BBC Question Time Live Chat - 2nd July 2009 - #bbcqt

It's BBC Question Time day again and the Live Chat on this blog will start at 10:30pm.

The panel will include Deputy Leader of the Labour Party and Leader of the House of Commons Harriet Harman MP, the former leader of the Conservative party Iain Duncan Smith MP, the Liberal Democrat MP David Laws, the musician and songwriter Jarvis Cocker, and the journalist and columnist Peter Hitchens.

You can also follow people's comments on Twitter via the #bbcqt hashtag (you can also follow me here on Twitter by the way).

Liberal Democrat Voice also always have an open thread for BBC Question Time which is usually posted just before the start of the programme.

Last week's chat was a bit unusual because the news about Michael Jackson started breaking during the broadcast so it was hard for us to maintain the focus on what was being said. Hopefully there will be nothing like that happening this week.

The chat starts from 10:30pm this evening. All are welcome.
