Third Leader's Debate - BBC 29th April

845 replies

In anticipation of tomorrow's TV debate, MN will be launching a fifth poll of Mumsnetter voting intentions as soon as the debate finishes. Can Cameron regain the ground he's lost? Will Clegg continue to build on his success following the first and second debates? We'll have to wait and see - but in the meantime, we've put together a handy table showing how your voting intentions and attitudes towards the party leaders have changed over the past four polls

No clues! It's MIllie's Cookies I tell ya (that's why I'm so fat - I'm not really pg)

someone just called.

I have to confess, I half expected GB to turn up tonight, throw in the towel and tell the whole lot of them to just sod off. Followed by a good stomping off and slamming of doors. Looks like it still could happen...

Nick Clegg is the only one who sounds like someone I might actually meet in the real world.

VoidofDiscovery · 29/04/2010 21:11

Oh good one Nick

Surely DC is not trying to say the Tories had nothing to do with the decline of manafacturing in this country?

MmeLindt · 29/04/2010 21:10

You cannot rebuild manufacturing jobs. European workforces are too expensive.

I agree, 50K is not a lot if you live in London

Molesworth · 29/04/2010 21:10

Blood boiling at the sound of a tory bemoaning the loss of our manufacturing industries. The cheek!

ronshar · 29/04/2010 21:10

Thats funny my DH was cut off by his buisness bank. Retrained and has had no support from anywhere. Really GB?

Ericblack · 29/04/2010 21:10

Gordon's stormin' given what a SHIT day he must have had yesterday. Very impressive.

I would have had sex with Clegg there and then when he mentioned cutting all bankers bonuses. Get in there!!

mumutd · 29/04/2010 21:10

Off to put my ice-cream back in the freezer, managed to eat half a tub (oops)

southeastastra · 29/04/2010 21:10

oh fgs is cameron going to try to blame labour on closing industry down

teaandcakeplease · 29/04/2010 21:10

I'm finding the way GB sniggers when NC suggests certain things patronising. Saw it when the camera panned 5 mins ago.

whifflegarden · 29/04/2010 21:09

woosam, ideologically, I agree re. child benefit. I haven't put enough thought into that one though.
I was disgusted when they cut vat, pissed £12bn up the wall right there. Even buying a relatively expensive £1000 item, £20 reduction is not going to matter to consumers but cumulative effect on govt finances was significant.

MollieO · 29/04/2010 21:09

Not sure I like the thought of the Bank of England regulating banks again. I used to know someone at the BofE whose job it was to monitor BCCI and we all remember what happened to that bank.

SethStarkaddersMum · 29/04/2010 21:09

I wish I believed a word GB said when he says what he is going to do.

Cartoose · 29/04/2010 21:09

But he looks like he's seething under there (GB)

InmyheadIminParis · 29/04/2010 21:09

Bumper - another clue? I'm with winston on this.
