Abbott has every reason to be angry about Question Time. When that witch Oakeshott said Labour were miles behind the Tories in the polling it was false and based on one pollster only which is YouGov having the Tories 6 points ahead and in their last poll five points ahead. However other pollsters like Survation who nailed the last General Election have Labour ahead and YouGov’s average of all pollsters have Con at 38.6% and Lab at 38.8%.

So when Abbott said the parties were neck and neck she was right only for the useless Fiona Bruce to back up Oakeshott. I would expect the highly paid presenter to have done a modicum of research so either she was being biased towards Oakeshott or she was lazy and had not done her homework.

So the BBC reinforcing Oakeshott’s misinformation allowed that rag the Daily Express to then print about the “blundering” Abbott to satisfy the racists amongst their core white, elderly bigoted readership. Two white women getting it wrong and the black woman getting it right leading to the black woman being criticised for blundering by a right wing rag is not a good look.

I anticipate Bruce apologising to Abbott at the start of next weeks programme as the BBC tweet admitting they were wrong is simply not good enough.
