What an absolute jeffing ponyHe is hoping this dies a death, but with so many parties now involved (at the request of Cameron who now calls the thing chaotic) I think this will get trotted out quite a bit. The odd thing is, Cameron would give Miliband a drubbing in a head to head.

I thought the last bunch of TV debates were a farce of pre planned sound bites by highly trained political androids. Bunch of ****s trying to act as though they were down to earth. The matra of I agree with Dick (sic) said it all.

That said Cameron is proved a hypocrite when his comments before the last election are replayed or requoted.

I don't think that Miliband has much charisma but he has far more integrity than Cameron and I don't think the electorate are as naive about these things as some people seem to think.

Welcome back Elwood , getting ready to spout lies on behalf of your beloved Tories during the election campaign are you ?
At least you covered your nonsense by being slightly polite.

I am not sure if TV debates change the way that most people vote but squirming to get out of such debates doesn't reflect well on Cameron. It's quite possible that he loses more votes by not debating than he may have done were he to fully participate.

I agree with you Elwood on Blair's New Labour.
But Milliband at least offers some hope for socialists. Not enough yet but some.
Cameron knows this and has scuttled off back under his slimy rock
As have the usual Tory boys on this board.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-31771198 (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-31771198)This is almost a similar situation to the General Election that Brown should have called, was going to call, but didn't call. The top of the slippery slope is when a leader obviously lacks leadership - and Cameron has Ed Balls'd up big time.

If you really think Miliband has more integrity you are pretty naive yourself.The best way to test this , take 20 ordinary grass routes MP's across the parties ,no big names, examine their integrity and connections, then make up you mind based on who best reflects your views and ethnics.

I think that the pitiful thing about contemporary politics is that so few politicians have experience of life outside the political system. Politicians from all parties used to have high degrees of integrity on the whole. Of course there were some crooks and shysters but they generally seemed to be in it to try, however misguidedly, to make a genuine difference.

Cameron rests comfortably on the notion that Milipede is not seen as much of a debater , and a bit of a wally, by the British Public .

The problem is, Miliband has usually performed a bit better than people expect him to in major speeches or in debates etc.

Oily Dave and his oiks cannot afford to have the public thinking that maybe that Ed is not that bad after all - nor for it to become the talking point.

In other words, Cameron and his team know that they are merely a poor choice over a supposedly poorer choice.

Oily Dave has made a pigs ear of this. True to form.

Interesting article in the guardian from Alistair Campbell who said that Cameron was running scared of Milliband - then when asked admitted that he had also advised Blair not to debate either.

Two leaders within 5% of each other - why should Cameron give him a free shot ?

Milliband would do the same.

My own personal opinion - Milliband is likely to do more damage to himself in a debate without anyone else being present.

A Labour and SNP minority Govt would be interesting and would last last till about Nov.
A Tory / Lib Dem again coalition - may last a bit longer. But Lib Dems will be wiped out - the SNP will be the 3rd party that no one wants to deal with.

We'll have another general election by Nov I think , when people will revert to the usual labour or conservative , with a few other parties taking up the slack.
