Television Debates

So it's the first of three television leaders debates on today, which will be shown on ITV at 8.30pm. These will be between Gordon Brown, David Cameron and Nick Clegg, leaders of the three mainstream political parties in the UK and will feature questions from the audience members about policies and manifestos. This is generally get a good understanding of party policy, what is being done to improve (save) our country and of course for the party leaders to try and gain an upper hand against each other.
The two others debates will be on over the next few weeks, with the next on Sky and the last on the BBC. Again I will recommend, as I did the manifestos, that you give these a watch as they promise to be very interesting and may offer just a bit of political banter. Even if you aren't in to politics, it is nice to know where the country could be heading (which is down the gutter unless we do something about it).
I will be posting again after, with some notes on what I thought of the debate. Sadly not the Sky one, as I'm too poor and hate the capitalist money grabbers, but I will be doing them on the BBC one, as this will be the most interest of all three and could change the course of the election.
