Brown's trying to go on the attack on expenses? There's something about that that doesn't quite work...

Basically they want to kick out all non-whites, attempt to persuade Ireland to rejoin the UK, nationalise the banks, and increase public spending generally. I doubt BNP Britain is erudite enough to articulate those points well. But where is he nowadays, I haven't seen him for a while?

BNP's Britain is an hero who has suffered unfairly at the hands of the forces of darkness; a man who gave his very account for his country. Were this any kind of a fair society, we would had known that truth is an absolute defense, and none of these pics looked shooped. But, sadly, he is no longer with us.

Nonetheless, to honour his memory, I shall vote for BNP, on the chance that at least some of his vision comes true.

As for kicking out the non-whites, I'm pretty sure BNP is just misunderstood on this one, they just want everyone to do what they do best, but certainly not to kick them out.

I think they ran off and talked about legislative reform when that moment happened.

Yet another little anecdote by Mr. Cameron. Where does he get these from?

Gordon Brown, in a very long speech, is basically saying: "Don't cut money for schools"

Its easy for him, he has no major track record with which he needs to be consistent with.

Clegg is doing well but I've been impressed by how well Cameron is deflecting damaging questions.

That was incredibly well-played, he appears genuinely connected to the questioner.

Clegg is doing well.

And Clegg again connecting to the questioner with a little joke, and by directly looking at the person who asked the question. He has really impressed tonight, and I think the opinions of many people will have been changed tonight.

I think young Josh Joel would vote Lib Dem if he could.

I know they're not supposed to, but I hope for a moment where one of them says something genuinely insightful and the audience instinctively applauds.

Precisely. What are they going to do if they do start to applaud? Tell them to shut up on live TV? What can they do?

Yes, I know. That's why I included the qualifier of "I hope".

Clegg actually asking for where the questioner is yet again. He is doing brilliantly, and anyone who has any problems with the LibDems can actually listen to him. Whereas Cameron and Brown are simply ranting toward each other.

Or do whatever they did in that West Wing ep.
