Equally amusing was Clegg to his right shouting "excuses, excuses"

Very poor of our so-called "unbiased" media not to rip Cameron to shreds over this. Personally I think every national party who has an MP should be included in any tv debates which, despite my intense dislike of them and virtually everything they stand for, includes UKIP.
Personally, I don't see the point of the whole thing. Its just cheap point scoring and proves nothing and is little more than an extended version of Question Time, which itself is now little more than a joke.
However, if you are going to do it, you either include EVERYBODY (including the SNP, who could easily end up in a position of power themselves), or you simply have it between Cameron and Milliband, as these are seriously the only PM candidates and the only thing the viewing audience are wanting to see, is how any potential leader stands up in the public spotlight.
And so you aim towards the sky, And you'll rise high today, Fly away, Far away, Far from pain....

I'm in company given the number of universities, schools, local authorities and even Italians who use the word. You need to distinguish between the idea of a piece of paper (our corrupted version of the word) and the Latin concept. Agendae being the feminine plural of agenda in the nomative.

As it is an election for the UK Parliament the SNP should be included even on English TV as they are likely to have a huge say in the running of the country post-election.

At the end of the day these guys are answerable to us the electorate. I would have thought - if you believe you have a strong case - you would want a platform to tell as many people as possible about your stand point?
What is Cameron scared - surely not Ed for goodness sake. The one sure thing that will give the Tories an edge is to get Ed up there for everyone to see.
He should not have a choice he is a public servant at the end of the day.
Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.
