New poll out that suggests that the SNP will win every single seat in Scotland:

SNP 54%
LAB 20%
CON 17%

Never thought I'd see the day Labour would be wiped out in Scotland and the Tories only being 3pts behind them...

Thought the same thing. Over the past year hes gathered immense following with his views on politics and the interview can quite easily decide this years election. Cameron turned down the opportunity to go on, and he's definitely missed a trick. Ed gets his points across well IMO, really good interview from him. No wonder the Tory papers are out in force attacking the interview.

Clever by Ed this. The 'YouTube Generation' is full of Young people who can vote, and seeing this can quite easily influence them. Very clever move by Ed.

It says something when that was probably one of the better interviews I've seen as the interviewer/interviewee weren't talking over each other for half of it.

It's a shame in the comments Labour have made on energy that they haven't once seemed to confront the big elephant in the room that is Gazprom. I think I'm right in saying that they're the biggest gas supplier in Europe, and Russia have made it pretty clear that they're happy to use them for political ends.

Whilst the EU are doing their best to ensure Europe isn't as beholden to Gazprom for our energy as we used to be, they're still a major piece of the puzzle. Can we imagine Putin taking the tough talk from Miliband? Can we imagine him being tough with Obama and telling him how important it is that America starts exporting energy again? They're the biggest producer in the world after all, yet have an embargo on exports.

He hasn't mentioned any of those things, which seems a bit of a shame to me, as they're probably more influential to energy prices than bashing the likes of British Gas and EDF.

He's an absolute bell in my opinion. I think cameron probably should have interviewed with him too though because of brands following.
 
Could anyone have imagined the quiet, pipe smoking Wilson telling Lyndon Johnson to shove it when asked to join in the Vietnam horror? People are capable of surprising things.

The Tories need to call themselves the Scottish Conservative Party, if they want any seats up there.......
