Re: UK's first prime ministerial TV debate
I was mainly interested in the way they conducted themselves, . . . not in what they had to say, . . I've heard it all before, . . . there was a woman psychologist on News24 this morning and she was analysing their little hand and body movements, . . I've never heard so much guff in my life, . . where do these people come from ? . . . .

Funny old thing arithmetic sometimes the numbers just won't add up.

Re: UK's first prime ministerial TV debate
I didn`t watch it but as a life long Liberal it`s good to hear Clegg came out well.The biggest problem for the Lib Dems is that they will always be `also rans` while folks who might vote for them vote for others in order to keep another party out

Re: UK's first prime ministerial TV debate
Last night was the first night I have ever had any interest in politics and I cant believe I sat and watched all of it and found it very interesting (apart from the education bit which doesnt affect me). I though Nick Clegg came across as the most honest and earnest and he'll be getting my vote because all my life its gone from labour to tory and back again and all they do is line their own pockets and those of their rich cronies. Time for a real change, dont think they could do much worse.16-04-2010, 03:59 PM

The other's just didn't cut it, Nick Clegg is the only one that came across as a good guy that can get the job done imo. And while the lib-dems were always seen as 'also rans' I think this year is going to be very different, so many more people are going to vote for them based on what I've seen...

Re: UK's first prime ministerial TV debate
if they put a red rosette on a donkey they'd vote for it.Why does Mr Scargill come to mind?? I make no comment about that strike and I was in Yorkshire trying to manage a team with miner`s wives and a copper`s wife in the same team-and me a Southerner.
But if ever there were brave men led by a mule it was Scargill

If Brown,(I wish he would) acted like a Lemming and Jumped of a cliff the supporters would follow.

Re: UK's first prime ministerial TV debate
Nick Clegg will get my vote for abolishing the £250 payment for each child born, in reality £250 every 3 minutes, and then when they reach the age of7 another £250, how on earth can this be continued, no wonder we are deeply in debt, I believe if people choose to have children, then look after them.
