A Jolly Good Fellowes?

Much of what Lord Fellowes had to say on Question Time was very interesting.

But out of six people behind that desk, one was in receipt of the Conservative Whip in the House of Lords, another was a Conservative member of the Cabinet, and a third was David Dimbleby. Even a fourth was also a Minister.

In addition the host (Day, Sissons, Dimbleby), Question Time has always had a Two Tories Rule, one a politician and the other a journalist. But this really is getting out of hand now.

  1. Any Questions? David Davis, Conservative MP; Rachel Reeves, Shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury; Matthew Parris, former Tory MP, and Jeremy Browne, Minister of State at the Foreign Office. Where's the balance? Regards Jeff Pollitt
