I thought Nigel Farage did okay. He made one clear point - that the immigration and asylum debate between Labour and the Tories was a charade when the decisions on this issue are in future to be taken in Brussels. Then he repeated the same point when he was given a chance. That's pretty much all that was possible within the format of the programme. It got across the core UKIP message that you have to repatriate powers to Westminster. It wasn't a barnstorming performance but it was pretty competent and effectively undercut the arguments of the other two MEPs in the debate.
