Farage - blasted it.
Clegg - came across well.
Cameron - also did well, but I'll give Clegg the edge on personality and an actual sense of humour.
Milliband - Beyond awful.
I was surprised how pugnacious the audience were with him. Did someone in the BBC not get the "make sure it's a 100% Labour audience" memo?
They're probably having an enquiry as we speak.
You might care to look at your own poll. Nigel Farage is quite understandably in first place but who's in the close second place? Why, it's Miliband. Based on his performance rather than party affiliation, Clegg ought perhaps to score higher.
Guess who's currently in last place in your own poll: Cameron
Nicola Sturgeon. I know that the OP has forgotten to put her name in the poll and I am sure this is an oversight and not just another case of Englishcentric posting which can happen on DS

It was a case of not knowing she was on. If she was on BBC Scotland or whatever it's called, I had no idea. I don't have access to the service.
Farage? must have come on when i made a cup of tea,
Cameron avoided questions, especially child benefit, fact he side stepped the question left no doubt he will cut child benefit.
Clegg. well.only thing he could say was his party will keep the other 2 in check.
Miliband started a bit slowly with some tough questions but answered them honestly. finished very strongly and came out of it very well. most sincere politician by a mile.
Farage was the clear winner tonight answering every question concisely and truthfully. He put to bed a lot of misconceptions about UKIP. His best performance in the GE debates by far.
2nd place goes to Cameron who put in a decent performance. Still don't believe him on the EU referendum promise and he was unclear on the public spending cuts.
Not a good night for Milliband. Things like the economy and the deficit are where he really fell down. Also why no immigration targets? Not convinced he wants to address it really.
To me Clegg by a whisker. I didn't see Farage but it would be apples and pears really to vote for him too.
I would say Clegg too...followed by Miliband and then Cameron. I felt that the first two were the most honest and genuine. Cameron is just so slippery. I don't trust him at all.
The format was almost identical. Farage won hands down.
With respect, Farage wasn't there. It was the threesome that was Cameron, Clegg and Miliband. I detect from your enthusiasm that you are a Kipper...so...potentially biased in his favour?

Er he was there just on a bit later. It were exactly the same format too. Your bias against Nigel Farage is quite extreme. I get the impression you are not a fan of democracy?

I did and it was a good public performance and he had his share of difficult questions just like the other three party leaders.

but none of them it was a stupid concept all in the same building but no face to face debate. That sums up #ge2015 perfectly
Cameron farts
Miliband stumbles on step
If the markets freaked out over the Scottish vote god help us when its the EU vote.
Cameron avoided questions, especially child benefit, fact he side stepped the question left no doubt he will cut child benefit.

Why? What more did you expect of him? He's bleedin' rubbish.

You and your alleged bias. Remember what has been said to you on this. Bias lies with the viewers and listeners only.

Or perhaps and rather more likely that BBC left wing bias is a myth?
Kinda shows how polls and those most vocal on the Internet can diverge.
