This is a real debate, not like the sanitised UK version

Nicola struggled I think on this one, I have to say I thought the Scottish Conservatives had made an error choosing Ruth Davidson after Annabel Goldie stepped down,(I thought Annabel Goldie was an excellent leader), however Ruth Davidson was pretty formidable tonight.

I am somehow not so sure the SNP will take more than half of Labour's seats now actually.
Nicola made a bit of a mess of the referendum questioning and the voting as to budgets.
If she cannot in any way support a Conservative budget and is willing to vote down a Labour one,if I was a Scot, I would be wondering what on earth the SNP were up to and what was the point of sending them to Westminster at all.

I agree with her, I do wish Labour would go down the anti austerity path too but she does have to be practical.
I felt some bad vibes towards the SNP in that audience and liitle or no appetite for a 2nd referendum on independence either..

I am glad Jim Murphy re-iterated all that Ed Miliband said on Thursday, and Ed Miliband did not say he would rather see a Conservative govt:
He meant he would rather lose his Queen's speech than do a deal with the SNP,which means also, that he would prefer to rather have another election if the SNP voted him down too.

Sadly, for them, not for me, the Lib Dem was largely irrelevant again.

I thought the Tory lady did well, but its just irrelevant in Scotland at the moment. Nicola was hounded on the referendum question, and people would be misguided if they thought her agenda was anything but independence I think. It was all just very awkward. Apart from that it was a much more fiery version of the UK debate, I much prefer a bit of passion.

Independence is without doubt Wee Jimmy Sturgeons one and only ambition, that is why the party exists, without a prospect of it she might as well pack it in.

Who cares....bored with this nonsense now.
