It's due to the UK's 'First past the post' election system, In the last several Parliaments the party with the highest overall support has NOT provided the government, and the LibDems have had just a few seats despite getting quite a large share of the vote. Spain has PR, which in the UK would almost certainly lead to a hung Parliament most times. This election will, according to all thee polls, result in a hung Parliament, and it may even be that the Scottish Nationalists could have a big say in what happens.

Now who on earth would think to put such a message on a thread about the British election, saying that age and colour don't matter when it comes to love!? Apparently she is interested in all of us! The mind boggles!

I support a left of centre party because I regard Labour as Liars who at least have done something for those worse off. For example the minimum wage.

The Tories I regard a Liars who support the better off, and that frankly isn't most of us.

Liberals I see as innefectual Liars who if they ever get in will become as corrupt as any other party.

So, if you refuse to support liars, who the hell will you vote for?

Yeah and under the Tories of course the poor will do so much better, won't they?

A friend of mine hated Ken Livingstone, regarded the congestion charge as the work of the devil etc etc. He wanted Bo Jo to get in, it would be so much better and so on. I laughed out loud at the thought that a tory, - or for that matter any politico would abolish such a cash cow, but he wouldn't listen.

He has gone very quiet now.

As with him, so it will be with you die hard tory supporters. You think they will do you good? As if.

The first ones who throw their so called working man principles out of the window are the Labour Party and Union leaders once they get their greedy snouts in the trough.
I have watched them at first hand living like Lords,chucking Union funds around like confetti,indulging in every luxurious whim and fancy that comes their way regardless of expense and the fact its the poor so-called working man who is footing the bill.
They may all be liars and hypocrites,but these guys are by far the biggest hypocrites of all.
Yet because of tradition and this working man fallacy,the Labour Party could probably put a Donkey up as M.P. in my native North East and it would still get voted in.


Now that's a good post.

There are possibly exceptions, but if you regard all politicians as self serving, greedy dishonest scumbags, you won't go far wrong.

Anyone who is stupid enough to think that their party is the party of truth, decency and honour is IMO completely delusional.

I worked for the NHS, and as such, even had I been a tory supporter, I wouldn't be now after how Maggie destroyed the NHS, She brought in the idea of competition between hospitals and created an NHS with a plethora of managers effectively stultifying the whole system, now, instead of just wanting to introduce something it has to go through so many committees, and if it requires expensive equipment a long drawn out process to decide which is best and who offers the best deals that it takes about 2 years from the start of the process to actually ordering the item, by which time it's out of date..

Yes Mike I think this is the trouble throughout the public sector. More time and staff are employed monitoring all the services than are actually providing them. Thatcher may have started it but Labour has had a long time to change it, instead they have expanded it.

BIL have you heard about the Socialist alliance, they sound a bit between old Labour and the green party

Ah, a set of green liars?

The problem is that politics is a profession that is inherently corrupting.

There are a number of professions which give you power over people, police, prison guards, priests and politicians, (all beginning with 'P', oddly) and unless the person concerned is of sterling material, all those jobs can turn one into an abuser.

Every single one of those professions beginning with P, are soured by corruption. It’s human nature. It’s the scale that disturbs us.

The MPs flipping their houses, the shirt-lifting priests, the prison guards selling drugs to inmates and the police copping money from speeding motorists, it will always happen; when we came out of the caves with our clubs we stiffed the opposition with the nicest ‘wives’ to f*** them. Nothing has changed.
