the debate was a despicable farce just a hand picked immigration favouring audience designed to favour new labours idiotic stance on immigration this will lose labour the election. not the fiddleing or the banking failures. It was so obviously fixed it almost made me puke i had to switch off we need a proper debate with an audience that represents proper rank and file voters .....soon. it just highlited the fact that the bbc is a propaganda peddleing nu labour crap organisation who must think the british people are stupid christ weve all had enough and they cant see it
