Raynor is noted for saying what she thinks.
I felt she was well below her usual flow on things last night.
I was disappointed.
However in the more lively clash with Mordaunt she really got Mordaunt mad, when Mordaunt admitted they'd put tax up to its highest in 70 years.
I thought Mordaunt was going to explode.

I just think these debates are more pointless.
The question originally asked, gets easily discarded.
Very little is learned by those viewing.
There must be better ways to campaign than this really.

Although he annoys me, Farage does stick to the question and does entertain.
I kept thinking all through just what would he have liked to say uncensored about the whole bunch there last night.

Rayner looked weak and uncertain every time PennyM went for her ..

Penny had her number

Have to disagree,sorry.
Mordaunt was extremely poor as to how she really can be.

Plus Raynor floored her on the tax issue as I said.
All through Mordaunt got really nowhere.

Neither lit the debate up on anything though.
It was really poor all through.

Why bother with it. Not too keen on giving Faridge any more air and wouldn't vote for any of the others.

But yes there's no point watching these debates or reading any manifesto. Complete works of fiction, every time.

Agree, and the format of every debate so far has been terrible or poorly moderated.

I’d like to think that Britain is a little smarter than America and this pound shop Trump routine won’t work, but unfortunately, I think there’s just enough easily manipulated, genuinely worried people who’ll buy into his complete and utter nonsense

Sorry if I upset anyone but I really do think Farage and Tice are dreamers.

It's only a gut feeling but I don't think either one will win seats. I often think Farage thinks he's the second coming and the bizarre way the media talk about him, they think that too.

But I hear a new poll is saying Reform have lost a few percentage points.

I dont think Brits are smarter, I think our system is better in that its more difficult for a Trump like figure to gain power and then hold onto it.

I have to laugh at the people who think he's gonna become PM. If all the Reform candidates win then they're still short of getting over the line to form a government. It makes you wonder why are they all running? Is it to destroy the Tories. I'm all for that but what do they do after the Tories are defeated.

They're such a joke that candidates are still being prevented from running due to accusation of racism and religious bogitry.

Of course he won.

Mordaunt is too scared to say anything due to the pending Tory leadership fight that she will inevitably enter.

Rayner canty say anything to embarrass Sir Keir Starmer and her labour colleague.

The Green and SNP leaders.....

It was the perfect stage for Mr Britain to shine
