April 22nd TV Debate

[squirrel42]

I'm going along to be in the audience this Thursday for the Sky News TV Debate - it's being filmed in the South West, although it seems we're not supposed to say exactly where for security reasons.

Would people like an official MN behind-the-scenes report afterwards?

Should I break the rules and heckle/cheer loudly at a strategic moment, and if so then when?

If I'm allowed to ask a question should I go "off-script" and ask about biscuits?

Is there anything else I should think about?

Nick can't seem to say Gordon has to be Gordon Brown.

I like NCs emphasis on longer term - some things should be taken out of the short-termism of politics.

Not sure about his 'never ever ever happen again'. Smacks a bit of GB's 'No return to boom and bust'

man, nick clegg is on fire!

GB scottish accent kicked in there

DC looks knackered

did nc just call her bethlehem????

Immigration now true colours about to come up

Didn't we have this immigration question last week?

Yawn...GB

What is her name? Did Nick call her Bethlehem?

Nothing wrong with DC. Just that NC does a better DC than DC

GB just agreed it was last week as well

I thought her name WAS Bethlehem

catas it's more in depth this week

Let's remember GB and Sarah lost their dd and have a child with a life limiting illness.
Elections are not about this, although they may be used to garner sympathy and empathy toward a personality, it should not be a deciding factor in electing someone to run a country.

As a carer it doesn't work for me I am afraid- I ahve met many people with children as severe as DC's who think that less severe chidlren are easy and shoudln't get funding

That doesn't mean I don't want hiom to mention Ivan, and I woudln't mind if Gordon mentioned either Jennifer or his son, but it doesn't have the effect of making me more confident in his support for all carers

Even teh SN community can be competitive at times I can assure you!

Oh yes that would be my mishearing

Her name is Bethelehem. I thought it was some reference to no room at the inn, which I did think was a bit of an odd comment from an aetheist .

Is dc snirking at her name . She doesn't look chuffed.

The questioner look pissed off.

To be fair the chair person didn't make her name very clear.

Does appear to be Bethlehem.

What jobs are the Polish doing though, DC? They are cleaners and builders, the jobs that the Brits don't want to do.

Bethlehem looks cheesed off IMO.

When DC talks about putting a cap on immigrants, I just picture him giving them all baseball hats

am i allowed to say that gordon brown is actually coming across really well, and playing the "you two are pretenders, i'm doing the job and am the only one who knows what's what" card surprisingly well
