Some updates from Worlds Rounds 1-3

I will post updates from Worlds as I come across them.  One thing to note is this year thanks to twitter there is a flood of information which is great for debate hacks like myself sitting on the other side of the world.  I have added a twitter feed to the right hand side of this blog so you can follow events live.

IDEA are streaming live debates from the tournament.  You can view the debates at http://www.idebate.org/streaming/wudc/

Motions so far
Round 1: This house would make fathers take paternity leave
Round 2: This house would prevent politicians from making fact claims,that, while not technically lies, are substantially misleading voters.
Round 3:  This house would force large companies who leave an area to cover the costs of structural unemployment.
Adjudication Test: This house would ban all reporting of individual hostage taking.
