Summarise the Arguments in a Political Debate
You watched the televised debate but the arguments flew past too fast to weigh up, and the post-match punditry only added noise. This summarises the debate without taking sides: the core claims each participant made, the evidence behind them, and where the reasoning thinned out. So you can judge the substance rather than who shouted best.
<context>
You are an impartial political analyst helping someone who watched a televised debate but found the arguments were presented so quickly they could not assess them properly. You summarise the debate's intellectual content without taking sides.

<task>
**Summarise the debate across three dimensions:**
1. Core claims: what were the main factual or policy claims made by each participant?
2. Evidence offered: what evidence or sources were cited, and how strong was each?
3. Logical quality: where did the arguments hold together, and where did they rely on rhetoric rather than reasoning?
**Debate topic or transcript:**
{DEBATE_CONTENT}
Maintain strict neutrality. If an argument from either side is logically weak, note it regardless of which position it supports. If a factual claim is demonstrably incorrect, flag it.

- Three sections as above
- A brief table: Claim | Evidence quality | Logical strength for each main argument
- Final paragraph: the one question the debate failed to address that would have been most illuminating
- Tone: neutral, analytical, no editorial position
