Anyone watching? I thought I would make a trhead so people can discuss it live.

Here's a link to watch it live... It may or may not work, I can't guarantee anything.

Yeah watching it now. I was a little underwhelmed by the manifesto launches so hopefully tonight will be a little more interesting.

On the first topic, immigration, I'm giving the victory to Nick Clegg.

Clegg dominated the immigration issue. Everyone keeps saying he has no chance at winning the election, but he might be able to prove himself a force tonight.

However, I have a feeling that Brown will win the debate over all... I'll probably wrong on that though.

The sad thing is people seem to want to vote for based solely on the fact that he's not Gordon Brown.

Boo... you need a Username, was totally going to watch if it only took 1 click.

Well I know they manage it in Australia (and apparantly Canada too according to Clegg). Presumably Visas will be granted based on the area where the job is actually requiring that skill or perhaps more so that the area in question can actually accommodate more immigration. The incentive to stay is that they have a job there and according to Clegg won't be allowed to work elsewhere.

A cap on immigration would be a nightmare, especially if international students were included in this. It could be financial ruin for universities.

Still no deal, think it's the same reason Hulu doesn't work for you guys.  Ah well. Let me know who wins.  You seem rather undecided as of yet.

I'm sensing a pattern in Brown's responses, apparently everything is fine in all areas!

Police on the beat is always a bit of a populous policy. Extra beat policy don't really prevent crime, the public just think that they are safer. The beureaucracy needs to go along with ridiculous targets so that police can get on with their job and deal with crime as they see fit without the worry of having to make 'quick' cases just to hit targets.
