Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua hoatu e Downing Street he 'tohu whakamutunga' mo nga tautohetohe TV pōtitanga e tonoa ana, e whai wāhi ana nga kaiārahi rōpū e whitu, tae atu ki a David Cameron. Kua hoatu he "kōwhiringa whakamutunga" ki ngā kaiwhakapāho kia whai wāhi atu a David Cameron ki tētahi matapaki pōti pouaka whakaata e whitu. Kua whakapae a Downing Street i te BBC me ētahi atu whatunga ki te whakaputa i te "raru" mā te whakamātau ki te whakatakoto i ngā tikanga o ngā tautohetohe me te whakarerekē i a rātou tono. I kii te hunga whakawhitiwhiti korero i wareware ki te mana roa a Mr Cameron e kii ana ko nga pakanga i whakaatahia i waenga i nga kaiarahi he tino rangatira i roto i te pakanga pooti 2010 me tiimata wawe. E whakaaro ana te Nama Tekau he tautohetohe e whai wāhi ana a Mr Cameron, Ed Miliband, Nick Clegg, Nigel Farage, te kaiārahi Green Natalie Bennett, te kaiārahi SNP Nicola Sturgeon me Plaid Cymru's Leanne Wood i te mutunga o tēnei marama. "Koinei to maatau tuku whakamutunga, me te maarama, na te mea he tino koretake tenei mahi, ana kei roto matou i te marama o te pakanga poto, kaore te Pirimia Pirimia e uru atu ki te tautohetohe kotahi", ka tuhia e te kaiwhakahaere korero a te Pirimia a Craig Oliver ki te BBC. Ko te mea pea kaore e whakaaetia e ētahi atu rōpū, e ngā kaiwhakapāho rānei e hiahia ana ia ki te whakahaere i tētahi tautohetohe, e whakaoho ana i ngā feaa mēnā ka tū tētahi i tēnei wā. Kua whakapae a Mr Miliband ki a Mr Cameron mo te whakatikatika i nga whiriwhiringa i runga i nga tautohetohe me te "haere atu i te wehi". I kī ia i te pō whakamutunga ka "mahi ia i ngā wā katoa, i ngā wāhi katoa, i ngā wāhi katoa", me te tāpiri: "Kia tapaina e Rawiri Cameron te rā". E whakaaro ana a Labour kia whakatakotohia he pakanga kanohi-ki-kanohi i waenga i a Mr Miliband me te Pirimia ka haere tonu me te kaiarahi o nga kaimahi anake, ka waiho ia e korerorero ana ki te hunga whakarongo. Heoi anō, e whakaae ana ngā pūtake ki ngā kaiwhakaputa matua ka uaua te haere ki te kore a Mr Cameron e whakaae ki te whai wāhi. Panuku ki raro mō te ataata. Ko te pōtitanga o te tau 2010 te tuatahi ki te whakaatu i ngā tautohetohe pouaka whakaata o Amerika i waenganui i ngā rangatira tōrangapū. I taua pakanga, e toru nga tautohetohe i waenga i nga kaiarahi matua e toru o nga roopu i roto i nga wiki e toru. He kāhua X Factor...
I kii a Downing Street i raru nga kaiwhakawhanake i nga kaupapa tautohetohe. I kīia he'nui rawa te kore e pai' a i kīia kia tīmata wawe ake rātou. I kii a Ultimatum me uru te tautohetohe kotahi ki nga Greens, SNP me Plaid Cymru. Ka tautohetohe rātou i te taha o Ed Miliband, Nick Clegg me Nigel Farage. Kaore pea ētahi atu rōpū e whakaae, e whakaara ake ana i ngā feaa mēnā ka puta.
