Re: May versus Corbyn
The part I think I like the most was when Paxo asked May - several times - whether she was prepared to leave the EU without a deal.
To which she answered - repeatedly - "No deal is better than a bad deal."
Paxman didn't feel inclined to take this as an answer to his question, but to my mind the expression "No deal is better than a bad deal" states precisely that, that she
would be prepared to leave the EU without a deal.
Yes, I think she stood up to him very well indeed.
