Mee Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I found the debate at the end interesting as there was no one involved from northern Ireland with 30 odd seats and 8 for 1 part while the greens and UKIP got in with 1 seat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weekevie04 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Nicola was excellent. I think possibly even better than the one with Cleggy and Dave, yet seems most politicos saying she good, but better last time. Natalie Bennett was pretty decent. Good luck to her. She had a few mareish interviews in the run up to this, and seems to have came back. I think her oratary style is offputting, but what she said I agreed a lot with. Leanne Wood - fairly robust performance. Again, good idea - appeal to Wales first and foremost. Miliband - he was meh. He's too polished. The looking in the camera stuff. No major errors, but nothing groundbreaking. Farage - an official one trick pony. Fair enough it's their reason for exisiting, but surely even most Europhobes must be getting bored of every single subject touched reverting back to the EU. Cameron - 2nd runner up by default for chickening out of it. Then his Tory MPs all saying it was an opposition debate. Pussy and quite happy most of the leaders' all had a dig. Clegg - the ultimate loser. He wanted to be there, but again, it shows exactly what a disaster it was for him and his party to coalign with the Tories. Much like I heard Danny Alexander say "75% of their manifesto has been passed". Not even sure if that's true, even if so, the only thing Clegg will be remebered for is the tution fees.

exile Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 R4 Today programme leads with the story that Miliband has rebuffed Sturgeon's offer of a 'coalition'. Do these people not realise we get the internet... no wait... it was on TV... the BBC were misrepresenting their own programme They also giving Tory and Lib Dem plenty of airtime reacting to the debate - what sort of back door deal did they do with the coward Cameron?

Hertsscot Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 They also giving Tory and Lib Dem plenty of airtime reacting to the debate - what sort of back door deal did they do with the coward Cameron?BBC 5 at it as well reporting on how Tories and Lib Dems weren't there. At least in the case of the former it should have been pointed out that they chose not to be there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mariokempes56 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 BBC repeatedly reporting Milliband turned down offer of coalition from SNP.... give me strength Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossy Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 The 'won' thing is entirely misleading....means nothing. In the sense that there was only one person on the stage last night who could be Prime Minister, then Milliband won the debate. And given that his opposition were all left of centre, aside from one obvious lunatic, he certainly was never going to be pushed to his (arther restricted) limits. For all that Cameron is a c0ck, if he'd been there last night I doubt if Milliband would have 'won'. As for Nicola, she doesnt care too much about people in Basildon and Exeter saying that she 'won'. She's interested in Scottish voters watching last night.....who must have been impressed with her arguments, attitude, control of the facts, and most importantly the fact that she effectively controlled Milliband (or next PM ?) from start to finish. The fact that a huge number of SNP MP's will give Scotland a loud and important voice at Westminster after May is so glaringly obvious that I simply cannot understand how anyone in Scotland could consider voting anything other than SNP. One other point.....as huge a part as Salmond has played in getting the SNP to this point, there's only one person who can take the party forward.....maybe even to the independence that so many of us want. Nicola has gained respect in the last 4 months from so many people, many of them who hate Salmond with a passion. The SNP no longer needs such a polarising figure leading it.....Sturgeon is undoubtedly proving herself a worthy leader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armchair Bob Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 The fact that a huge number of SNP MP's will give Scotland a loud and important voice at Westminster after May is so glaringly obvious that I simply cannot understand how anyone in Scotland could consider voting anything other than SNP. Here's the thing. Scotland's only strength in Westminster is unity, sending a block of similar MPs to try to influence the UK government. In the last few decades it has been Labour, before that unionist, before that Liberal, before that, going all the way back to Lord Melville, whoever the Dundases could buy to support the incumbent government. This might be subconscious but the Scottish block vote definitely happens. And now there is only one obvious guarantor of Scottish interests as far as that vote goes.
