Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

The 7 way debate will be worth watching for the entertainment value.

Of course it will be a mess. Just pure entertainment. One big argument and pointless. No one will get their point across. Serves the TV companies right for inviting the silly UKIP party. At the end of it, no one will remember who lost or won.

Crafty of Cameroon to try and include the monster raving loony party, and friends.
Gets him out of a debate he never wanted to take part in.

Crafty also of Cameron to rile Sturgeon today. SNP is disliked in England and the prospect of a Labour/SNP alliance will attract more voters to the Conservatives in England.

It was the possible inclusion of the monster raving loony party (UKIP) that caused it all.

An SNP/Lab alliance will upset a lot of people. All to the advantage of the Conservatives.

It is not over yet. The DUP are threatening legal action as they have quite a few seats. It could be 8 way now.

The biggest loser is Clegg. He would not get his three way debate.

db 3 and 1/2.
Strange what you "think?" about SNP.
Many tories have told me that they wish that they had Alex Salmond as their leader.
One of the biggest difference between that Nicola Sturgeon and Cameron, is that Sturgeon when asked a question appears to answer the question honestly, while Cameron always looks as if he is lying.
If there are debates that will become more obvious.
But, if the a debate I do not wish them to have awareness before the actual recorded debate of the questions which will be asked.

I would be delighted if Cameron chickened out and they had an empty chair.
Don't suppose it would make much difference, Cameron is pretty empty!

They could have regional debates, England, Scotland, Wales, NI, gets around the fair representation thingy, and gets shot of the also rans.
Not to disparage, but who cares who votes for who in say Wales? England is bigger than all the rest put together.

i'm surprised any tories or indeed anyone outside your immediate family talks to you, especially about politics, for they'ld run the risk of being preached to, no interruptions or disagreements permitted

Fred2old - Sturgeon has you fooled already! Who do you think would be wearing the trousers in the unlikely event of a Labour/SNP coalition? Sturgeon would be giving one Ed lessons on how to eat bacon sandwiches and the other Ed would be getting lessons on how to count up to three.
