The Tories still haven't managed to produce a coherent policy platform. All they've got at the moment is "We're not Labour."

Very different story in Australia, where the Liberal/Labor gap is narrowing. Rudd is openly concerned about the results of the next election and rightly so.

If everyone had to vote in the UK and everyone had to vote in USA like here might be a different outcome.

Labour here always has more votes but with our preferential system we get surprises.

I certainly don't think the UK election is a done deal. The Tories have spent so long pretending to be Socialists without being Socialists that their natural constituency is fragmented.

No-one wants Brown and his disastrous agenda to carry on but a lot of people are thinking that Cameron is basically trying to be Brown Lite to get elected, so why not register a protest and vote for UKIP or the Raving Monsters.

It's all going to be very interesting (in the Chinese sense).

I reckon there will still be plenty coming but they will be more like refugees rather than the cashed up Brits of the last 10 years or so.

William Hague "talked straight" back in 2001 and the county was so infatuated with Blair that it didn't listen.

Talk straight? . . . Abbott he can barely walk straight . . .

. . . anyways I hope Gordon does get back in. He hasn't had long enough in the job, he needs at least another term to attain his aim of pound-dollar parity . . . then we can all **** off back home.

Keep up the good work Agent Brown . . .

I cannot believe that people would really want to see Crash Gordon back in power for another 4 or 5 yrs.

I'm not saying that I expect anything much better from the Tories but the UK definitely needs a change and some fresh blood.

Brown has been basically in charge of the books for 13 years now and I honestly don't think the country has been better off for it. The outlook for the future is looking pretty dire - especially for the next generation.

It doesn't really matter to me and my family as we will be moving to OZ in June on a 175 but if the voters put Brown back in charge I guess the old saying "you get the govt you deserve" really iis true!
