Robinson was a disgrace when he interviewed Farage. Continuous interruptions and not letting him finish his answers. What a contrast to how he treated Starmer. More BBC bias.

[@alastair4839]

I just finished the Farage one - and was thinking the same thing.

[@largesmallgarden7648]

Yes same conclusion

[@glenncourtney8960]

He does interrupt him multiple times, e.g. 9:55

[@dainfarley9057]

Thing is though Nigel handled it well and shows you just how tough he is to take the bias crap and stay calm and also smile and joke a little. what you need in a leader is that resilience, if any of the others would have had the same treatment they would have flustered but they were allowed to talk and reply properly not being asked a question over a question with no time to reply properly, as always no respect for Nigel, but a damn lot of the people in this country do respect him and hopefully that shows in the election results.

Having watched both this and the farage interview, I''m appalled at Nick Robinson. The Farage interview was condescending and full of personal attacks. He asked for answers but it was obvious when farage made a good point he just quickly moved to the next attack.

[@richardw7959]

Get off your arses and vote R E F O R M! Neither Starmer nor Sunak deserve our support.

[@user-qf1zg4zz8j]

Starmer: "Country before party"............ but which country did he express his unqualified support for?

[@jake751]

APARTHEID ISRAEL

[@alastair4839]

Sounds more like "Party before country" - he is changing his policies, not because he believes in them, but because they keep losing elections - so they just swing wherever the votes lead rather then stand on any ideals. So now they are just scooping up all the votes that the cons lost for being a bunch of incompetent fools. .... i.e. they would sell their mothers for an extra vote.

I've got a magic wand, it's called higher taxes on the very wealthy and an increased capital gains tax. As of may 2023 70% of the country supported that and also said they'd be more likely to vote for a party who did. He's moving away from the country towards his new investors.

[@goitcore]

@@maxwellboyne2770 But the wealth generated is being hoarded and "more productivity" will just result in more being hoarded by the super rich. Trickle down economics doesn't work and has never worked. Those proposed tax increases aren't about taxing everyone or even taxing the super rich to the hilt they're about bringing some kind of equalising force to the economy. Starmer's current tax plans will just lead to a continuance if not furtherance of austerity.

Why did Labour Lose. Was it not because KS and others conspired against Labour from within ?

[@user-lr7is7eu6q]

Nick is too busy rushing through the questions to find fault to respond intelligently to the answers, The interviewer is not the most interesting person in the room - Another example of someone who should be in the background chasing celebrity. Take a look at Micheal Parkinson if you want to understand how a proper interview should be conducted, You have to make your guest feel relaxed if you want them to reveal their true selves.

[@jake751]

When has starmer given an intelligent answer to any questions? My father was a tool maker/ my mum was a nurse 😂😂😂😂

[@jayjones1649]

IMO Labour will use first term will keep saying "...the mess we inherited" and that will likely be enough to secure a second term. They will use second manifesto to pledge single market and customs union to "achieve growth".

There are multiple interruptions of Keir Starmer during this interview and yet some commentators below state that there are none. Is that where the bias lies rather in Nick Robinson who I think has done a good job in all of his interviews of this type so far (i.e. they are biased against Keir Starmer and want to present him as getting an easy ride)? Far better then the TV debates which just let candidates prattle on without adequate challenge.

Not a hope in hell, you will NEVER get my vote Mr Stamer. You talked over Beth Rigby, practically ignoring her on the Sky debate. If you couldn't listen to her, why the hell would you listen to the public? You will at the moment but you NEED the votes, when you are in no 10 it will be another matter. You are no different than Rishi Sunak and this country needs change. Anyone who can see through the two main parties, needs to vote reform and get rid of you 'not fit for purpose' politicians.

[@englishincontext4025]

I agree with other commenters; Robinson is much more deferential in this interview and not interrupting continually like he did with Farage. Starmer says he's going to "change the planning regulations" which means local authorities will be permitted to grant permission for great swathes of our countryside to be built over - and building in back gardens. For the 'newcomers'. Robinson's stating that governments end up not doing what they said in their manifesto "because events change". Nothing to do with lying through their teeth, then?
