Oh look. Another cynical attempt to take Labour’s votes. Get stuffed Lib Dems. We know you’re treacherous slime.
Lies, lies and even more lies, it’s about time these people be whipped in the high street
They should be called liberal party. Because they dont seem to like a completely fair democratic vote…
I enjoyed it.
She’s disingenuousness. Look at her voting history, how she voted for wars, student fee increases, social care cuts over her political lifetime. Don’t vote for this fraud. Vote Labour or independent. Not this wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Hey, BBC we were all wondering why you removed the comments section under the prince Andrew videos!
Lib Dems attacking Corbyn sound so damn pathetic. God knows they’re as Bought & Owned as most Tories by corporations & billionaires.
This is a woman leading a party that advocates for abortion on demand and up until birth for any reason – if people have any moral decency then they’ll realise a vote for the Lib Dems is morally untenable.
bout time we adopted a cannada/californian style programme.
The most obvious Lib Dem pledge is to deny more than half the electorate their right to a vote.
The vote in this country was hard won. Trying to use less than 12M remain votes to win an election and over-rule 17M leave votes is the sort of thing dictators do in totalitarian regimes. No-one who believes in democracy should vote for this manifesto.
Thanks for the tuition fees increase by the way…
Why are all the main parties backing the climate change scam perpetuated by the Bias Broadcasting company and David Actorbore and designed to benefit the banks by charging us all for carbon taxes? The BBC is even using our licence money to promote the new world order agenda – BBC Radio 4 is running a Christmas special on its Today programme with the abused child Greta Thunberg and the Canadian Governor of the Bank of England NWO Mark Carney.
I was under the impression that interviewers were meant to keep their bias out of interviews. This lady is straight up laying into Jo and putting words into her mouth 🙄
Deluded Jo is Gambling every single policy on a 50 Billion BET she has no control over the outcome
LIB DEMS entire Manifesto is entirely based on EU saying Yes to LIB DEMS Revoking Article 50
If EU says NO LIB DEMS we won’t let you Revoke article 50 LIB DEMS will Loose every single policy as they won’t have the 50 Billion they banking on
Jo Swinson is BETTING the UKs future on a 50Billion to 1 BET she may loose on
Anything to avoid talking about opposing the biggest Democratic event in our history.
The interviewer is shit
Man what does the government not understand, us with mental illness are hurting out here and our only chance of getting through the day still sane smh
1 in 4 people who regularly smoke weed before they’re 18(or when fully developed) will get schizophrenia.
Jo Swinson is BETTING the UKs future on a 50Billion to 1 BET she may loose on
The BBC assessed the LibDems as having the strongest offer on the Environment except for the Greens £100bn p.a. Also, the strongest on childcare and stopping brexit, without which all spending plans fall apart in economic malaise.
I think Jo Swinson needs a "right proper rogering" as I believe you Brits say. Not by me, oh God no. But by someone. Wtf is this positively slavish hold the British monarchy has over its people? Come out and say "Andy is a pedo associating scumbag!" It’s also very interesting how BBC Newsnight’s interview with that Andy Windsor guy has its comments disabled. Yet they are enabled for every other video. This monarchy thing is an expensive, archaic and just plain democratically offensive institution. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. A "constitutional monarchy" sounds like an oxymoron. If the British people want to "take back control" they need to abolish the monarchy. Full stop. Then they need to abolish the House of Lords and start from scratch.
Torries are corrupt.
Pothead
Wanna hear a joke…
The libdems winning more than 15 seats
Why is the UK a super nanny state? It’s like the people in the UK are completely incapable of being grownups or being responsible for their own actions! So a whole country who never left their mom and dads basement! Stand on your own two feet as an individual make good decisions and take responsibility for the bad ones! Ridiculous people !
I really have no idea who to vote for. Its either Lib Dem or Labour but they both have their issues…
jo swinson is a tory
All teeth and tits
must remove democrats under trade description act as they do not believe in democracy so should be called liberals screw democracy the lsd party

Labour has not let anyone down. Lib Dems are the cowards, along with the Corrupt Tories.
Well improving the economy from within a non competitive contained single market and customs union leaves her no choice to Tax people, does it not occur to her the economy can pay for those things and more given half a chance? after all she’s just ignored a majority so why not Tax us as well. Really hard not to use foul obsene language listening to this pathetic crap, sounds like a 13 year old … no offence to 13 year olds. 8 minutes is like 4 hours.
People are a Country’s resourse not a Tax cash machine and the sooner MP’s who think they’re the Country’s resourse see it the better it’ll be for everyone.
Hang the royals
How much is it that her husband gets from the EU?
Lee Fiero, actress from "Jaws" 1975 (angry mother), demonstrated the actual appearance of Juliet Joslin’s bloodline ancestor Martha from the New England expedition. Juliet Joslin is the bloodline descendant of Hera, Ancient World Fixed Twin Soul of Zeus. Julian Casablancas is the bloodline descendant of Zeus. Juliet Joslin is the bloodline Soulmate of Adrien Brody; they are the registered descendants of Vulcan and Vesta. Julian Casablancas is the bloodline Soulmate of Marilyn Monroe; they are the registered descendants of Aphrodite aka Cleopatra I and Dionysus I.
Martha Joslin, Russian underworld operative, stole the Hudson Expedition inspired plans of Roslyn McCarthy Brewer for the famed "Martha’s Vineyards".
Cynthia Nixon demonstrated the actual appearance of Vesta. The bloodlines of Adrien Brody and Juliet Joslin ruled over a Sea Faring Community on the Isle of Crete as part of the Democracy-friendly Mediterranean. Vesta played the Flute. Their marked progress goes off-radar about 800 years ago.
The Joslin Family bought in on an illegal Russian underworld Oil deal in Alaska. This is the foundation of the family’s power.
About 700 years ago, while in a state of near-perfect purity, the bloodline of Julian Casablancas became an underworld target. The bloodline of Juliet Joslin was assigned to "pattern" to pertain to her Ancient Fixed Twin, for a faux reunion.
The patterning alone stole four Kings from the vocational lineage of Julian Casablancas.
In the err of unfounded blind faith, Soulmates Elizabeth Percy and Algernon MacLeod, ancestors of Marilyn Monroe and Julian Casablancas, "let in" the patterned reunion, which was unfairly an infiltration and sabotage plot.
The Family Circle of Gucci / McLeod was imperceivably broken by the displacement. An inability to manage the situation caused a downfall for Julian Casablancas. Deception and feigning take their tolls.
Upon parting ways, Ancient Fixed Twins have moved too far away from each other in the biological pool, to romantically pertain thus find themselves at cousin status.
Juliet Joslin feigns bloodline ancestors of Marilyn Monroe; Queen Fergus, Wendy of Switzerland.
Fergus designed and erected Big Ben with Soulmate King David. She resembled "Kelly Bundy".
Wendy helped revolutionize the Swiss Military with her #4 roster spouse. She resembled "Marcia Brady".
I know that waving your hands is a ‘powerful’ way to emphasize a point. And she probably learned this on some public speaking course. But to do so while making promises regarding tuition fees? When we know that she did this a few years ago and was actually lying. As the lib dems actually trippled tuition fees. This is why people are disgusted with the traitor political class. I hope the lib dems end up like the rest of us having earn money through honest means like decent normal people. These people need a dose of reality. For instance a job.
A ‘Brave New World’s soporific soma?-turn off, tune out, drop down?
Stop having children.. I have never seen a worse leader
Better in the eu .You are you mean judging the big back handers you’re husband gets from them
The only thing that spikes my interest in this party, but other than that, hmm not for me.
BBC just trying to smear Corbyn’s unbought, anti-corruption platform.
Seed our Future Cannabis campaign believe they have created a De facto Decriminalization in the UK
