Couple of things spring to mind:
1) Just saw Milliband being interviewed on Virgin - he actually came across as a nice bloke, down to earth; the other two always appear to talk down to you.
2) Can I vote for the SNP? If so, I think I will. Would be funny to have the SNP ruling the UK.

A whole THREE minutes from each of them on a range of four subjects. Not exactly deep and meaningful.
Indeed, too many people taking part, too little time and apparently after the initial answer is given by each person it's a free-for-all. So it'll be a slanging match with them all talking over each other.I think Nigel Farage has the best chance of "winning" whatever that even means, however I think the other six will gang up on him, so he won't have chance to say much of importance. Other than that it'll be the usual spin from the main parties and the usual un-realistic pipe-dreams from the rest.
It'll just be an hour or however long it is of Ed saying 'Let me say this' before entirely avoiding the question.
Hoping it finishes Natalie Bennett off, although the format suits her lack of understanding insofar as she won't have long enough to dig the depth of hole she'd find herself in in a proper debate.
