Hmmm. I thought the format was decent actually, as it saved it from being another edition of Question Time. There was just enough audience participation for my money – especially considering they were all blue voters (that isn’t a dig by the way – all I mean is that more from the audience would have made it feel, to me, a lot more like a party event). I liked the more informed and analytical questioning from Mason and Islam.

I think Sophie did okay, considering how dogged Sunak was in interrupting and talking over others.

My biggest issue, really, is that I was supposed to pack for a work trip tonight and sucked into another leaders’ debate - they’re lethal in that regard!
