Boris Johnson, Jeremy Corbyn, Jo Swinson and Nicola Sturgeon faced questions from a live BBC audience in Sheffield

Here’s advice to any prospective prime minister: don’t mess with Sheffield. Each party leader faced Yorkshire’s no-nonsense scrutiny. Some of the lines directed at Jeremy Corbyn verged on the surreal: one audience member suggested a politician who was a serial rebel against New Labour’s authoritarian assault on civil liberties was a threat to freedom. Another criticised him for backing Bolivia’s elected Evo Morales against a military coup.

The media has controlled the message for the past two years about Corbyn and now it is out of your control people are allowed to see what he actually stands for instead of you framing the debate, just as happened in the run up to the 2017 GE too

Surprised by the verdicts. No mention of yet another broken promise to WASPI women by Johnson. He failed to answer questions. It was not a good performance hence no ministers available for Newsnight.
