Most people who vote Labour do so not because they believe in them but mostly because they just don't want a Torrie govt. Can't wait for the next debate, I think Clegg might cure the defeatist mentality most Lib Dem supporters suffer from. New hope, new hope
how did Gordon do? i heard he is like Bill Clinton, numbers and statistics hanging from his sleeves. congrats UK puppets for imitating your American masters in one more way in a million. I heard this morning its a first for UK to have these debates, it must be pretty exciting, and every brat must feel like americana
I watched the first half then lost interest. Clegg kept repeating he has something different to offer, but was vague in stating what that was. I didnt like his stance on crime, its in line with Labour's policy in handing out short community work sentences, the next government needs to be tough on crime. He also wants to add a third tier to immigration for non europeans, it will work, but i support open borders. I am conservative, would never vote for a liberal. I was impressed by both Brown and Cameron.
Woah, according top the Daily Mail ( ) Clegg smashed it!
Clegg 43%
Cameron 26%
Brown 20%
A hung parliament, with the Lib Dems and Labour would be perfect. The Lib Dems will have Labour over a barrel, they have the best stance on Tuition Fees...... and thats all I care about

Djib you are a very cool dude but straight up reer miyi. What is a "girl" thing? Polishing her nails? I wish to see a Somali woman president sometime soon.
Gordon was all on stats but he did answer back to Cameron in the end because all the Torrie was doing was pointing out Labour's mistakes, Cameron offered no real alternative. He spoke like a true sales man trying to play on people's emotions.
Clegg on the other hand was hands down the most honest and pragmatic of the 3. He pointed out where they were both going wrong in terms of taxes and reform and said what the Lib Dems would do differently. Both ended up stealing his points more than once.

Nothing. They might join forces in the future.
They're both Centre - Left, but Labour tilts slightly to the right on economic and some social issues. Lib Dems take a braver stance on personal liberty issues, social justice and foreign policy. They have firmer principles, there's barely any difference between the Tories and Labour on most issues.
