Prime Ministerial Debates- Thread

Strangest election story of the day

Lamest "it wasn't me, sir" excuse ever.....

In a statement, BNP leader Nick Griffin said the jar had "apparently" been inserted by "one of the people to whom we had given the broadcast to review".

He added that it was not included in the official version of the broadcast.

However, Mr Griffin went on to say that the Marmite jar had been added in reaction to a recent advertising campaign for Marmite which he said mocked the BNP.

In the Marmite campaign two spoof political parties, the Love Party and the Hate Party, compete in a mock election.

The BNP claims the Hate Party was "clearly based" on itself.

"Quite simply, if you start a spoof, you should expect to get spoofed," added Mr Griffin.

"Although we are not responsible for whoever it was who inserted the Marmite jars into the internet version of the broadcast, we do see the amusing side."

God, he is a tool.
 
Why does David Cameron's face look airbrushed even on live TV?

Nick Clegg ended up getting the middle spot and last intro speech - seems like some good luck fo him.

(Wish they'd stop it with the colour coded ties though)
 
Fair opening speeches from Brown and Clegg. Didn't think much of Cameron's but then that doesn't surprise me.

I put that on the other thread earlier! Excellent story.

Does Cameron look better with a moustache....

:D

And they're off. Cameron in the purple tie, Clegg back in an orange tie, and Brown sporting the traditional Labour red.
 
What a horribly loaded first question. Tackling EU interference? That assumes interference exists, which is pretty subjective.
 
So all three are pro-Europe, but Tories a bit less so.

Looks like they are all going to kick the banks whenever possible.

It seems that is assumed by so many of the 'men on the street'.

I'm surprised the questioner didn't start ranting about stright bananas.
 
Clegg's got some confidence tonight.

David Cameron should make some headway with this - a surprising amount of peole want Britain to be 'out of Europe' (despite this being impractical).

Cool Nick Clegg just branded lots of people a 'Bunch of nutters' including Global Warming deniers.
 
Another rubbish question.

Where are they getting these people?

How can you answer a hypothetical like that? Far too many ifs and buts to make any answer to the actual question useful.

This is all abit sterile and "samey" from all 3.

I get the impression Brown wants to launch into raised voice rhetoric but can't pick his moment.
 
That was a bit lame:

David Cameron: I went for a run this morning with someone who had just got back from serving in Afghanistan

That seems irrelevant to the point of ridiculous.
It's not quite the same as visiting the troops in the field.
 
It's pretty much a draw at the moment:

Cameron much better than last time (not difficult) - he seems to have sorted out his nervous sweats

Clegg good

Broon - able to sound important by referencing all the secret intel reports and government leaders he's met....

I don't understand why no-one attacked Broon over Iraq when iraq came up - surely an open goal missed? You're standing next to the guy at the very fulcrum of governemt whilst we committed to it! Put the boot in.....

Trident - i wonder how that will play with the electorate?
 
still no mention of wives....though broon's reference to his kids got a laugh.
 
what have you done personally for climate change? what kind of question is that?
 
Oh Jesus, crappest question yet.

Who cares what they are personally doing for climate change.

Isn't what they plan for the country a little more relevant? What a waste of a question.
 
Ah, a climate change question.

But a rubbish one.

"Personally?" I don't care about that. I want to know what they will do nationally!
