If you believe Wood will do better than May in a debate then you are absolutely nuts, fair play.
Anyway - May should just refuse to debate them. What's to gain for her in having a debate?
She could spend the next 8 weeks having spa treatments and will end up with the biggest majority we've seen in donkey's years.
What an absolute joke this all is.
Wood's strong point is not debating but neither is it May's, it is Sturgeon strong point, I notice you have not commented on Sturgeon v May. I would not be surprised if May avoided a leaders debate as Sturgeon will take her hands down although it would have no effect on May winning an election by dominating England.

I have literally no idea who I am going to vote for.
There is only two ways you can vote, either for right wing Brit Nat austerity parties like Labour, Conservative, Lib-Dem, UKIP etc or centre/centre left for a social justice party like Plaid/SNP.

Con you reckon? I'd suggest UKIP were pushing at an open door.
It was a con Loh, as immigrants have not caused the economic plight of the disaffected, and UKIP at a leadership level, know that to be the case, yet argued it anyway.
I've said many times, that the dual impact of technology and globalisation cause two things - one, is cheap goods for all of us, two, is adverse impact on the 'traditional' heavy industry in the 'first' world, and those who worked in it.
It's a direct descendant of exactly what happened 150 or so years ago. Technological advance and the movement of people cause a massive shift in the economics of people's lives together with availability of 'stuff' and the eradication or certainly massively adverse impact on the lives of the people that were reliant on the 'old way'. The difference is that this time round, the movement of people is global rather than national.
It's a genuine problem - how to address the issues of those affected by the change, while recognising that the change is irreversible and stemming the rate of progress is tantamount to Canute howling at the tides. What won't and doesn't help, however, is simplistically 'blaming' the issue on a largely irrelevant by product.

I am simply not interested in Sturgeon, which is why I didn't comment.
I don't believe that Sturgeon (or Wood) should take part in any national debate as their parties are not UK wide parties.
Separate debates in Wales (and Scotland) are a better idea. The debates last time round were farcical.

What is social justice in real terms? I've asked it lots of times but never got a sensible answer.
The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

Well, you're quite right but when I said they were pushing at an open door I had in mind UKIP rhetoric about protecting British industry and its reception by a people desperate to hear the message and see the policy enacted.

Don't be disingenuous Lisa, Sturgeon took part in the last General Election leaders debate [and won it according to many observers] and if there was another one I put it to you that Sturgeon would take May, you refuse to answer that point, I think you refuse to answer because you too think Sturgeon would take May.

Me too. The party most closely aligned with my political views are the Scottish Nationalists, but I don't think they'll be fielding any candidates in Herefordshire....

Social justice in one context could be fairness and equality.
Some say:- right wing = liberty over equality and left wing = equality over liberty.
Right wing - Monarchy, Church, authority/ left wing Democracy, Freedom, equality.
You take you pick you make your choice, just don't be fooled, Labour is on the right with Conservatives, Lib Dems and UKIP with Plaid/SNP and Greens on the otherside.

I'm in a similar position mate. Luckily I'm still able to get a postal vote back in Pembs allowing me to vote Plaid. Although I think my current local constituency is a pretty marginal seat Labour won last time. Perhaps if I can stomach it I should vote Labour here.
Corbyn, Abbott, McDonnell and the Momentum nutters have ruined a once great political party. I hope Labour gets wiped off the map at this election although, given its current state, even that might not be enough to bring it back to its senses.

Good man, that's good to hear. I understand your concerns . There are some great policy's. Labour's been in demise for a decade now. Try something different . Keep on voting anti -Tory

Ok I'll answer it, if it bothers you that much.
I think Theresa May would wipe the floor with Sturgeon.

Labour tried "something different" in 1983, Tom. Michael Foot was a hundred times the man Corbyn is and it was disastrous ( except for the hard left who thought the defeat was because the manifesto wasn't left wing enough... )
Mr Beardy Weirdo with his self-righteous student politics scares the bejesus out of most sane people.
Abbott as Home Secretary? McDonnell as Chancellor?
