I take great exception at the advisors the politicians choose. MP s have forgotten that they are there to doour will. they treat us like fools whxih we are not. Time for them to listen to thier electorate.

I have rarely been so appalled by the arrogance, rudeness and downright unwillingness to listen.  David Babbs has shown who the better person is and I thank him.  I would be worried about these men/women remaining in Parliament but based on this who will vote for them?  NOT ME!  As a way of alienating potential voters this must surely be a master class.

Utter, utter arrogance and pomposity. We pay these idiots salaries!! Beyond credibilty that this is regarded as acceptable behaviour by elected representatives. Sounds more like an Iranian revolutionary Court

The audacity of these MPs never fails to astound me; isn't it about time they started to "LISTEN" to what the public actually want from them? I guess it's about time the public started to take notice of of what their MPs are up to; I will actively share every example of their unfettered arrogance on my social media pages and urge all other 38  Degree members to do the same.  British MPs need to watch out or their behaviour will trigger a political revolution!

Pot calling the kettle black - accusing 38 degrees of arrogance! They admit that the CBI and trade unions don't know how the TTIP will work, yet members of the public are VERY VERY NAUGHTY for daring to have an opinion, while not being fortune tellers! Disgusting, arrogant, self-serving MPs ( as per usual, it seems)

Just writing to say, I support you all the way David.

I was furious when first hearing this report on Radio 4, but am even more so now with more focus.  Not only does this confirm the effrontery of politicians, but also their ignorance in not understanding that the definition of an "expert" is that 'X' is the unknown factor, while a 'spurt' is a drip under pressure.

Arrogant MPs seem to have forgotten again that they work for us. Well done David. Remember it's ordinary working people i.e. voters who are in charge.

This clip seems very selective. In the 3 hour video of the whole session there is much worth watching and listening to. After the quite brief angry bits, David pretty well followed the rules and was clearly being listened to although other witnesses were no less interesting. Some aspects of 38 Degrees were challenged eg allowing unrestricted use of its logo.

You're not hear to challenge?  HOW DARE THEY?  Where is this arrogance coming from?  Normal people, who can think for themselves, can identify political arrogance without having to ask the politicians.

Executive Director of 38 Degrees, spoke to the Business, Innovation and Skills select committee about the TTIP campaign.
