It's easy because it's true: no one outside of Scotland can vote SNP, they do want to break up the Union, and they do think they should have more powers and more money. Not hard to see why that is disagreeable to English voters no matter how much we are portrayed as bloated overlords desperate to keep the poor Scots and Welsh down. IMO the Union won't survive more than another two decades, and just as important as the SNP and Plaid Cymru to that will be when England gets fed up of always being the villain of the play. If a Labour/SNP coalition is the result of the election there will be a hell of a lot of Englanders wishing that Scotland would have voted Yes after all.

This forums ever increasing stupidity and growing racial intolerance never ceases to amaze.
Do people just hear Farages carefully worded quips or do they even attempt to think about the consequences of what he is actually saying?
This bigoted man is very dangerous. "Aww but he is just a mate from the pub" fcuk me and i thought Boris with his buffoon act was dangerous this **** leaves him in the dirt.

I agree miliband was embarrassing, he was a massive part of the wreckage of the last labour disaster, last night we saw his whole blarist persona his over coaching, his look to the question , turn to camera raise out the arm pointing with bent hand cue fake smile .....awful.

yes those are points that the opponents to the tories should hammer on about....but miliband failed to bring it up. and natalie just briefly touched on..the treatment of ex soldiers is a sick joke....Cameron even rambled about charities helping them...FCKING charities? patronising twaddle...they should get compensation a fat pension and military hopsitals....fracking is another nightmare on the horizon. also no one mentioned the severn barrage which should have happened 30 years ago already , but its never too late

I don't feel she did, I was very proud of her impassioned stance on behalf of others... Many politicians should take note.

take note of what, thinking she is above the rules, ruining people's enjoyment, shouting like an oik. It was embarrassing. If she is so keen go and stand for a party and make a difference.
