Leaders Debate

Sorry, why is the policy on Trident crazy? Tell me, when are we going to use Nuclear weapons in the next 25 years? We simply won't.

There will come a day when Korea/Iran have Nuclear weapons. And if we go down the route of scrapping Trident and in turn scrapping our Nuclear weapons, as one the ONLY G8 country in the world without Nuclear weapons, we would be the first to be attacked.

Do you really want us to be wiped off the planet? at least if we have Trident, we have a deterrent.

[lazerman]

We talking about now, not in the next 40/50 years tbh.

[StefanWolves]

The problem is NOW. Iran and North Korea could have Nuclear weapons RIGHT NOW for all we know.

[lazerman]

I lol'd

They wouldnt attack, if so, it would result a world war 3 nuclear war.

Nick looked to be doing the best, although I think we should keep and maintain trident... we may not use it, but it is a deterrent and will make other countries think twice about starting a conflict.

Gordon Brown just coming out with bull and lies. Why is he PM? He looks and sounds like he doesn't care about the country, just about ticking boxes and meeting targets. We need somebody in power who wants Britain to be a strong and happy nation with justice.

I would rather the Conservatives or the Liberal Democrats win the election than Labour. Labour have had 13 years to do whatever, yet only now they introduce a load of new things to make people happy. I doubt they would put them into action.

Nick was an idiot throughout that. He repeated the same old crap and got in the way of the proper debates. What a waste of space.

Repeated what crap?

i think Cameron's main argument was "why haven't you done it then" to anything that gord says. what gordon says makes more sense economically. Cameron seems to think that economy=fiscal situation of the government which isn't true. I think you could tell who knew what they were on about between those two. The fact is that the country can never be perfect and especially over the last few years the government at the mid-top level has lost its way - whether gordon can realistically change this without personnel changes is up for debate.

Clegg looked fairly good but he didn't get involved in the debate too much, he didn't try to spark many 3-way arguments. I think the Lib Dems throughout have been the most honest with their policies.
