Third Leader's Debate - BBC 29th April

845 replies

CatherineHMumsnet · 28/04/2010 11:11

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

Never join Euro.

That is another reason not to vote for you, David

Sabs1981 · 29/04/2010 20:34

nappy just before the debate started they were talking to some people about how the election was previously billed as the MN election but there hasnt been much evidence of that since the date of the election was announced

Good opening statement GB, get in there before the others can.

Sabs1981 · 29/04/2010 20:34

First mention about yesterday's incident

whifflegarden · 29/04/2010 20:34

ffs, I can't believe gb started with mention of yesterday's incident.

CUNextTuesday · 29/04/2010 20:34

I would have laughed if GB's microphone had been off

nappyzoneloveslindor · 29/04/2010 20:35

I think there is a general red/purple hue in the building, hence the colouring.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 29/04/2010 20:35

they all sound utterly exhausted. comeon chaps, theres a week to go yet.

whifflegarden · 29/04/2010 20:36

mmelindt, right now it's a bloody relief not to use euro as our currency

FairyMum · 29/04/2010 20:36

Very true - they all look shattered.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 29/04/2010 20:36

Clegg, I think you are great but you are wrong about the typhoon.

Sabs1981 · 29/04/2010 20:36

BTW I have pretzels

tvaerialmagpiebin · 29/04/2010 20:37

Evenin' all.

I haven't watched the others, but WTF are these podiums about? They look like they are on Fifteen to One.

Ooh I like GB's tie.

A friend said to me earlier that DC looks just like Henry the Green Engine. He does, he does!! (albeit with St Tropez)

yum to pretzels!

VoidofDiscovery · 29/04/2010 20:38

can I join in? Actually think GB is being honest, yes it will be tough

whifflegarden · 29/04/2010 20:38

venue is on my daily commute, was all abuzz earlier with media vans, posters etc. I find it absurd that GB, who got us in to this mess, is out there claiming that he's the man to fix it

MrsForgetful · 29/04/2010 20:38

wish gordie had said that opening remark yesterday...100% better than apologising so excessively for something you didn't need to apologise for... to admit we all get things wrong is spot on.

SparrowGirl · 29/04/2010 20:38

Brown is keeping his serious face on I notice...a good move. He is just far too creeping when he smiles!

InmyheadIminParis · 29/04/2010 20:38

Okay - how about an 'efficiency savings' round of debate bingo? Score 1.

NoahAndTheWhale · 29/04/2010 20:38

GB sounded very nervous in his opening bit

VoidofDiscovery · 29/04/2010 20:39

lol at Henry, v true
