April fools or not, it's not even funny. I am terrified that Labour will win. If they do I'm never returning to the UK. Ever.

Stupid, stupid, stupid! English public.

The best result would be a hung parliament.

HANG THE LOT OF THEM!

Don't ever fear your countrymen having a little more money in their pockets. Whatever extra workers get they spend in country and it just goes round and round.

Stupid, stupid, stupid fear!

Yes - not much better, admittedly (because they will still refuse to confront the EU question), but please don't defend the last 13 years - even the staunchest Labour supporters I know are ashamed.

Hung parliament? I doubt it.............

What you mean is - you wrote some meaningless garbage, and now that you've finally realised it, you're not sure where to go from here.

Fearing people with money in their pockets? Yes - I'm terrified.............

Let me ask you a few questions, dude.

1. How is the UK better off now than it was 13 years ago?

2. Name Labour's top three accomplishments...

Go!

Perhaps more to the point if it's going to be 'better', as all parties promise, in the UK after whichever party wins the next election will many expats return?

A straw poll amongst friends here in Dubai today at lunch gave a resounding "NO" answer. They're lucky enough still to have jobs but, if they were laid off, would look to find jobs and move anywhere else but back to the UK.

How very sad ...
