Why is Steve Coogan ditching Labour for the Lib Dems? 

He is a brilliant, funny actor, however as a man he is a total bell end.

"They feed beef burgers to swans."

Because he's a metropolitan out of touch millionaire.

He’s a typical middle class celeb who thinks he knows best for the little people.

Steve Coogan’s new character here is brilliant!

A B list celeb who is reasonably funny when playing other characters. His own character, however, is shallow, arrogant, narcissistic and very irritating.

Another celebrity who thinks he knows better than 17.5 million voters.

Not sure why they interview rich celebs, their life doesn't change for them no matter who is in charge..

Alan Partridge - Charlie Sierra His new movie "champagne socialist"

love this mans comedy but not his politics.

Who cares what Coogan has to say. Not me.

We are leaving ...Merry Christmas.

Why is Steve “I’m not a funny as Paul Whitehouse” Coogan relevant on this? 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

Oh Steve... how disappointing!

I don’t think he is a brilliant and funny actor, he is simply a total bell end period.

How did tactical voting work for Steve? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Heseltine stabbed thatcher in the back. Steve doesn't know what he is talking about. Google it.

Coogan endorsing Kenneth Clarke. O....K!

Steve Coogan is a crank.

So he's the one person who voted for the Lib Dems.

Hmm what about those of us who would usually vote Lib Dem or Labour who are forced to vote Tory because we voted leave and our parties have ditched us! Guess we are just right wingers too eh Steve.

Who cares ?

I love these celeb endorsements - as it is always the kiss of death

Is it weird I’d rather be friends with Alan Partridge than Steve Coogan??

Oh the almighty tactical vote. Let's ask the Americans how that went shall we?

Its amazing how all his characters are larger than life and endearing yet Steve coogan himself is a cantankerous, dislikeable weasel

There is nothing wrong with being right wing, just as there is nothing wrong with being left.

All I hear about is tactical voting like it's something new. It happens at every election, Labour voters in the south have often voted Liberal in the past to try and get the Tory out. Hardly ever works though.

Does anyone really care who Steve Coogan is voting for? Why was this worthy of its own upload? Who asked?

"This and no other is the root from which a tyrant springs; when he first appears he is a protector". Plato

5:11 'Extreme Measure'... with Trevor Eve, Friday at 9, on BBC One

I thought Steve Coogan was excellent in Stan & Ollie. After seeing his derogatory remarks regarding anyone who didn't vote for Labour, I realised how unintelligent and pathetic he is.

Because he is a pratt, or has no sense.

Sorry Partridge, not gonna work. Looking forward to a Tory majority come Friday morning.

What a shame, I thought he was better than this.

He made a slip towards the end , called the labour party the government?

‘They make pigs smoke’

Sky News content not to correct his gaffe about the Labour Party. Respect for Steve Coogan has increased tenfold.

When the actors IQ is lower than the character he is famous for

Uh-uh. I want a second referendum.

He’s made himself look a complete fool and completely out of touch with ordinary people because just look at the way the vote went. To use the racists argument again and again is insulting to those who had other concerns about remaining in the EU.

Who cares what he says or what he thinks or who he votes for.

All the Tories are trying to do is to implement the vote of 2016. The Parliament voted in favour of an EU referendum, and said they would implement the result. That is because most Remainers assumed that Remain would win easily - what a shock they got. When the silent majority are given a vote they sometimes upset the received wisdom of the vociferous minority. Having got a Leave vote the 75% of MPs that were Remainers decided (having won their seats in the 2017 general election under false pretences) to throw every obstacle in the way of Brexit. The aim being to just keep kicking it into the distance in the hope that eventually it would simply go away. Lib Dems and labour have become Remain parties - so that means the Leavers in today's vote only really have one viable party to vote for. People are all in favour of democracy - as long as the result is the one they want. If not, they cry 'foul' and immediately start to overturn the result one way or another.

It’s little wonder Richard Hammond hates the sight of him !

Poor old Steve.......stuffed out of sight by 14 million people who dare to take a different view to his self righteous arrogance.Merry Xmas Steve..!!

How does Mr. Coogan’s collection of sports cars fit in with LibDem climate policy?

A champagne socialist

Misleading title. He’s tactically voting to keep the Tories out, as a vote for Labour in his constituency would be a wasted vote. He’s not ditching the Labour Party at all, and has even just recreated a short film for the Labour Party social media channels!

How did that work out Steve?

Who could have known that Coogan was to have such a profound effect on the result...albeit the complete opposite to what he intended

Telling other people how they should vote is ( fascism ) and standing as a ‘ Liberal Democrat who wants to block a democratic vote 🗳 ( that is fascism )

Well if I ever see ya in public I'm launching something at ya

Vote leave (Conservative) to preserve what little democracy we have.

Back of his own net!

And The Winner is conservative. A Vision

Presenter: and just finally steve can we get a quick 'Aha' Steve: ... Steve: aha

Can't I just vote for Steve Coogan?

Ahh-haaa!

For anyone still confused over the outcome of a potential second Brexit referendum we’ve just had it. 2-0. Best of five anyone?...

‘Don’t like the smell of this Labour government ‘ - what, did I miss something?

Sky, balanced news! This is truly the funniest this individual has ever been.

I think he might have alienated a large portion of his audience by calling them ignorant , how can he have a swipe at working class people and expect them to remain interested in his work , it's not gonna fly , is it ?

In a nutshell; Steve coogan - Twonk 🤤

What about the pedestrianisation of Norwich town center?

He gets EU funding.why wouldn't he want to be on the gravy train

They did suspend their usual preferences, Steve. They voted Tory! 😅

Alan partridge would vote conservatives

Funniest thing he’s ever done was trying trying to get people to vote for labour 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Disappointing low brow ideas from a great comic Vote my way or your a right wing fanatic

Who would Alan Partridge vote for?

Did he fly in from the South of France to do this Interview.

Desperate

The most ironic thing is now that we have had a massive political shift, Steve is a national treasure with outdated political views. He has become a real life Alan Partridge.

Is it just me or does he call the labour party the nasty party at the end???

Well that’s another ‘celeb’ I won’t be watching anymore 🙄

Hardly any celebs end up really being cool

Steve looks clinically fed-up.

17.4 million voted to leave

Why use the term 'ditching'? Voting tactically as a one-off isn't the same as ditching a party. Great choice of words for a journalist...

"Men in platform shoes being arrested for bombings"

5:54 ish... I don’t think he meant to say labour, did he ?... or did he !? 😳😆

That's your choice Coogan, we don't need someone else to think for us, this is OUR vote. Nice try.

"RIGHT WING FUNDAMENTALISTS" ? get a grip man! (and have a shave!)

i agree about the labour party

He’s got a point about the smell of Labour.

WHAT ABOUT VEHICULAR ACCESS TO DIXONS

I love his work but I won’t be watching him again with the same interest. People with careers in the public eye that depend on viewers should keep their mouths closed

I didn't need Steve Coogian to tell me to vote tactically, I decided to when every NHS practician & staff member told me to vote against this Conservative Party. The NHS is the best thing our country has in my opinion.

Celebrity endorsements are the kiss of death.

It's easier to respect Alan Partridge than it is Steve Coogan.

Lords aren't allowed to vote

Of all the political parties in all the UK he aligned himself with the two biggest failures. Stick with the day job, what ever it is.

once a comedian, always a comedian ;)

MISLEADING TITLE.

Hugh grant ..steve coogan.. bob geldof ..terry Christian.. kit Harrington.. all these millionaire luvvies made me turn my back on labour and vote Brexit

*VOTE LABOUR*

Wish he hadnt accidentally said Labour at 5.54.

Didn't know what we were voting for 2.0

He didn't even come up with alan partridge himself, stole the idea.

Well people certainly switched parties alright. Just not how stevie boy hoped the would.
