RULES OF THE GAME

Tonight three men will broadly agree on their political outlook, but they will bicker over this broad agreement like drunks in the pub who are quite sure that THEY, personally, have it right and the others are talking bollocks.

Thus three men have gathered in my flat to watch the Leaders Debate in an according manner, with a drinking game.

Each man will draw out a name, each leader's name has been written on a sheet of folded bog roll. For each leader there is a corresponding drink.

Gordon Brown - Newcastle Brown Ale

Nick Clegg - Cider

David Cameron - Lambrini

Additionally they have on hand a bottle of Brandy.

The rules of the game are subject to change. We're not sure what this change is, but we'll tweet you and update this blog as we go along.

Two fingers of the chosen drink for the following;

- when one leader call another by their first name.

- evokes a 'Global Crisis'

- uses an obscure place name, or name-checks a developing country.

- begins a contribution, 'when I was in...'

more rules to follow as the slosh gets flowing.

*

If any leader says 'I agree with [one of the other leaders]', both the speaking leader and the leader he names will take a swig of Gentlemen's Agreement Brandy.

SPECIAL

* A swig on the Brandy for any leader who attempts to correctly pronounce the name of the volcano.
