I've been watching the debate for an hour now and so far my mind hasn't changed. Electing Brown again would allow him and Labour to keep destroying the country, as they have done for the past 13 years. Also, do we really want a Scottish PM???? They have their own devolved parliament. English MP's have no say in what happens in Scotland, whereas Scottish MP's have the right to vote on English bills. It's hardly fair. The West Lothian Question really needs to be sorted.
The Conservatives are the only party to offer a real choice. Although Nick Clegg does make some valid points, let's face it, he will never be Prime Minister. The only reason to vote Lib Dem is when the Conservatives have no chance of winning the seat, so the vote would stop Labour. I really hope people actually make a choice and people do not vote Lib Dem if they are discontented with the other parties. It's also worthy to note, that David Cameron is the only leader to actually have apologised for the expenses scandal. This is when Britain needs to be decisive. A hung parliament would be disastrous. The last time it happened, the parliament lasted for 8 months. In a recession, it would be simply stupid to have to go through that again, thinking about how much it actually costs to hold an election. Hung parliaments are not more democratic and are not fairer. They result in weak governments, weak policies and a weak country. Let's vote Conservative and try to actually change the country.
On a completely irrelevant note, I think it's funny how all of the leaders are wearing their party colours, apart from Brown, who's wearing a nice pink tie!!
