Him and Private Eye are the few journalists left who can be bothered to dig up an actual story. The rest of the media are too obsessed with whether Kate likes Meaghan or some other celeb gossip that's easy to print. Who do you blame most, the people that consume the gossip media or the hacks that feed it? I first heard the PO scandal on an episode of HIGNFY in 2020? so years late, I immediately subscribed to Private Eye.

Its something he continues to deny to this but there is ample evidence on the internet to prove he was indeed those people. Also there is a hilarious video of him being chased down by a journalist and struggling to escape from him while completely ignoring said questions.)

The reason Ian Hislop is so great, is that he really doesn’t care if he ever gets invited back on these shows again; he’s not trying to sell anything, or be Mr. Popular, and that frees him up to say what he really feels, and unequivocally point out when politicians, journalists, presenters etc, are lying, or just being thick as mince. If more journalists didn’t care about access, & were willing to be unpopular, in their search for the truth, it would make it a lot harder for politicians to get away with being such corrupt, lying arseholes; it’s because of the sycophantic client journalists, who avoid asking the difficult questions because they enjoy hobnobbing with the rich and powerful, that allow politicians to do basically whatever they want, and be pretty sure that they’ll probably get away with it. If the majority of journalists were more like Ian Hislop is here in these clips, we might have a functioning press that actually works on behalf of the people…if only.

It's not because they are Tories, Ian does this where and when justified, regardless of the party or the position they hold.

Ian is a national hero, deep admiration for his tenacity and honour in consistently challenging the injustice and deception that has taken hold in our governments, regardless of political persuasion. On the days I feel ashamed and depressed to be British, Ian always restores my faith

He probably wouldn't do it but he'd be ace as the top political interviewer on Newsnight. He'd make Paxman look like a teddy bear

It's concerning that the only effective opposition in this country comes from a satirical newspaper (private eye) and a fictional news correspondent ( Jonathan pie)

@@michaelgillman2505and he’d actually cut through what’s being said to hold people to account and to find out things. PaxMan never did. Paxman simply delivered punch and Judy that was rude, and illicited nothing but attracted viewers. He just bullied his guests. When he started doing newsnight interviews he forgot any journalistic ability he ever had. Terrible waste of tv time and money. Hislop however I think is admirable, capable, smart eloquent, and says interesting things and asks important questions whilst rhetorically holding people to account.

MPs and the government are here to serve us, we elect them, they are here to serve, we raise issues they go and enact, not after media pressure.

They only act in the best interests of their wealthy powerful friends who need to make more money. Most MP’s are snakes who I wouldn’t trust one bit. Literally ask an MP a question and they squirm out of it every time it’s sad.

That football ticket question should have been answered “No I’m sorry you can’t go because I’ve returned it to the people who sent it explaining it would be wrong to take this ticket as it could be construed by the general public that I’m open to bribes and backhanders! 🤔
