    David McCullagh chairs the penultimate debate, and the last one to feature the incumbent President.

    Billed to start at 9.45, so it doesn't clash with the Champions League.

    No audience from what I've heard.

    Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue

    When MDH is accused of wasting Taxpayers money, he should reply "well, I'm going to save the taxpayers lots of money because I'll get so many votes no-one else will be able to reclaim expenses"

    Evening all.

    And we open with the MDH security slip up...

    Poorly answered IMO. Now it's his staff to blame and because of a busy day. Will he apologise to the PSNI?

    The PSNI were never mentioned by him, just said it was advice regarding security provided to him, so that's his out.
