If they were going to take the piss with the new proposals, why not get George Galloway involved? Opportunity missed. "The fox has his den. The bee has his hive. The stoat, has, uh... his stoat-hole... but only man chooses to make his nest in an investment opportunity.” Stewart Lee

A meaningless spectacle where in politics shows its true colours, that its all about winning, rather than being right, by demonstrating that the only skill required to run a country effectively is public speaking. Its like deciding the 400 metres, by measuring who has the biggest feet. "One Nation Under God, has turned into One Nation Under the Influence of One Drug" [Link]

This is getting even more ridiculous: When reports of the new proposals emerged on Thursday, DUP leader Peter Robinson said he would be writing to the BBC and ITV to ask why his party was not included in the new offer Optimistic as ever

[Link] 7 people on stage will be a pointless exercise. Well if the Greens weren't invited Dave was going to take his oval Rugga shaped ball away ...basically because the Tories have the BBC (which is actually right of centre and not left wing) the Sun, The Daily Mail, the Telegraph and the Daily Express, the Tories worry that a real live shot of posh boy will be hammered by Ed Miliband who while admittedly a geek can actually debate very well. The Tory papers can't control that so they don't want it to happen. The Greens always present themselves well too when out of the Tory Paper information monopoly too - so Bring it on.

Invite 32 parties and have a knockout. The contestants can be seeded, like Wimbledon, or just random pairings. Get the pollsters to arrange a fair voting system to determine the winners of each debate until the final and winner is declared. I'd love to see Farage v Galloway as a good lively debating pair.
