    That's fair, by the same token there is nothing Milliband could do to get me to vote for him. However there are plenty of people undecided between UKIP/Tory or Labour/Green/Lib Dem, a good or bad performance could see a significant swing in those races.

    I disagree, I think there are huge swathes of undecided voters in this election, perhaps more than there has ever been. It sounds like most of the voters you speak to don't fall in to the 'undecided' category, in which case it's unlikely anything would change their vote. I also happen to live...

    Of course it was good politics, but in this case good politics makes for bad democracy which is more important to me. I'm also a bit sick of this 'no-win' argument for the incumbent in debates. Four of the last five US Presidents have debated as an incumbent and won a second term, it's...

    Didn't even bother watching, if it's not a head to head debate then it's not worth much IMO. Cameron weaselling out of proper debates has probably cost the Conservatives my vote.

    There's no way to stop a 13 man maul from 5 meters out without collapsing it, thought it should have been an easy decision. Oh well, onwards and upwards to the World Cup

    We should have put 40 on Scotland, the way we wasted our chances we have nothing to complain about IMO

    French bought down the maul, should have been a penalty try at the end there but oh well. Great day of Rugby

    I love doing he extra change thing at checkouts after they have already opened the till so it can't help them with their maths. Some literally look at you like you've just handed them Roubles.

    If a government doesn't have the votes to get it's program through, that's because not enough people voted for it. I see no problem with that. The BNP got 1.9% of the vote in the last election. Many of their views are abhorrent, but that doesn't mean the people who voted for them don't deserve...

    I don't see 'a series of hung parliaments' as a point against proportional representation because that's how people vote.

    You can't just clean house with your top order though. I'd consider dropping Bell for the reasons you've said and Morgan because he's so far out of form but at you need to stick with your best players. Take out Bell for Jason Roy in my listing and you have 3 new batsmen in the Top 4, that's a...

    I rate Taylor, Morgan obviously has all the tools to be a great one day player but is just so far out of nick that he'd be unplayable if he wasn't captain. Hales should have been in from the start, he's the kind of guy who can get an innings off to a great start. Buttler up the order was the...

    Well played Bangladesh, England very obviously not good enough.

    162* off 66, some of those shots were simply exceptional, almost certainly the fastest 150 in ODIs

    Is Natalie Bennett the worst party leader ever? I'm sure she'll welcome my description of her as the anti-Farage, but I don't mean it in a good way. She's awkward, she stutters, absolutely no charisma and most shockingly can't answer even the most basic questions about funding of her parties...

    I'm in a similar situation, although my seat is far from safe which is making me really consider my vote. I think the gay marriage issue is much ado about nothing, I really believe Cameron introduced it because it's a issue he cared about, he should be lauded for putting forth a law that could...

    Party membership means nothing. In 2010 the Greens stood a candidate in only half the seats nationally, they only kept their deposit in six (SIX!!) places where they stood and three of those were in Brighton and Hove. In comparison the BNP got more than twice the number of votes nationally and...

    The aren't a national party, they only stood candidates in 59 constituencies last time and will do the same again. The same goes for the DUP, Plaid Cymru and others. This is a national debate and should only include national parties, the SNP have every right to be included in Scottish debates...

    I think it's smart electioneering, but makes for bad democracy. UKIP deserves a voice on the national stage, SNP, Plaid and the other regional parties don't.
