Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
She answered the way that Blair, Cameron and to a degree Clegg did and I am thoroughly fucked off with it.

I'd say Corbyn won over the audience with his personality and appeared generally quite calm and assured when placed under pressure, although he still can't address his past in an adequate way for the electorate which will probably damage him. May ditched the 'strong and stable' mantra and even though I think she put in a more assured performance than against Andrew Neil, the laughs of derision in her direction should be a cause for concern... She just doesn't seem to connect with people and it's obvious why she avoided doing debates with him.
It'll be interesting to see how it is edited down from the whole show and how it is reported.
Corbyn had my vote from day one and nothing has changed that. But I still think the Conservatives will win.
One thing I do know, Paxman has become an utter parody of himself. It seemed more about him than either May or Corbyn.

looks like it's going to backfire even if they win
Cameron… holds referendum to stay in the EU - backfires by Leave winning.
Boris… leads Leave campaign - backfires by winning and having no idea what to do, gives up and lets May be the leader.
May… calls general election to strengthen power - backfires by revealing her poor leadership and decision-making after the manifesto debacle - even if she does win she will be weakened.
Strong and stable? They're clearly the party of utter chaos and incompetence.

My concern is that a lot of people won't have time for nuance.
Regardless, it's helped clarify my views. I like the manifesto and I believe Corbyn would be up to the job, so unless something terrible happens in the next week or so I'll be voting Labour. I think he's got a more realistic and achievable strategy for brexit, and I prefer his vision for the post-EU UK. It's also the right move from a tactical point of view for me, given that the Tory candidate was only 6,000 behind the Labour guy two years ago in my constituency. It's funny, I went into the election thinking I'd vote Lib Dem, but Farron is the living embodiment of the Chicken Lawyer from Futurama.
Now if only Abbott could stay quiet and resign shortly after the election, the last of my qualms would be resolved!

Ignore the fact that all the parties have stuff about them I dislike. My area is basically Conservative or Labour. If I choose any of the others, it's effectively a wasted vote. My stupid hippy brain is saying Lib Dem or Greens. Having looked into my local candidates, they're all a bit shit. The Lib Dem guy is at least some sort of scientist and teacher though.
The Conservative guy is a bit of a knob.
Even if they do win you have to vote - at the very least you will know you tried and just maybe enough people thinking the same also vote it could change. I suspect most constituencies have more people not voting than the difference between winning and second.
