“I am determined that we can deliver a more progressive system without any more spending or borrowing” Labour’s Bridget Phillipson says increasing tuition fees is “unpalatable”, but does not rule it out #bbcqt

So, basically... more unfunded, ill-conceived, unachievable policies from Labour. Believe their ridiculous rhetoric and we'll all be royally screwed.

In Scotland we manage it because we have a gov that works for the people, not the shareholders...

How rude is the man sitting on her right - constantly talking over Bridget, interrupting her generally bullying with his big voice …. Why isn’t FB reminding him that it is her turn to speak - she’s a guest on the panel and to show some respect!

…hard to see what Labour have to offer, let alone change.

Answer the question, instead of dodging it

It would be a travesty if Bridget was ever in front bench! Her voice is so irritating and boy does she go on and on. The gentleman that challenged her to answer the questions, seems like a better bet for education minister🤣

Phillipson like most of the Labour candidates use Obfuscation .Unless they have their pre prepared statements they have nothing to say. Truth is Labour are #RedTories,no real change will happen just a new leader. Come on Scotland let’s use #independenceDayScotland for real change

They have no idea how they gonna fund anything. This is scary I know the tories are useless but Labour has zero ideas. The state of politics is desperate

Well she can keep her nose out of Scotland!!

Phillipson out of her depth tonight. Labour realising that shouting from the sidelines is easy but making deliverable policies is difficult. Philiipson has zero answers
