In the interests of a balanced debate, will there be interviews with Vince Cable and Alastair Darling before the election?

Do note this is in my personal blog not part of the main site.

The interview wasn't given to MSE - I don't have that access - it was for the news of the world.

As the transcripts were available I thought I would publish it here. If the NOTW ask me to be on panels with the others, I'd happily do it and do the same again.

As for balance, we always try to do that in site stuff as we did on bank charges. (though you may be interested to know there's no requirement to do so - that only applies on TV - if I wanted to dedicate this site to campaigning for the Purple Party in the election I could - in much the same way that the papers support parties - yet thats not something I intend to do with the site).

I could off course try and set up interviews with teh other two myself - having said that this interview was one of the least read new things on the site if I'm honest - im just not convinced most moneysavers want it - therefore I won't be pushign resources at trying to fix such a big interview.

Errata

Clearly the movers and shakers are all ends up keeping Mumsnet happy and onside. Shame that; like the song says, "Money makes the world go around...."
