    I hope the lady is ok.

    I sometimes feel a funny turn coming on when I hear the Abbotpotamus start to opine about stuff too.

    I too considered applying for the Colchester QT, but couldn't think of any interesting questions unfortunately!

    Ask how she's coping with her type 379 diabetes and if her autobiography will be called: "Diane Abbott - The Fact Hunt"

    "Could the honourable member for Hackney advise us why she is sitting on her elbow?"

    That should fluster the sanctimonious ogre.

    True, but there would be a family bucket of Kentucky riding along with him.

    They used examples personal to her, so unless the OP has had the same experiences, particularly at one time working full time for Crapita , prior to contracting, they wouldn't be relevant.

    We decided if you were too general with the contractor questions they could easily be shot down, or a standard text book response would be provided.

    I'd ask if it was 'fair' that HMRC are using their PR budget to sway the public into thinking that freelancers are tax 'avoiders', when in actual fact they have always followed HRMC rules to letter (assuming that they have asked their accountant), even when they are draconian.

    IMO you'd be better off asking us which word we would like you to slip in to your questions. I would like you to use the word 'moist' at least once.
    She's the quintessential corporate pole choker so if you get pole choker into a question that would suffice for me.
