Re: General Election confirmation...
The elections are usually always the first Thursday of May and are not usually announced until approximately 1 month beforehand. This will be the first time in a number of years I have not supervised at the vote count!

Why not just say 'I love Gaelic'. One Language is never enough, but here is a tip, don't learn Latin or Gaelic, they're dead languages. By the way whats the Gaelic for typewriter?:p JTL |

Clearly I'd pay attention if there was a civil war in the yookay, but the four yearly trade-in from one set of corrupt useless wind-bags for a different set of corrupt useless wind-bags I could not give two shits. Still, whatever floats your boat I guess. |

It's a signature - it's there all the time, typed once :rolleyes:
Actually, both languages are not dead in their own right. I need it (Latin) for floristry/horticulture, as do pharmacists :p As for Gaelic - still used mate. Gaelic for typewriter = typewriter. Smartarse :sneaky: Cyfrifiadur says I. It was funny watching his sails deflate so quickly. :lol: |

Still, whatever floats your boat I guess. I know I'm extremely grateful I'm not there thinking about who to vote for, it's bad enough here. I don't think it's a case of not caring about the UK, I love the place but I personally don't think I have a right to vote and make a decision about a place I no longer live in or am likely to for years. In that respect this election is irrelevant to me, not because I don't care but because I made a decision to move away. I know lots of people continue voting after moving away but I think that's wrong, I think we should lose the right to vote. Just my opinion though, don't expect others to agree. |

I agree actually - British citizens can still register to vote in the UK even if they haven't even been there for (up to) 15 years. Someone who pays no taxes, has no property or assets, no pension, no friends, no relatives, no passport, no other connection or interest to the UK and will be affected only marginally by the outcome can still vote in UK (general) elections. Meanwhile, there are hundreds of thousands of people in the UK who live, work, pay tax etc and don't have the right to vote. It's very unfair and I would support the right to vote being cut off from people who don't live in the UK (turkey voting for Xmas, I suppose).
