    Wow, talk about multi tasking lol!

    When listening only whilst I look at some web pages I've got Clegg and Cameron mixed up a few times.

    I find the relentless lying from Brown hard to stomach, personally.

    Cameron tried the same trick as Clegg then trying to pick out the person in the audience....desperation??

    i noticed that too...it just looked like copying and rather sad. he didn't pull it off as well as clegg who is coming across as very sincere and a breath of fresh air tbh.

    Brown's just claimed the military say that they've got the best equipped forces that they've ever had. That's !!!!!!!!.

    So, have they discussed any policies for the lazy familys yet? Or is it the normal gumpf about policies for 'hard-working families'?

    Hey, it says this about the Lib Dems in my area on that Sky News website, what does it mean? Will I not have a candidate at the election then?

    The Liberal Democrats have shut down their North West Leicestershire branch just months before the general election. The party’s headquarters in London decided to suspend all of the group’s 60 members after alleged in-fighting and rule-breaking. While being suspended local Lib Dems cannot stand as PPC and no official meetings will be held. The East Midlands regional party branch is now handling the affairs of the branch

    Wow, I bet it doesn't say that on the LibDem website! I'd be inclined to phone the party tomorrow morning, say you were impressed with Nick Clegg and ask them directly what they are doing to ensure you are able to vote for them.

    Sounds like not...also sounds rather more worrying to me ...why has there central office not sorted this out?:eek: it could be a real loss for them. You need the questionnaires. ;)
