Former is the LibDems #HowTimesChange— Mark Pack (@markpack) March 26, 2014Have to say this is much better than a PMQs exchange on Europe. Absence of misbehaving MPs is a great bonus #NickvNigel— Mark Pack (@markpack) March 26, 2014Let's have facts in this debate. There aren't even 29m Bulgarians and Romanians to come here, as UKIP leaflet claims pic.twitter.com/aTjkC70kjr— Liberal Democrats (@LibDems) March 26, 2014Farage essentially just told Clegg "you can prove anything with facts" #cleggvfarage— Stable Genius (@MarkReckons) March 26, 2014Nick looking directly at camera with puppy dog eyes. Ah, memories of 2010… #NickvNigel— Stephen Tall (@stephentall) March 26, 2014C'mon drawbridge manufacturers. Where's your real-time, news-jacking tweets? #NickvNigel— Mark Pack (@markpack) March 26, 2014Better for Clegg to voice anecdotal egs – Siemens in Hull – to animate his facts, than try to win with net contribution stats #LBCDebate— Sunder Katwala (@sundersays) March 26, 2014Big difference between @nick_clegg quoting specific multinationals and @Nigel_Farage "i spoke to a business [unnamed] yesterday" #LBCdebate— Joey Jones (@joeyfjones) March 26, 2014Doubt Clegg + Farage shifting many supporters between their parties – but big gain for both is from Lab + Con not being present #NickvNigel— Mark Pack (@markpack) March 26, 2014Clegg says we'd have to renegotiate trade agreements with 77 different countries if we left. Never heard a sceptic explain how we'd do that— Tim Shipman (@ShippersUnbound) March 26, 2014Interesting: both Tory and Labour leaning commentators online seem much more impressed with Clegg than Farage #NickvNigel— Mark Pack (@markpack) March 26, 2014Police say Euro arrest warrant is "vital tool against organised crime" – UKIP says abolish it. #NickvNigel— Stephen Gilbert MP (@stephen_gilbert) March 26, 2014Most powerful point made so far in #NickvNigel – pic.twitter.com/OL9jgh6AeJ— Mark Pack (@markpack) March 26, 2014Biggest round of applause so far for @nick_clegg's defence of equal marriage #NickvNigel— Mark Pack (@markpack) March 26, 2014Farage admits he made up his claim that 75% of laws come from Europe. The @HouseofCommons Library analysis says it's 6.8% #NickvNigel— Julian Huppert (@julianhuppert) March 26, 2014Don't let Great Britain become Little Britain – why the UK should stay in the EU http://t.co/ub3dcUrbkX— Richard Branson (@richardbranson) March 26, 2014Farage blames the EU, not Putin or extremists, for bloodshed in Ukraine #NickvNigel— Mark Pack (@markpack) March 26, 2014Clegg is winning this imho. Sounding more reasonable and I say that as an Outer #LBCdebate— Tim Montgomerie (@montie) March 26, 2014.@LibDems want us to be Great Britain, not little England, says Nick Clegg in his closing statement. #NickvNigel— Lib Dem Press Office (@LibDemPress) March 26, 2014Nick Clegg's closing statements #NickvNigel pic.twitter.com/vDHnlRekw9— Liberal Democrats (@LibDems) March 26, 2014This old technology wireless radio thing still has some legs, doesn't it?— Mark Pack (@markpack) March 26, 2014#LBCdebate #NickvNigel lots of Tories in the spin room desperately trying to comment on a debate they are supposedly ignoring…— Julia Goldsworthy (@jgoldsworthy) March 26, 2014Win tickets to the next #NickvNigel debate http://t.co/U17c6MMS1Y— Liberal Democrats (@LibDems) March 26, 2014YouGov poll: 57% back Farage, 36% Clegg.
