If you have been impressed by the way that Tim Farron has responded to the slough of nastiness, prejudice and general not getting it that was the Tory Party conference, you can watch him tackle the Tories (and the SNP) in person tonight.

I have long since given up watching when Melanie Phillips is on for the sake of my health and sanity. However, tonight, I will hide all hard objects (to protect my tv screen) and watch Tim talk sense. He has always been very good in that sort of environment.
Do come back at 10:30 and join us in our open thread during the programme.

Patel and Farron…Hopefully there will be ‘fireworks’
Melanie Phillips! Wonderful! I look forward to a bit of a Phillips demolition job!
Damn it I have to put up with the awful Patel and the dreadful Phillips in order to watch Tim š
Still a net gain, Peter:-).
That’s actually a good panel to showcase Tim. He will be the voice of sensible progressive thought.

Good luck….. Let the battle commence,

I shall look forward to hearing someone take her on properly for once. Come on Tim š
