Clegg is a pretty awesome guy

The article is about the Leader’s Debate from last Friday. It shows that 61% of the viewers find that Nick Clegg (Democrats), won the debate, whereas 22% and 17% found that David Cameron (Conservative) and Gordon Brown (Labour) respectively won the debate. Brown focussed on asking questions, while Cameron mostly came up with stories about people whon he meet while canpaigning through the country. Clegg presented himself as an alternative to the two parties and was playing the role of outsider. He said: “The more they attack each other, the more they sound the same.” In the end it turned out that the good and excellent people of the UK want a fresh breeze, evidenced by 61% voting that Clegg won the night.

I’m not sure who I’d vote for if I were a citizen of the UK. It would probably vote for Nick Clegg, because, from the video I have seen, he looks to me like he’s the one who is preaching change. Fact: I like change. Whom I didn’t like, was Gordon Brown. I found that all he did was ask questions to David Cameron and didn’t come up with solutions. Speaking of him, he was royally screwed, standing in the center. He had people talking to him from both sides, so he found himself turning heads (and mostly at Brown’s side) a lot. In the end, I hope that Clegg wins. It will be interesting to see where the UK would go from there.

1 opmerking:

  1. I like the fact that you use quotes because I think it really supports the summary. Another thing which I like is the fact that you write in a very clear way, which is easy to understand. I would not use that much contractions if I were though, since it is still formel speech.
