Election Debates
First topic message reminder :
A number of debates are taking place. Below is May v Corbyn. What is everyones' view on the debate? who do you think came out on top? Did the debate change your mind on who you will vote for or convince you who to vote for if you were undecided?

I'm not a fan of the debates in the first place, they work in America because it's 1 v 1 and you have a clear differentiation between the two parties but over here it's a struggle to understand why some of them are there.

Obviously no 606v2 members in that audience then as Angus Robertson's remarks were very well received by people largely outwith Scotland.

So were some of Paul Nuttall's remarks

I don't live in Scotland but he didn't do the SNP cause any harm in my opinion....The Plaid girl always struggles to get in a debate..
Think they need a bigger hitter.

Night and day were the reactions. He got plenty of boos and jeers - even UKIP members are offering reaction just now admitting how poorly his views were received but they say it was because Cambridge (venue) was largely a remain area.

Okay fair enough but that is taking credit for Lib Dem policies adopted by the coalition.
It also glosses over the trend under the current government.

Wow party taking credit...shocker..
This debate hasn't shifted a vote....Any good work Rudd has done is countered by May not turning up.
SNP have everything to lose..
Plaid and Ukip are wasting time.

Re: Election Debates
Agree their Truss.
It's not made me any clearer on where I'll vote, but I can't see any good work from Amber Rudd. She had a chance to be up next when May leaves. Feel she has shot herself in the foot tonight.
And from the moment Corbyn ambushed her by a last minute announcement to take part, May was always going to get attacked for not doing so.

I have to disagree. I see SNP winning around three quarters of all seats in Scotland so can't see that it can be seen as a loss. Sure it may not be as many seats as they won last time around but consider this. The SNP's record in general elections since the Thatcher era is this:- 1979 (2 seats), 1983 (2 seats), 1987 (3 seats), 1992 (3 seats), 1997 (6 seats), 2001 (4 seats), 2005 (6 seats), 2010 (6 seats) and 2015 (56 seats).

Re: Election Debates
You admitted yourself as biased. I am still on the fence and have no political allegiances. I'd consider myself as open minded as anyone watching the debate, so giving my impartial view of the it.
Audience didn't come across as impartial though. Seemed very left wing.
One thing I think we can all agree on. UKIP are finished and Paul Nuttall is lining up the nails for their coffin himself

Don't see this debate changing much which will suit the Tories fine.
Corbyns late move to turn up needed to see him land some big blows to justify top billing. Don't think he got close

Cambridge the city was always going to be very left-wing. Like I said before, I'm baffled the Tories have placed it as a target to take.

Re: Election Debates
I'm reading comments on the bbc website and it seems corbyn is getting a lot of praise (I think most of his praise is because he turned up and at never though).
I think the debate was a mess as there were far too many people and no one could make their point without being talked over. It should be like it was in 2010 with the top 3 partys only.
Amber rudd saying that she was happy to sell weapons to saudia arabia who have an atrocious human rights record in their war in yemen was a big blow to her.

That argument falls down when he wasn't going to bother himself then changed his mind at the last minute because of Diane Abbott.

Only really makes sense if it was solely between him and May.

I thought he came across extremely well, got his points across well and did a good job to harness his desire to smack Nuttall.

News breaking as well that Amber Rudd was fed to the lions despite having a bereavement in her family a few days ago. Makes May's cowardice even greater.

No, I was just informing people of definitions. Any definition would involve the purpose being peace anyway.
Glad you've checked the dictionary now though.

Do you genuinely believe that she has a legitimate reason for not being there? She's scared that her performance would have a negative impact on voters (not confident in her policies?), so is able to sit on an easy lead.

The very same people who used Neville Chamberlain's appeasement of Hitler's Germany a few pages back are the same ones who are now unaware of it's actual meaning and it's my interpretation of why Corbyn pursued that course of action that I'm critical of.

Really?
All we have heard ad nauseum from May is the term 'Strong and Stable'. Well dodging election debates (an election she called early remember) hardly quantifies her as strong - quite the opposite actually. More like nervous and weak-willed. As for stable - well if you call umpteen u-turns on policies as stable then I am flabberghasted.

Re: Election Debates
To be honest Craig I stopped paying too much attention to your opinion a long time ago, it's the same crap over and over again, you never actually say anything and never once try to back up your criticisms.
I don't see the point of a television debate involving seven party leaders five of whom are irrelevant to be honest but do find her reluctance to debate Jeremy Corbyn one on one a little bit galling as she's had the better of him in PMQ's for the past 9 months.
I do find the criticism of changing tact based on public reception a little bit odd, the Conservatives have pushed out some ideas that were ill received so have retracted them as I'd expect of any democratically nominated party.

Re: Election Debates
The Tories negotiated with the IRA for years anyway.
Corbyn has denounced the bombings on TV and also did so in 1994, signing a parliamentary motion. There's loads to read on this if people want to.
I do enjoy the weak pacifist Corbyn who is also painted as the guy loves bombings.

It's an opinion based on second-hand information and the opinions and feelings of others. Understandable, but flawed.

Re: Election Debates
Didn't think a great deal of last night's debate, really. Think there's some gravity to the idea that these kind of debates only really favour the smaller parties, and certainly not the ruling one, whoever they are at the time.
As for the old Corbyn IRA guff, I'm really not sure why it's still such a big talking point. Corbyn should just swat away any further questions concerning it with the simple line that he is / was sympathetic to the grievances and / or cause, but not to the methods. A perfectly reasonable stance, and if it's good enough for Alec Reid, it's good enough for Corbyn.
It's the double standards which get me more than anything. Don't pretend you're morally outraged by Corbyn's affiliation with IRA members if you're going to turn a blind eye to Britain enabling Saudi Arabia to murder thousands of Yemenis with weapons we've sold them. I know which one I find more distasteful. If Corbyn's actions make him a threat to our national security, what the hell does arming Saudi Arabia, the chief hotbed of Islamic extremism, qualify as? Good business, presumably.
Back to the debates, anyway. Corbyn not at his best. Farron not bad, but needs to ease up on the habit of answering so many questions with anecdotal evidence designed to get a bit of a racket from the audience as a means of avoiding real issues. Lucas pretty good. Rudd not too great, but then again she was set up to be the fall guy to a certain degree. Nuttall was alright and at least answers questions directly and honestly, even if his politics are on the wane and he looks like Eddie from Bottom. Robertson...Well, I abhor much of the SNP and their crude tricks, but God help me, for whatever reason there's just something I like about him. He does have considerable skill as a performer and talks sense, albeit he too plays to the crowd for the odd cheap laugh a bit too much.
Almost forgot Leanne Wood. Says it all, really.

And yet if it wasn't for people like Jeremy Corbyn who attempted to make peace, the suffering your family endured and that of others would be sustained to this day.

On the other hand Margaret Thatcher managed to make herself unpopular on all sides and it's not an exaggeration to argue she prolonged the conflict by a decade - someone who didn't know how to make peace and someone who didn't understand Ireland.
I respect your opinion and I respect your own personal experiences, but I really think the British public at large should educate themselves on the war here before they point fingers at anyone.

He turned up in desperation and contributed nothing, it was said during the debate she was meant to be going which leads me to think you didn't watch.
