    As per a user suggestion, I'm putting up a poll about the ITV leaders' debate of 19 November 2019.

    We sat again for an hour and a half discussing maps and figures and always getting back to that most damnable creation of the perverted ingenuity of man - the County of Tyrone.

    Im recording this on my Free To Air Satellite Box, so i will attempt to compress and upload for those users that cannot view the debate - this may take some time but i should be able to do it tonight

    I will let everyone know when this is done. I suspect i wont be able to post this on Youtube or a video hosting site but it should be possible to do a download on a hosting site - Size will be issue so quality will be very basic (no Ultra High Definition Surround Sound im afraid!)

    This might not be a good idea. There may be legal or copyright issues. I'd say ITV will stick it on Youtube anyway once it's done.

    Ok understood - my understanding was that as it is broadcast in Free to Air, that is unencrypted to anyone in reception range, means it should be kosher like sharing a VHS - but i understand - i will record and compress and we will see if it ends up on Youtube

    And if not then perhaps it can be shared via another medium if possible - no wish to cause trouble:o

    I genuinely don't know. Might be best to err on the side of caution and it's likely to end up on Youtube with better quality anyway. Awfully considerate of you, though.

    Johnson's tie carefully lined up 3 degrees off center. Hopefully something actually comes out of this.

    Is there something funny about Corbyns (my left his right) eye? or are the glasses tilted?

    Why did I turn this on. They're both awful. It's not going to change anyone's mind. As usual, I think Corbyn is slightly less awful as I don't think he's a fundamentally nasty, self-interested person, unlike Johnson.

    Absolutely disgraceful and disrespectful to voters.

    He has been asked 4 times - and, like the politicians he condemns, he REFUSES to answer the question.

    Shameful!

    Corbyn looking like an absolute fool here.

    BRILLIANT sucker punch on the NHS -

    dodged answering on whether he is leave or remain but for me

    its first round Corbyn - by an inch but still

    Corbyn really should have a better answer for Johnson's obvious question. If he won't take a side explain why that is.

    Why can't Corbyn just say which side he will fall on. It's crazy hearing him repeat that mantra 4 times, it's meaningless.

    Johnson is exploiting Corbyn's weaknesses a bit better.

    The audience need to be told to stop applauding or this debate will be about which side can clap the loudest and longest.

    Johnson performing far, far better than Corbyn so far in this debate.

    Why do they insist on live audiences. It always end up with a clapaton between sides. It's nonsense

    He is much better debater but seems to be a debate that will not shift much opinion.

    Corbyn doing well enough.

    Corbyn destroyed Johnson on the NHS. If the NHS isn't on the table, Johnson wouldn't be having metings with Trump about it. He is.

    The NHS is very much on the table, and the Yanks will demand their pound of flesh.

    In response to Corbyn's stance on a Brexit referendum, it's pretty simple. He negotiates the best deal possible without the Tories' insane red lines and lets the people decide.

    Listen to Johnson here talking about the border under his deal.

    An utter bluffer who speaks out both sides of his mouth depending on who he's speaking to. He's speaking to the nation tonight and hasn't a clue what to stay.
