They don't want to be seen to be agreeing with what they have been brain-washed into believing is a 'racist, xenophobic fool'.

Altogether now: Baaaaa....... Baaaaa.

Nothing to do with the bigoted views of UKIP representatives?

Ed Miliband pissed me off the most tonight. Natalie & Nicola both did the best imo.

I understand your point Vicky. It is basically a deterrent and as pricey as it is it is a needed deterrent.

You clearly haven't read their manifesto.

Ed seemed strong tonight, Nicola did very well again

Also loved the anti-Nigel audience and clapped at David demolishing his silly accusations of BBC bias

Overall though tonight has made me excited at the prospect of an actual progressive, left coalition. All I fear will stop that is the Tories having the most seats...

I am one of the few who have read it and it was like reading the Beano.

I thought Nigel had an opportunity to excel tonight and show he is not 1 dimensional. He didn't succeed, looked very weak I think

Cameron negotiated the final agreement with the broadcasters and I suppose this was one of his conditions - if they were going to have a debate without him then Clegg shouldn't be there either, that way they can call it an 'opposition debate' rather than an empty chairing

So we'll spend 100bn on what is essentially a sign to plop on your front garden telling people "Bugger off! We won't do anything about you but leave us alone!!"

That is the most illogical pro-trident argument I have heard so far, but at least you admit we will never use it.

The Tories will be in power again thanks to Nige. You heard it hear first.

Then could you please point out exactly where the greens state they want to allow ISIS to commit such crimes.

Slightly unfair, given it was camerons choice to spit the dummy :S

Russia is a major concern, read the news.

Oh and I also LOVED how any mention of David Cameron not being there was cheered and every time Farage brought up immigration as an excuse for everything as per there were sighs <3

That's just my speculation really but they said on the Daily Politics earlier that the Tories probably vetoed it and it does make sense, broadcasters probably wary of having an overt clash with the PM so bowed to that condition in order to get three debates and have Cameron attend the QT thing

[Christmas Dynamo]

I would be cross if i was from N I.

Who are these strange men with the funny accents

Glad the BBC are still using the election theme from 2010

Danny Alexander,what a waste of time interviewing him, I am amazed how many people think he is a Conservative not a Lib Dem MP.

Anyway, he is gone in May, even probably down to 3rd place in his seat in Inverness,Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey,behind the SNP and Labour.

A major concern to the UK's safety? Absolutely not. I have read the news and seen that to Ukraine, you may be able to make that argument, but not to us. They know that we have close relationships with the US and EU, launching an attack of any kind would be suicidal to them.
