Trump left the Agreement as he wants to renegotiate with Europe on forming a new deal that would be favourable to US and US companies. Germany, France and Italy said yesterday that they would not agree to a renegotiation. The UK said nothing. May just said in private that she was "disappointed" with the developments. Whatever that means.

No. One of his biggest policies was to reject the Paris agreement. The US people voted him as president.
 
Stop this "no deal" shite. He'll make a deal with the SNP if he needs to and it's the sensible thing to do.
 
Social Care, Education, NHS and Foreign Aid were bad. She started off well.
Yeah I forgot to mention social care. On foreign aid, thought the questions were a bit dumb/selfish lead questions, so don't think she did that badly and it won't be damaging.
 
Thought May started well in terms of avoiding the questions and using buzzwords but didnt finish well at all.
Her biggest problem is speaking which is a worry if shes going to be PM.
 
Why would you start talking like you doubt you'll win the election, less than a week before the vote, when you seem to have the momentum?

He's not saying he won't win - it's a legitimate question to be asked what you'll do though if you win but don't have a majority. Denying there's any way that could happen is silly.
 
So you therefore agree with the Tory manifesto in that case?

Well I think that the tory lead is too great to be caught, and so Labour's objective to stop the conservative attempt to gain a greater parliment majority. And so, if Corbyn succeeds in this, Theresa May will be so weak in her position, it may lead to a leadrrship challenge, and will throw brexit into chaos because there will be more MPs in opposition to tough negotiations.

There's a higher chance of them getting into a coalition with the SNP than the Lib Dems. And they'd be right to do that. But it hurt them in England in 2015. So they'll not be saying it openly. The crucial thing is to ensure that they are the largest party after the polls.
 
Really? Thought he nailed that business question and he's doing well linking it to education.
Probably because it's focused on areas I think he's poor on. Thought he pontificated on the coalition question, I don't like his stance on Brexit, and though I like the focus on education, he didn't seem to show any understanding of the worries of the small business owner.

Aye, probably. Still feels silly for them to deny it when we know it'd happen, though.
 
hehe - if the audience at Cambridge was super Lefty - which it was, I'm thinking the Tories have drilled their mob pretty well for this one.

Some great questions coming in.
 
There's nothing worse than these nuclear war questions. Shut the feck up you eejits, we'd all be dead.
 
Corbyn went on a strange tangent on that nuclear question.

Should have been a simple answer.
