Have a look here and try and see how they came to that conclusion because I can't:

And what does the graph mean ? Voted for that party, am a member of that party - how could they possibly tell ?
The problem with that twitter feed is that is borderline fake news in places.

@bbcquestiontime releases an infographic on 13th Sept 2018 showing a previous breakdown of panellists to announce the new series of question time.
A few hours later on the 14 September @BBCBrokenNews release their own, all figures are the same except the headers UKIP and other panellists has been swapped, colours and the date changed.
What a remarkable set of coincidences on identical figures separated by 15 years........double LOL

The result upset the clown who created it. Then he resigned to spend more time with his money.
I don't like Corbyn and you need to take you blue-tinted specs off
I agree with you Harry about Cameron. He walked away when he didn't get the result he wanted. Sorry Harry I just can't vote for labour anymore no matter who's running them. Like you, I don't like corbyn either.
Would you vote for him? Genuine question.

What a prick that fellow is, shitty speech with lines nicked from other historical speeches!
Yes, that's my point.

Yes, I know, but the QT breakdown is interesting. It's often been commented on NSC, that the panel is unrepresentative especially when UKIP don't have any sitting MPs whereas Green has one.

Listening to LBC this morning, not one person who phoned in agreed with Corbyns ideas, it says it all really. You would think Labour would have changed by now, they have got worse.

Hard to agree with them on everything, some crack pot stuff, but given a binary choice between Labour and the Tories right now, I'd go Labour and I've never voted for them in my lifetime
Yes the Tories are that bad, wait for next week, should be fun...

No surprise that the producer of that LBC phone-in selected anti-Corbyn callers to go on air. LBC has been run by Tory sympathisers for years. Is there anyone left who really believes we get unbiased political output from the big corporations?

When you have a private income, the money is nothing, but the power is the ambition. See Boris.

Rebecca Long Bailey on breakfast news quizzed repeatedly on Remain option on People's Vote, she had to be asked 3 times and conceded it was there, albeit thru gritted teeth.

Nick Ferrari does pretend to be even handed, but he hates the left
For some. You said "Most politicians are in it for themselves" - I think that most are the complete opposite. Most have no hope of reaching the top of the political ladder, and have no ambition to get there. They work mainly for the benefit of their constituency, whilst retaining some regard for the country as a whole.

Labour leadership may be playing a blinder (we'll see):
'For Corbyn and his team, Brexit is not about just leaving the European Union. It is about how working class voters, largely in towns and communities across England, felt the control they had over their lives has been taken away from them over the last forty years, in particular under the Thatcher and Blair governments'

not really, depends how many understand the implications, costs and consequence of their policy. example, my missus whos a bit of floating voter, asked last night if Corbyn came to power which country we should move to.

I suspect plenty of people understand it well enough.
They certainly understand very well who the current government represent and work for.
example,
.
Corbyn’s nationalisation policies, monstered by Conservative HQ and in the Tory press, are consistently popular with voters. A YouGov poll found 54% of voters back Labour’s new share ownership policy, with just 17% opposed.

scary.
I'm amazed that 71% of people can understand it enough to form a judgement. I've worked in the employee share plans industry, and I'm not sure I get it.
