@jazzaoxon.bsky.socialBraverman did not like her views on "Englishness" being challenged, which happened on #BBCQT last week. Thought her explanations and argument unsatisfactory and not robust. Perhaps she shuldn't dip into topics where her thoughts and words are ill thought through.
@localnotail.bsky.socialSuella Braverman says doesn't think she's English even though she was born here.
She's performing for her xenophobic Reform UK base by presenting as a second class citizen of England.
On #BBCQT she said you couldn't be English unless you had several generations of white English heritage.
@eddieburfi.bsky.socialAbsolutely this. I wanted each member of the #bbcqt audience, one by one, to ask Suella Braverman to her face if they qualified as ‘English enough’ for her. Watching the absurdity and racism of her argument exposed and unravel in real-time to real people would have been worth the licence fee alone.
@boldrex.bsky.socialCan there be a more appropriate response to Suella Braverman's opinion on hopelessness than putting your head on the table? Haile Selassie #bbcqt
@iansgossip.bsky.socialI felt the pain for #olidugmore on #bbcqt last night. The final word on hope and he was trying to explain why and the point he was making about white English got taken away and we then got a political broadcast from Braverman. Never mind the fact she complained about the audience with 6 MP’s 😡

@bladeofthes.bsky.socialWe are just Germany in the 1930s instead of blaming Jews we are blaming migrants.
But they aren't responsible for Austerity, Brexit or the profiteering crisis.
@gerryhassan.bsky.socialThis is not an isolated occasion. This is Reform's politics of ethno-nationalism. Fiona Bruce has to ask Suella Braverman six times on #bbcqt whether you have to be white to be English. No answer as she tried to evade the question. Respect to Oli Dugmore for challenging her at the close of the prog.
@clickbaitwizard.bsky.socialIt's actually an entertainment programme. That's why there's an audience.
@tonytcclark.bsky.socialWow Suella Braverman certainly made people sit up and take notice #bbcqt!!

@fabian55.bsky.socialAfter Cruella’s epic performance on #BBCQT let’s revisit an earlier outing
@cgorf.bsky.socialThis #bbcqt comment from her is getting a lot of coverage but she was also complained about the state of police & prisons after she was was Home Secretary. Her whole evening was utter nonsense.
@chocoyumz.bsky.socialI just listened to #bbcqt and heard her bizarre comments. If i were ReformUK i’d be pulling her from the airwaves as she came across as completely redundant of any political policy. An awful example, as Bruce hinted, of someone who can only say what isn’t and not offer any clarity on what is.
