15th April 2010Fight Night

So it’s Fight Night! The first ever live debate between the party leaders during a United Kingdom General Election.

The media is getting very hyped up about it and there is a raging debate on twitter regarding what hashtag should be used (although the winning hashtag today was #ashtag on account of the volcanic activity in Iceland that caused the shut down of British airspace).

The key tonight for the leaders is not to fail, not to make some awful gaff, not to look bored and particularly not to make any weird faces that might be caught in stills and splashed all over tomorrow’s papers.
