If we must have these constitutionally monstrous "Leaders' Debates", then you should be in them if you are fielding 326 candidates.
Simple as that.
This is an election to the House of Commons.
If, by fielding 326 candidates, you are theoretically capable of winning an overall majority in that House (and as of today, the Lib Dems are well short of that), then you should be in, and that's that.
Not that we ought to have these things at all.
In other words restrict the devates to Labour and the Tories-coz they've done a great job of running the country for the last 50 years. Golly...
ReplyDeleteRestrict the debates to the two useless Establishment parties. Ooh, what a rebel you are.
It was glorious to see the Greens reaction to Ofcom ruling correctly that UKIP is a major party entitled to two election commercials.
As Ofcom pointed out the Greens have demonstrated no national appeal outside Brighton.
When did they last win a national election or two seats? What an absurd joke they are.
Back to Brighton where they belong.
Thanks to UKIP, these debates will never happen. So it does have its uses.
