Arrived at at ITV studios now - it's being held here as Channel 4 don't have studio capcity for this, I was told by helpful PR lady.
Most exciting journo in line of sight so far is Quentin Letts , political sketchwriter for Mail (ex of Times, Telegraph etc).
Fingers crossed for Nick Robinson or Andy Marr soon

Some useful info in the C4 press pack. The audience has been pretty carefully selected, 80% 'have expressed voting intention' and 20% haven't expressed intention or will vote for a 'minor party' - channel 4's words not mine!
Of the 80% who want to vote, they are split on a 7:7:5 ratio for Labour, Tories and Lib Dems - so those Vince Cable lovers will have to cheer extra loud!Former MSE team member0 -

OOh it's started. They're outlining their principal vision now
Basically: Osborne - cutting deficit, Cable - change regulation/tax systems, Darling - cut spendingFormer MSE team member0 -
What is it with politicians and not answering questions directly? She only asked for your qualitiesJust because I disagree with you, doesn't mean I hate you. We need to understand this as a Society :beer:

I thought Cable and Darling answered well, for politicians, but Osborne didnt do so well!
Athough im kinda getting bored of hearing how the Lib Dems saw this coming! shut up about the past!Gotta get the debt down from £18,000 and fingers crossed win some comps!
Thank you to everyone who posts advice and comps on the forum, Good luck to you all!! :A0 -
