That's about as good as any PM can hope for in a debate like this unless their five years in office have been ones of unqualified success.

Yes a great 2 hour Debate
that got SNP above Labour


The next debate is the 5 outsiders

I just can't trust Sturgeon.She just seems so insincere and untrustworthy imo.She always has that Scottish agenda in everything she does and she has no interest in the UK as a whole,Just to grab what she can for Scotland and feck everyone else.
Also her stand our defence is just plain irresponsible.
I have been a Labour voter in the past but i can't fecking stand Millibland and Labour are weak on immigration and did nothing good in their previous terms in government.
Conservatives never.I would have to sell my soul to vote that way and i never will.
Clegg is a good speaker but the LibDems are just willing to bend over and be anyones bitch and go along with anyone just to have that 15 minutes(5 years) of fame.
Greens would turn this country into some kind of hippy commune with no transport,power or defences and our kids would be eating tofu and nut roll sandwiches for their school dinners.
For me Farage slayed with a cool air of confidence and he is the change from the 2 old parties that this country needs.He said nothing i disagree with and alot i do agree with.My vote for policies survey came back 100% UKIP so i will be proudly voting UKIP even though they have no chance of winning.Gotta vote for what you believe in.

Farage brought up Foreigners getting free HIV drugs
its a around Ł18,000 a year in cost. (a general google search)

We must be open about this

The discourse between Nigel and the Welsh lady says it all. He was dealing in facts and she was just spouting emotion.

Politics is about the reality of life not the fantasy, its why socialism never works - it may be lovely to say we must help everyone and be nice and what would jesus do etc but the reality is somewhat different.

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.

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.

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.

It was an impromptu plea, and there was no law in place she was free to speak...we all are, for now.
Kudos to her, it was a good point well made. She may not wish to become a cog in the system, that doesn't mean her voice should be so small it can't be heard.
