PMQs: Harriet Harperson trashed by William Hague, part2 (03Mar10)

[BigWilki123321]

The response from 0:28 to 2:25 was woefully inadequate

[mrgarlicbread100]

sterling has nothing to do with bonds Harriet.... Brush up on your economics love.

[EddieExile]

Harriet Hateman is more accurate

[EllyMcCormack]

"Man hating ultra feminist Harriet Harperson" lol bias much?

[MrBushWookiee]

The Pound's remained strong in the last two years and we haven't lost our triple-A rating when the USA and most European nations have. Regardless of if you think the Conservatives or Labour is the better option in government, you can't deny that our country is in a better position and has a stronger future with a stronger pound.

[berlinmitte10117]

Someone said that before she became a senior figure, at conferences she was a right bike!

[DMaddox2010]

AND ISN'T SHE CALLED HARMAN

[DuncanDis0rderly]

@DMaddox2010 It's a play on her name. She's not HarMAN or HarWOMAN but HarPERSON, you see?

[DMaddox2010]

ANY ONE SEE HIM ON HAVE I GOT NEWS FOR YOU

HE'S BRILLIANT

[Chinky2345]

Does anyone know where to find the transcript for this?

[WASPS1867]

i'm working class and would never ever vote for those marxist scumbag labour party tossers

[eddieoxford]

@WASPS1867 If you can mate. Read the political journal "Blue Labour" Its very true in how Labour are more right-wing and authoritarian than the Tories also at how they are willing to loose the traditional white class British vote in favour of ethnic minorities.

[mongolcopter]

Hey look it's ed milliband 7:59. He looks even more retarded than he does normally!

[triadchixD]

Mr. Speaker, the constant barracking and yaboo behaviour may portray British Politics badly, but I'm certainly not turned off by that. In fact it makes it all the more interest, seeing as all the important stuff happens beyond PMQs anyway!

[max31198]

Theres no quality in the labour party -  Maybe Dave Milliband.

[RJWooller]

It is Harriet Harman not Harperson and I don't think she would mind being called Harman.

[349quinman]

Glum faces on the Labour side...no wonder.

[RoofLight00]

Ouch, blimey. She was made to look stupid, thick, ignorant and a complete twat out of water. I dislike Tories as equally as Labour and Liberals, but that was painful, especially when he mentioned her husband who is some union leader. Smack! suck on that Harperson.

With goons like that in your cabinet, Labour will never win any more elections. Bonus.

[IlRezzonico]

Theresa May has been wearing that astronaut suit for years now, it must be a bit smelly

[sergeantfan3]

Tories are smug, arrogant, selfish, rich scumbags.

[TheBigScheme]

@sergeantfan3 I think you'll find that Harriet is also:

1) smug

2) arrogant

3) selfish

4) rich

5) a scumbag

......lol

[ritchieboyuk]

@sergeantfan3 and Labour are clueless, arrogant, lying, selfish, backstabbing, rich traitors! Socialism only works until all the money has run out!

[GoVir4l]

LOL@ Osbournes face@ 8:48

[jeremy1000100]

Harman is an intelectual lightweight by any standard, but up against Hague she comes across as unbelievably stupid.

[latimeralder1]

It is almost sad to see a person so far out of her depth.........

[Sres1]

It's such a shame that the conservatives where in such turmoil when he was leader of the party. Far better stateman than Cameron.

[bingowings65]

Unbelievable!

Harperson is utterly clueless on economic matters.

She doesn't know the difference between Government bonds and Sterling - incredible!

When will these people be made accountable for the disaster they presided over - when!

[nansir]

'Labour leader Ed Miliband will tell his party that it needs to accept there will be less money to spend if it wins the next election.' BBC News 2012.

What people don't get is that there will NEVER be enough money to spend to meet the needs of ALL the people. You see the Monetary system is reliant upon Scarcity. An item that is Abundant has no monetary value. Owing to advances in Automation and Technology we are now able to create Abundance. Re-visit your roots Mr Miliband. Re-read Karl Marx.

[DreadnoughtMetal2006]

"This house puts the highest value on integrity"?! This from a woman whose party fixed TWO general elections.

[MerckZ]

Oh she is atrocious!

[UnlimitedEconZone]

i think osborne has a problem when he starts to laugh

[MirHassanProductions]

@flare1108 thank you.

[MirHassanProductions]

Why do some back benchers stand up when someone finishes a speech?

[apache16789]

Mr Hague, brilliant.

[ShowPolitics]

Man hating ultra feminist - Can we have an apology from liarpoliticians?

[stainygog]

silly cow

[123HMatty]

typical labour  if in doubt blame lord ashcroft...

[jaylpp12]

anyones stupid to go up against hague is probably the most aware politician, labour never stood a chance

[usainlightning]

I missed the joke when the commentator says that Labour politicians are waving fivers at him. Can anyone make it out?

[vaux21]

@usainlightning i believe its to do with her husband and him buyin porn on expenses.....

[usainlightning]

@vaux21 That was Jacqui Smith's husband

[mavericksf16]

Hague is a very sharp bloke. A very sharp suit there too!

[pogsboo]

She Should be the leader of the labour Party....Just like the Rest...Thick as Fcuk!!!!!!!

[JackF15]

@pogsboo All of this coming from the utter fanny who can't spell the word "Fuck". Also, the word "should" does not start with a capital letter.

[jadeclark42]

Women in Power: Milestones, produced by Harman's equality office, listed 28 of the most significant events between 1907 and 2008 involving women on the political stage.

In this official document they curiously left out Margaret Thatcher, first female party leader, first female Prime Minister and longest serving PM of the 20th century. Shreela Flather however, the first Asian Labour peer, was mentioned twice; High level credibility Harriet!

[2490debrick]

Who the bloody hell is voting for Harriet Harmen she doesn't have a clue! She has no idea what she is talking about and as experience and credibilty is concerned she doesn't know anything about business, accounting or public relations! She just spends money like it grows on tree!!!

[Hazzatronic]

hate that stupid bbc commentator treating people like idiots we can watch for ourselves we're not stupid

[multimill]

Harriet Harperson should shut the fuck up. She is as pointless now as she was then.

[codownni]

FFS Harman spit it out, bercow sit your stupid little arse down.

[MrHewstoneW]

The Labour frontbench just look so clueless...

[Brezo18]

Call George Osbourne "inexperienced" all you like, Harriet, but the fact remains that in less than two years in government both he and William Hague have shown more guts and assertiveness than anyone in your weak and pathetic excuse for a political party showed in thirteen years.

[Damnblastify]

@Brezo18 Bollocks!

[weatherallc05]

have to give it to hague, hes done very well the last two years and i know that he will keep it up. this country needs men of pure hard work and committment like him. he just talks sense

[thenfm]

what a stupid cunt. lol... MANHOOD101. COM

[mjtvalfather]

I wish I could send Harriet Harman to Auschwitze as an inmate

[atlantichouse]

her own husband miraculously got through an all womens short list that she herself helped draw up - this woman is as bent as a nine pound note. she consistently argued 4 decades for the abolishment of academic selection for bright working class 11 year olds and there elevation into the gramma school system, thus condeming those intelligent kids to the mediocre comprehensive schools - but then, when her own kids came of age she sent them 2 selective school.. harman is a fraudster.

[alexanderhall1983]

Love the way her answer to everything was 'Ashcroft' which no one cared about. Shows how out of touch Labour are and were.

[IvanWanko]

@shanekeane200123456 Perhaps it is because they are only there for one reason.

[gagarottel]

haha Harriet Harman just embarrasses herself...

[bobbyladd]

I can't stand Harriet Harman. She's bad for Labour.

[timpovikings]

I do like HH.



Put her in heels and parachute webbing and you could have a very pleasant hour and a half.

[ginfan1234]

Can't believe the Labour party dare talk about integrity. Their government was the most corrupt we have had since the 16th century.

[zopyify]

It's always difficult arguing with bald people cause it's distracting.

[fuckyiuyiu]

what a dumb shrill old bitch. Like a headmistress with no education.

[LowleyUK]

How did Harman ever get a position in parliament, let alone deputy leader of labour. She would make a second rate manager of Tesco's.

[blackvapour]

@LowleyUK Feminism. Parties look good when they promote women into high ranks, irrespective of their ability. It's a shame that we know think equal representation is more important than ability.

[LowleyUK]

@blackvapour Yes well said, I think that's precisely the reason.

[eddieoxford]

Harriet Harman is a shit politician

[bluesgunner]

Our illustrious Speaker calls 'yah-boo behaviour' a 'turn off to the Public'. Fair enough, but has he considered that it is not tolerable or appropriate because of the high standards of the House? That it is disrespectful?

If our representatives are not respectful to each other, precisely who will be?

[Tokyorosebiz]

See what has happened to our Great Country Check Out THE PARTY OF SLEAZE by TOKYO ROSE

[TheForeverEngland]

Thank goodness the useless brigade got voted out. Now the rest of us are left with the Labour debt mountain. Thanks arseholes!

[123HMatty]

harman here shows typical new labour... why talk about the question your asked when you can talk about something populist and smear other people... shes not a politician shes just a school girl bitching on the playground...

[sushi81]

I pray to be born in the next life as a british citizen!!!

[slhstoledo29]

who are the three men in front of the prime minister?

[Angryification]

@slhstoledo29 The man in the chair yelling "order" is the Speaker [John Bercow]. The 3 people in front of him are 3 deputy Speakers

[j1mf1eld]

Yaa Boo no we like it :D

[gSiNsAnE]

Prime Ministers questions = WEEKLY THEATER :)

[gSiNsAnE]

Prime Minsters questions = WEEKLY THEATER :)

[dededefo]

Britain's answer to Sarah Palin. Total idiot

[THEKINGOFEUR0PE]

I'd do her

[imranquraishi2001]

please see carefully speaker hand he have Barclay bank free pen

[bonfirejovi]

A week sterling is not the result of a weak economy, it is the result of a money printer.

[bonfirejovi]

Oh ya, Blair and Brown were beaming with integrity. This woman has no oratory skills whatsoever and from what I can tell, has no policies that are worth a damn.

[charlesfisher757]

Harperson is weak, weak, weak

[kenfig]

@santino404 This Bald Cocksucker took Millions from dodgy 'businessman' Michael Ashcroft, who bribes nations into making him exempt from paying tax, in return for a peerage making him Lord Ashcroft on condition he made his residence the UK & paid taxes on his incomes ; he broke his promises by hasnt been stripped of his title.Also Hague takes a young man half his age on expensive holidays months BEFORE 'hiring' him ,all paid for by the taxpayer ; what a dodgy fucker he is eh ?

[dalriada842]

@kenfig Yet he is still on a higher rung of the evolutionary ladder than the man-hating beast, Harriet Harperson!

[cornishuk1]

Harman is way out of depth, she doesn't have either the intellect or wit to battle Hague, makes you wonder how she rose so high

[Wikkiter]

His voice does my head in. But He kicked Harman's arse, and I like him as a politician.

[Taramriel]

She is such a fucking idiot it's incredible, does she think we don't notice how she attempts to twist Hague's justifiable questions?! She fails and falls flat on her arse!

[crisp2882]

Harriet Harmen is a nasty peice of work.

[Taramriel]

@santino404

I dread to imagine what you are then!

[YAYOMUTA10]

is it me or do I detect Willam Hague and Harriet are going out!!!

[jeremytravers1]

Bloody commentary! The talked over William Hague's best line @ 7:44.

[OzzyFan87]

WTF is Bercow talking about that "constant barracking" is a turn off to the public? Thats what makes it great!

[trifio5242]

MORE OF THAT!

[jdfrusher]

Billy Hague consistently humiliated Harperson at PMQs during the last Parliament. He is by far the best Parliamentary combatant since Norman Tebbit and deserves one day to become Prime Minister,

[bonemailtanks]

@jdfrusher I believe he had a chance in the nineties.

[DG6985]

@bonemailtanks he did indeed in the 2001 election, but he lost to stinking Blair

[DumblyBrilliant]

Harman: "This House puts the highest value on the qestion of integrity." Right! So no one them will be stealing from the public purse then.

[steps1]

The line about Harman not supporting marriage in the tax system but definitely in the political system is pure brilliance (referring to the fact that her husband was parachuted into a safe seat in what should have been in an all-woman shortlist..something that Harperson usually supports..nice of her to turn a blind eye for her husband though)

She's useless..she does female politicians no service whatsoever

[morgansifer82]

She is embaressing, I could hardly watch her making a tit of herself (once again!) And as for John Bercow, he is such a jumped up prick - MPs should have removed him from the Speakers Chair when they had chance.

[shussey100]

She is a real man hater. Why do English women hate men so much.

[mrhenryleopard]

@shussey100 Because English men like real women who dont have deformed teeth.

[yogbert]

It was a shame he stepped down as leader as I feel he would have ripped labour to shreds in the election.

[slogan78]

Harriet Harman is utterly inempt (as always).

[MegaBilly52]

that shot the bitch down, what the fuck is she doing in politics, she should be at homecooking her mans tea and scrubing the kitchen floor.

[saelaird]

She couldn't handle it

[berlinmitte10117]

Surely there are better female candidates for senior female politicians than Harman? She is a walking disaster area who does female no favours at all.

[randombloke666]

HAHAHA!

I love to see a loony left like Harperson

(not Harman as it is sexist) getting owned by tories

[DJeXtenso]

Hague is boss. This is brilliant!

[Garciamrcool]

Could Hagues time come again?

He has matured most impressively

[Raven81455]

Is it too much to ask that Bob snaps and just rams her face into that microphone?

[awass1969]

Harmen taken to wearing skirts since her Dept said that it was discrimination to transgender people for females to wear skirts. Some say she acts like a fu**king Joke and is a disgrace to all people who still believe in the family.

Hague was not at his best but he still put this stupid woman in her place AS she pretends to be unaware that LORD PAUL is also a NON DOM.

[DankWin]

Watching Wm. Hague do PMQ is a treat. Thanks for the upload.

[ED999A]

If there are more jobs being created by what Harriet Harperson says, then they are being swallowed up by New Labours policy of a open door to immigrants.

Whatever happened to of 2007 words that Gordon Brown said British jobs for British workers.

[MODTRASH]

We are constantly reminded of what the Torie's didn't do instead of what Labour have done.

[worcesteradam83]

Nigel Farage would fit in here

[richiesherman]

Oh how I wish Hague was still the Tory leader

[pieface4475]

Rolf, Harman is lightweight compared to Hague.

Harman cares more about smearing than the state of the pound!

[express375]

Poor Harriet,it's like watching someone drown!

[britdog01]

So basically both parties are bought, so why isn't it. investigated, show how corrupt it all is ?

[liarpoliticians]

Don't forget the LibDems and their non-dom donor(s) they have too. Nobody is smelling nice out of this, which is why the Ashcroft saga is a nice sideshow for the other parties to hide behind.

[dylans8]

It ought to be a judge sat in the speakers chair . Most of them fiddled expenses ,They seem to be in it for what they can get out of it unlike the sadly departed Mr Foot who seemed genuine in his concern for others

[lfc185]

Labour have reduced PMQs to the most pahetic spectacle in the world of politics. For years now it's been about what the opposition is doing rather than what the government is doing. They get away with it particularly with this pathetic Speaker. saying that, it sure backfired on them today.

[Fleshious]

Poor Harriet. Very feeble.

[atwali]

Is she really the second best debater, after our dear leader of course, that Labour has to offer? Does she know anything? about anything?

[karuspery]

She knows a lot about stalinist principles and secret family courts and paedophiles.

[liarpoliticians]

They are all a bunch of "mass-debators" !

[scimg]

@liarpoliticians aka wankers

[TheForeverEngland]

@atwali - No, she knew nothing then, and still knows nothing....just more annoying.

[Blackbookz]

Thank you for the upload, sir.

[karuspery]

Isn't he a gem?

[youfatstinkypoo]

The euro didn't exist before Labour.

[karuspery]

I think most people will get my meaning but thanks for pointing out a neither here nor there fact.That was before Labour ruined the economy and trashed Britain.They have signed the Lisbon treaty so the Euro will come into effect in 4 years time. Batsrads either way.

What a peculiar yt name you have.

[youfatstinkypoo]

Either way, your pound was never worth two euros, it was worth 1.60 euro at its peak.

[karuspery]

Bull. I remember getting £1,88  at one stage.

[youfatstinkypoo]

You remember getting £1.88 from what?

One pound got you 1,64 euro in 2000 - that was the pound's peak. If you're saying you got 1,88 euro for 1 pound you're a lie or you went to a drunk bureau de change.

[BeetzartMusic]

Really? Because the Euro wasn't introduced into financial markets until 1999.

[karuspery]

You don't read very well,do you?

I deleted my comment because there are obviously die hard Labour Stalinists here.

[BeetzartMusic]

lolololol

You deleted your comment because you were wrong.

I didn't see your second comment but in response to that, there is no constitutional commitment to bring in the Euro as far as I know. If you have proof of your argument please post it here.

Oh and by the way, I'm a Lib Dem supporter currently - not a die-hard Labour supporter or a 'Stalinist' (which is a completely different thing).

[karuspery]

You are either very young or very naive or both.

I deleted my comment because it read wrong. Either way, Britain is stuffed.

Lib Dem? Worse than Stalinists. Satans own.
