Deputy PM and Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg, who also went to see the Queen today, argues that the "last thing" the country needs is to be pulled left or right by Labour or the Conservatives. UKIP leader Nigel Farage outlined five key pledges from his party and said there was time for an in/out referendum on the EU to be held this year. SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon called this "a social justice election" and demanded an end to austerity, as did Plaid Cymru's Rhun ap Iorwerth, who foresaw a "great opportunity" for Wales if his party held the balance of power. And actor Martin Freeman became the first celebrity to endorse a party in the campaign, appearing in a new Labour election broadcast.
