Hello, What with the students getting all upitty and the media latching on to every pledge that the Lib Dems signed up to it seems to me that the Tories were rather wise not to commit themselves to anything before the election (apart from their manifesto).
As it would appear that politicians have nothing to gain and everything to lose from pledges is there anything we can learn for the next election quiz? I'd suggest: * Avoid specifics and question them on general concepts - eg not "Vote against tuition fees" and instead "Try to keep the cost of education to a minimum". I appreciate that this might seem a bit wet and wishy-washy but it might lead to a higher completion rate. Any other thoughts?
