There were some quite good comments on Qiestion Time last night but the best was a remark early on from an audience member that he had bet his wife a few pounds the Tory representative would say "stablr and secure" and "coalition of chaos" the first time he was given an opportunity to speak. Sure enough, he won his bet.

All elections are serious: the decisions taken affect people lives for years. This time it is even more critical than usual. It is unacceptable to have the whole things driven by empty slogans.


So i propose we buy air horns and give them a blast every time any party just trots out its slogans. I want a serious discussion and if that's what it takes to point the party is not thinking, we should do it.
