The Debate

[TestMangler]

Ok, I would just like to say a big thanks from all of the Scottish people (and the other nationals who just live and work in Scotland) who benefit from your very kind generosity.

Absolutely, thanks Doohg. Only thing is, it's not really enough, so would you mind sending more next year ?

Some of us up here have Porsche service histories to keep intact and pension portfolios to expand. We can't do that unless you Southerners pay your fair share and support us.

Or the power of the establishment to fix the postal vote

You really can't get over this, can you? You can't accept that some demographics might not want independence, and that makes them stupid, or that there were many rigged votes.

Sheesh I can't wait to see the look on your face when the Tories win an absolute majority, thanks mostly to voters being scared of the SNP running England and Labour teaming with them.

Paxman is a confirmed Tory though Jeremy Paxman: I'm a one-nation Tory and 'Newsnight' is made by 13-year-olds - People - News - The Independent

Dave wasn't polished when he was asked about working on a zero-hour contract and said he had answered the question when he hadn't.

It's a red herring and it is, at any rate, highly circumstantial and subjective whether someone could assuming it's even relevant. Cameron could've pointed this out and also highlighted their benefits to those who use them - by comparing to the alternatives - and to the wider economy.

We all set for tonight? Seems the master debaters are

Is there any political relevance in asking the PM if he could live on a zero hours contract?

No, it's just one of those stupid wanky questions that Eddie Mair seems to prefer these days.

Yes its the traditional Tory letter to the Tory press. One third Tory donors, One fifth Tory peers, a smattering of tax dodgers, payers of poverty wages, fat cats, friends of the Camerons. ...

You've got more chance of Elton John being caught having an affair with Monica Bellucci than the Tories winning an absolute majority

Green Party (Communists)
Liberal Democrats (Socialists)
SNP (National Socialists)
Plaid Cymru (Welsh Socialists)
Labour (Former socialists)

5/7 screaming lefties. Hardly seems a fair line up to me.

[pjclarke]

Liberal Democrats (Socialists)

Using that definition, the lefties have a current seat majority of 18 (322/304), which if current polls are accurate will rise to 65 (348/283) so, democratically speaking, we ought to get an overwhelmingly socialist government.

Bet we don't.
