Quick summary? Missed it :(

Everyone in the room just pulled all the economic policies to bits, and he didn't look pleased, in fact he looked shaken and shocked. I think he probably thought he was going to shine through like NG or something and got a rude awakening.

You can catch it on iplayer later today

His hairy ears scare me! He seems quite shocked that Darling was ripping him apart too, probabily thought Labour was going to suck upto him! I tell you Lib Dems are the worse of them all! I would rather a right out Labour win than a Labour/Lib Dem coalition and this comming from a conservative

I didn't expect Vince to crumble THAT easily.. a naive and unintelligent man he certainly is not. I wonder what is up with him

He got complacent after last Thursday and polls after? This should serve as a warning shot for tomorrow. I think the leaders debate tomorrow are going to follow a similar pattern
 
Not bad, on par with Alistair Darling i thought, much better than the chancellors debate a couple of weeks back

Alistair is one of the very few Labour MP's i have any respect for. He also held his own

I have to see this, Vince is by far and away the most qualified out of the three potential Chancellors. It must have been the policy that knocked him down, it can't have been anything else (and in all fairness, that's quite a big 'thing').

I agree with the Alistair Darling comments as well. This maybe naive, but he's one of the only politicians that I actually trust now, and seemingly, one of only a handful that are honest. :o

It was policy. Like Ken Clarke said at the Con press conf earlier today - 70% of the time he agrees with Vince, and his analysis is 9 times out of 10 correct. But he just "cannot understand" why Vince signs up to such sloppy policy (mansion tax, £17bn of tax cuts in the next couple of years).

Mr Cable said it was incorrect to suggest that a hung parliament would result in political instability, saying instead that it would be better for the economy if politicians cooperated more.

"They [the Tories] are losing the election and they are starting to panic," he added.

Mr Darling said the Tories have "no credible plans, that is what makes markets roll their eyes".

Well fingers crossed Nick Clegg will get the same treatment tomorrow, But I doubt it Gordon will be sucking up to Nick to try and make Cameron look like the bad guy

some of what vince says is just ridiculously stupid - its as if he doesn't really understand economics at all. its bizarre, because he has also said some good things.

maybe because the competition is so bad - darling is a mouthpeice for the economic moron that is brown and osborne doesn't seem to know what he's doing - ken clarke could rip them all to peices.

It's deeply disingenuous to state that the Lib Dems plan to cut £17bn in taxes. In fact their total policy is a slight increase in taxation. But unlike the other parties they're not going to merely fluff at the edges - they're going in with some serious changes.
