Here are three speeches, as analysed by Wordle, a website which creates a picture giving greater prominence to more frequently used words in a piece of text.
Gordon Brown speech (10 February):
David Cameron speech (27 March):
Nick Clegg speech (14 March):
Favourite words were:
Gordon Brown: future, Britain, change, Labour, every
David Cameron: want, people, Government, going, country
Nick Clegg: Liberal, Democrats, change, people, tax
When you put all three speeches together, this is what you get:
