The debate. Advice for Brown, Cleg and Cameron

Gorden is the only one who has been doing anything other than just talk for the past thirteen years, so that makes him an easy target.

Gorden, how do you deal with government waste when it is the vast army of civil servants that actually run the place day to day? Tell us about the practical issues you deal with every day and the areas where you are proud of the changes that a Labour government has made. It may help to compare that with the actual attitudes and behaviour of typical tories.

David, the cheap example of waste by a police chief some where in the county is old school party politics and there will all ways be an example to be found, even in a Tory government. Tell us more than "motherhood and apple pie" and why families are good. You need to be specific about how you are going to improve society.

Nick, You have some good specific plans and should stick to them. don't all ways ignore what Gorden has just said when you are critical mode as you did a few times in the debate. Trying to be too distant from both of the others leaves you no where, particularly as Labour has done a lot that your party approves of. Stick to attacking the Conservatives.

Good luck to all in the next debate.
