Anyone else watching the debate?
I'm not a conservative voter, but if I had to be, Hunt would get it.
Can't see why any Conservative would like Johnson in the top seat.

This debate is stuck on Brexit.
There are many other issues facing the country.
Hunt has been coached well - use the name of the person asking the question in your response, knowing full well that BJ never remembers a name.
New Topic !!!
Personal Qualities.
Johnson sitting on the fence over the question of 'was Trump's comments wrong'.
Johnson sitting on the fence over the question "would the ambassador be kept on if you were prime minister".
Hunt says "yes".

Edit - Hunt says he was wrong to criticise May.
Ah, I see, the way Johnson will justify increasing the higher rate of tax is to say that "far too many, doctors, police inspectors and teachers are being dragged into the higher tax bands", there by giving tax cuts to the very rich.
Is wearing a red tie a mistake by BJ?
Hunt is wearing a blue one.
That was hilarious, BJ fires a question at Hunt and asks for a 'yes or no' answer. Ironic as he has avoided answering any of Hunts 'yes or no' questions. Many of them.!!

Yes, if they had stopped playing politics all this would be done and dusted by now !
Hunt is answering questions.
BJ Not.
Hunt is winning this for me - but this thing could have been a foregone conclusion from the outset, which is a pity.

Bulldozers BJ, Bulldozers
BJ can't even pay a lighthearted compliment to his opposite number. A simple and not difficult question.
So, we are on a 'hamster wheel of doom'. 
TFTC Baz. 
Hunt won that 
Round 1 over.
Boris has just blatantly lied.
I know what he answered an the ITV programme and he is trying to say something else.
Come on Andrew - keep digging, get under his skin, he is likely to crack.
It's amazing how BJ now criticises people who can't offer up a Brexit leave date - funny, when shoe is on the other foot and he is asked about something needing a definite answer he waffles on, and on, and on, but never answering the question. Hippocrit
BJ talks a lot about a new spirit, optimism about getting a deal, but no hard facts on how>!
Johnson just slags off Neil for not knowing the facts, then is asked about paragraph C and he admits he does not know. Not a thorough understand of Gatt 24 then.

No
Heās getting creamed
Hi Baz.
I have no idea which way it's going to go except for everyone seems to think BJ has the job, but on the two shows I have seen Hunt comes across much better.
Baz posted:I missed Hunt EC , how did he do ?
I missed the first 15 mins, but although more flustered than I have seen him, he was not as flustered as BJ. Neil has tested him and I think Hunt is still coming off better.
