time? Time for a new chair of the BBC? #politicslive

Universal basic income instead of the majority of benefits would be a lot cheaper and equitable. #politicslive

State of the planet and it's already overpopulated. We don't need replacement rate. Also educated women usually want less or no children. Can't force us to have them. #bbcqt #keephandmaidstalefiction

what exactly is the point of denham on the panel or is it just to sow discord. we should have a tourism tax, why not? #politicslive

bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod… Gives context and history of how all the 'occupied' lands started. doubt Melanie Phillips has watched it. She also thinks she holds the absolute truth which doesn't exist just versions of it. #politicslive

Shops could protect their staff by not stocking fags, vapes etc #politicslive

#PoliticsLive would love to know what the tory guy on the end of the panel does of value to society and what he earns for it. Banging on about improvement in jobs where they've been underpaid for over a decade...

#politicslive Or pay WORKERS like football stars and watch the country's productivity sky rocket! Not difficult. Also should cap the top earners wages. Private Eye's figures on how much water company bosses are paid are ridiculous - especially for their failure.

Today everybody agrees Thatcherism has been an unmitigated failure.. #pmqs

Why are there not corporate clawbacks of millions of pounds in bonuses or theft from the customers of the water companies that haven't been providing the service. Why don't they lose the contracts? Appalling and mostly foreign owned companies. Brexit anyone? #politicslive

Applying findings of previous enquires (which seem endless and accomplish nothing) would be a far better way to spend scarce resources. How much do enquiries cost? In terms of money and LACK of good outcomes. #politicslive

Ralph Fiennes - 'the real reward for the actor is getting the job' on his oscar nomination.

Resurfacing roads is the only way to fix potholes. patchwork just makes them worse and more frequent #bbcqt

Much rather pay everyone that needs paying proper wages instead of spending ridiculous sums on 'consultancy' companies - we can't afford them but still they get extortionate contracts paid. #bbcqt

Or they could just let out people that are innocent. Miscarriage of justice is huge #bbcqt

Everyone should be in work but all jobs must be replaced by ai where possible and where impossible too. And bring in more consultancies, especially those who've previously failed/been fined. #wastingtaxpayersmoney #politicslive

what's wrong with paying more tax and having a great quality of life where everything works properly and wages are decent. Why is there yet another iea rep on there? #politicslive

how can someone who 'advised' truss of all people be taken seriously? #politicslive

Nvidia and OpenAI are driving an increasingly circular AI investment frenzy. But if the momentum falters, the UK’s increasingly entangled tech sector could be pulled into the fallout. Full story by the Eye’s new business columnist ‘Gold Digger’ in the latest issue.

“What the hell kind of Christian is this guy anyway?” From the new Private Eye, out now.
