If you asked 1 question on question time, what would it be?

[the truth]

?????????????

[Mystic Mock]

Will the Tories let the Media stop favouring them so we can get a true reflection of how the public feels?

[waterhog]

I would ask ? how has any politician got the front to come onto a show like this and defend what you stand for and not be ashamed of themselves .

[Kizzy]

Why the frig were junior doctors not brought up at PMQs today?...

What is your favourite colour?

[user104658]

Will you take the blue pill, or the red pill?

My question now would be for as to 'why the UK voters could not be asked in a referendum as to the future of Trident'.

I just think it would be good to take the temperature of that with the population and see if they think it should be fully replaced, reduced, changed or scrapped.

Instead of the Politicians arguing on this, just ask those who they ask support from in the first place,outside of a general election.

They wouldn't dare, personally I don't think they would get the support they wanted, excellent question Joey.

I actually do think this is a very suitible referendum question, given that it is replaced every 25 YEARS (five times each parliamentary term) meaning it ultimately depends on who is elected at the time, which is unfair and undemocratic. A direct referendum on this would be the best way to decide by far.

Any government in power is free to cancel or amend the program as they see fit, so its not really a 25 year decision. its something that can be under constant review. That's what governments are elected for, to represent the people.

Since Trident is such a big issue though, one which extends beyond party politics, I really feel like a referendum is more appropriate. There are people across the political spectrum who are opposed to nuclear weapons, and those few anti-nuclear tories won't have their voices heard on this issue because their party leadership are in support of them.

It's an issue more important than the EU too, imo.

From a fiscal point of view, our 40 year membership of the EU has cost this country many times what Trident has cost and with far more damage too.

What are bollocks?

Naa I'd ask when are the government gonna start caring about youngsters

Well, that is subjective. I think the EU has done wonders for bringing together a war-torn Europe and is well-deserving of it's Nobel Peace Prize. Not only that, but I think the EU is a great organisation which allows for us to think beyond borders which is so important in the modern world. Studies show that we are far better off within the EU than out if we think in fiscal terms alone. The social benefits are subject to opinion, and in mine I think that it is a brilliant union which brings Europe closer.

I would ask about these new snooping laws they are trying so desperately to push through.

Do you honestly believe the public are going to be happy about having their personal private data, including their medical records, stolen from them without them ever being aware? and retain that information for up to a year? If this is a law to stop terrorists, why is Theresa May now suggesting it could be used to catch benefit fraudsters? Where does it end? What is this really about?

I'd say the medical information will be sold to insurance companies so they can identify high risk areas for different ailments, in preparation for the end times.

I went there last night, interesting experience. Dimbleby is one suave hip cat fair play.
It was really an interesting experience to see how much theatre and performance is involved. Farage was as usual the best performer. I was unimpressed with Stephen crabb he was just waffling away. Leanne wood marginally better than usual. Ramesh to comedian was ok, carwyn jones had a bad night. The question I submitted, which wasnt asked sadly, was why has the welsh government allowed 1000s of public land to be sold at way below its market value? (sometimes 20 times below) welsh labour got away without scrutiny again as it was tory bashing time and Europe bashing. But come election in June, it will be welsh labour bashing.

Possibly but they will do so by saying they are looking for disability scroungers.
I can't believe some people think this policy is a good idea. :conf:

[the truth]

dimbleby said beforehand they were only taking main questions from women, because the panel had 4 men, strange but true

I unsurprisingly agree again with all you say above Josh.

I am glad you like the referendum as to Trident too, the Parties at Westminster are divided it seems on the Trident issue.

Labour was always going to look at it but were in favour of its renewal although not necessarily the whole 4 content.
The Conservatives were in favour of full renewal although Michael Fallon on a daily politics programme would not commit to the Conservatives supporting a Labour minority govt bringing a vote to renew Trident.

SNP and PC were against Trident.
Even UKIP was not totally enthusiastic as to its full renewal.

In light of that with over 63% of those voting,, not voting for the Conservative party, then as you say it should be something looked at party politics aside, and one way to ensure the right way is taken is to ask the voters straight in a referendum, with the choices and get at least the temperature of their thinking on this big issue too.

The last labour government already sold all that information to the highest bidders, The horse has already bolted

Under what legislation?

Under what legislation?

under they sold what ever they could to fund their vast over spending legislation

They had also arranged to sell ALL the medical data from the failed national medical database to foreign countries before the tories pulled the plug on it.

Which studies?

Better off being in the EU - how? In what ways?

"Think beyond borders" is all too vague Josh.

What exactly does that mean?

What 'Social Benefits'? For Whom?

That would have been against the data protection act so highly doubt it happened.
The tories were the white knights in this scenario?...Yep now I'm really skeptical :laugh:
