Watched him on question time tonight and to put it blunt felt he was embarrassing ,sat there like a wee moose most of the night and got ripped and looked out of his depth even from a so called comedian . Hellish performance.

I didn't think it was hellish overall but he spoke for 2 minutes on Syria without saying anything. Knowing the Syria vote was to be discussed they really should have had Angus Robertson on has he provided the real voice of opposition in the HoC on this matter with Cameron unsurprisingly failing to answer his questions.

That "comedian" was hopeless as well. The program as a whole is poor nowadays, very much the reserves playing these days with rare appearances from old pros like Ken Clarke, Roy Hattersley et al

He was a flat as a wet lettuce.

Not very inspiring to be honest.

If he had sung his lines he might have sounded better.

It was originally a contemptuous term used by lowland Scots about Highland Scots to show their contempt for folk who they regarded as less sophisticated and more Catholic than them. I couldn't paste the wiki definition, I'm sure you can look it up. In modern times, it's a routine mildly offensive term for country folk in general, which generally does t cause that much offence. The original poster who used the term seems to feel Pete Wishart is also a male prostitute, which might have confused matters.

Pete Wishart has no charisma, don't know if he's overly intelligent but having charismatic charm is a big part of politics. He hosted the independence discussion in the Sally and was basically Alex Salmonds warm up. He stumbled and stuttered  through what he had to say. Now like or loathe Alex Salmond he has in abundance what Pete Wishart hasn't.

Have to say that Pete was nae worse than many of the clowns that are often on question time. A "Teuchter" is nothing to do wi' how far North you live. It's how little cosmopolitan the area that you live in is. Ie; hinterland, rural etc. Hence ,Perth, fine a city though it is & it truly is, far more sheepyville than Aberdeen. But hey! As long as you look after them tenderly boys. LAUGH OUT LOUD
