first election debate in the uk

It was a very interesting debate between the 3 main party leaders: Nick Clegg, David Cameron and Gordon Brown. I'm too lazy to elaborate here so I'll just jot down some quotes.

Nick Clegg on the duel between David Cameron and Gordon Brown:
The more they attack each other, the more they sound like one another.
I must say that there were quite a few jabs from Gordon Brown towards David Cameron:
You can airbrush your posters but you cannot airbrush your promises.
This is not Question Time – this is answer time, David.

And one very good one regarding posters like the above that the Tories put up everywhere.
I'm grateful, by the way, to David for putting up all these posters about crime and me. You know there's no newspaper editor who has done as much for me in the last two years – because my face is smiling on these posters. I'm very grateful to you and Lord Ashcroft for funding these.
