Cameron is such a coward.
About right
Curious as to how much of the nation's interest this will have taken.
The expectations were so low for this - he walked through it as the center ground candidate. What's more tomorrow is going to be all about how Cameron won't debate him.... again!
Probably got around 4 million voters watching. Not as much as a main BBC programme but that's a hell of a lot!
I thought Sturgeon did best of those on stage. SNP will likely be locked into top spot in Scotland I think.
The one who shocked me the most was the Green leader. She actually sounded sensible which is very concerning given her policies are anything but.
[And you're missing a 'with'].
Cameron's absence may be part of the political chatter for a while. I doubt it'll make a significant impact.
It's making Ed's personal rating going up and up and up..
So SNP winning Labour seats if that's true clearly help the Tories. It seems to answer the question as to which way the LD's would go if Lab+SNP = Tory seats and LD hold the balance of power.
I thought Nicola and the Indian girl, Leanne, did best
All this "I don't want Farage holding the balance of power".
News flash: Farage won't be holding the balance of power.
Remind me - how many days left to go? Quite a few. Did anyone today actually do anything significant to justify the claims made for these debates ?
Comes out at 70,000 houses a year.
Which seems about right to house 300,000 net immigrants.

Voters walked out of a Tory campaign event – leaving flailing David Cameron red faced as he defended Conservative cuts.
The Prime Minister hoped to win over mobile phone workers with a town hall-style question-and-answer session.
But the bid backfired when they subjected him to a 42-minute grilling him over food banks, legal aid cuts and slashing benefits for the most vulnerable.
The flustered PM, sweat glistening at the base of his neck, watched as up to 30 of the 200-strong audience at O2 in Leeds walked out during his appearance, preferring to go back to work than listen to his electioneering.
I guess I'm just not heavily enough involved with the political scene. :-)
We need an abstentionous party winning mainland Labour seats too.

Don't care about electoral tactics, it's wrong not to represent 30% of public opinion.
Pre-debate: Con 1.54
Post-debate: Con 1.53

I am, however, off for the night. Goodnight, everyone.

Lulz.

Miliband: 20%
Farage: 17.5%

Bloody Hell.

Audience member: 'I thought Nicola Sturgeon was great. I was going to vote Ukip.' #leadersdebate
LOL
(Not what I thought over the 90 minutes overall)
Which makes Cameron and Clegg's decision to sit this one out even more questionable.
For the Cons.
The impression now is that the SNP want to run the UK on their terms. No wonder Ed said he wouldn't have a coalition with them. It wasn't enough. Ed came over as someone who was more done to than doing. Nicola was strong but Nige was right - plenty of Brits won't like what they heard Nicola saying.
Ed looks weak and those posters (with Salmond albeit) have never looked more acute.

The real loser tonight was the BBC. A real disgrace.
I glad I missed if that was the telling moment.
He became a Voodoo Pole!
In Leeds.
FFs....
Spot On.
You're not strong enough': Nightmare for Miliband as Sturgeon insists he cannot get to No.10 without her help
Do I need to quote the source?
And whatever Ed is on, I don't want any thanks...
