PMQs - Corbyn-style
« on: September 16, 2015, 07:05:39 PM »
As you may have heard, Jeremy C chose to ask questions perporting to be from members of the public at today's PMQs.  Much has been made of this and it hs been called a new idea.

What is new about it?  Surely any Leader of the Opposition should be asking questions that the public are asking - which they and their advisers could discover by listening to the electorate at weekly or whatever surgeries?

What's new about it?

Who has done it before? When?

Shaker, surely any Opposition leader will be asking the type of question of the Pm that his supporters aroud the country will be asking.  I know that acknowledging the source of any given question is new, but the principle is just the same.

So there's the answer then - nobody at no time previously.

Knew we'd get there in the end.

Oddly enough, my previous post effectively repeated what I'd said in the OP.  Perhaps you can now tell us what your posts where hoping to achieve?

Eliciting an answer to the question posed in the OP, which we now have.

Sorry, Shaker, all you have done is reiterated the context of the question - you haven't answered it.

You asked what's new about PMQs as of today, and you answered your own question.

Which part of this simple process are you struggling with, exactly?
