If I was Farage I'd be making a complaint about that audience, so biased.
Sturgeon is over shaking hand with the audience, many of whom she knows by first name anywayTongue Out

Its a London audience.

London is not an English city so they are naturally going to hate Nigel Farage an English patriot.

The only one who really made a t1t of him/herself was Nicola Bennett who should a completely lack of control when she suddenly increased her decibel level significantly by shouted out IT'S MY TURN NOW, and raised her voice significantly several times "ED MILIBANN, ED MILIBAND", showed a complete lack of political savviness by not biding her time, as an immigrant herself her views on immigration are of course going to be biased, but how biased she was was staggering, also she sounds like she's on the verge of breaking down after every word, very very shaky permanence as always.

Leanne wood is very meak and forgettable and can't do anything off the cuff, just looks at her notes the whole time, clearly they all knew the questions that were coming though the others bar Bennett chose to be more fluent.

Miliband is just too polished, staring down the camera doesn't do it for me. Not even offering a referendum on the EU wont do it for a lot of other people either.

Stergent was up to her usual tricks of deliberately over talking Miliband and Farage just as they were about to hit a nerve and went into lawyer mode diverting the point away.

Farage had balls to challenge the impartiality of the audience but it was just okish performance, didn't do himself harm or favours in particular.

The audience had CLEARLY been hand picked not to support UKIP, I think it's fair to see it's the independent body that picked them weren't really independent.

Too many people are affected one way of another by immigration so the tiresome "stigmatising of immigrants" line doesn't really wash anymore, only today it was said one in 10 children didn't get their first choice primary school, that's 100,000 parents who are bothered. I'm no Farage fan, but he came across as the only one who doesn't bury his head in the sand, still think they will fade badly after this election.

With a bit of luck, and people having common sense, they will fade badly BEFORE the election.

milliband found himself wrestling with pigs tonight.

farage was foolish in attacking the audience; it wasn't biased, it was a london metropolitan audience, it doesn't experience the same sorts of problems with immigration that other parts of the country do and it has bought the media myth and the careless bias that farage is leading some sort of extreme right wing party.

which he is not (in case you hadn't realised)
