Re: General Election 2010
 

That reminds me of when I moved into my 1st house (this one) I opted for a postal vote as I had no idea where the polling station was.

Turns out it's at the school 10 feet away from my door, the post box being a few hundred feet up the road (DOH!) and yes I did post it :smt068but sorted it out for the next one.

i happen to be between the age of 18 and 25, admittely only 18 but i wil vote, so i can moan and i can atleast make an effort to make a bit of change. Ive got no F**kin idea who im voting for, i cant make sense of whos lying the most. and IMO i reckon theyre all as bad as each other (im willing to take abuse for that) but i shall look closer the time, and il make sure i choose the one i want, that ill feel could make a difference.

Has anyone seen boys from the black stuff?
I was told it was a good idea to watch that before thinking of voting tory, I get the point but I was led to believe thatcher did ok for us on the whole (well until she went insane after a few years) but how much of that was down to her and how much of it was down to the party? david cameron seems a bit of a ****....

Dave if we all voted on things that happened 20 years ago where would it get us albeit the tories would have to introduce free board at my house for immigrants for me to waiver.
Half the reason for employment problems in the 80's was strikes, everyone striked, in the long term that doesnt help at all, same as it wont for BA staff, you've just gotta pull together, a job is better than no job.

Thatcher was a conviction politician who had direction and went with it.For that I respect her,but I also believe she did more long term damage to this country than anyone else since before the War.She "fixed" the economy by decimating it and left us unable to compete with France and Germany.That is why they are now better off than us and we are floundering in the economic **** we see today.She actually kick started the policy of burning the North Sea oil and flogging off anything not nailed down in order to pretend we were rich.Other weak willed losers from both parties continued in the same vein.

Re: General Election 2010
 

Just sorted my form out to get registered to vote, yeah I tend to leave stuff late, but I'm assured this is the last week, so there we go.

I shall not be voting for out current lot, nor did I last time.

A vote for Liberal Democrats is surely a vote for a hung parliament as they obviously can't win outright themselves.

Re: General Election 2010
 

It depends who is most likely to beat the tory or labour encumbant.That may be Libdem or one of the nationalists.It could be an "other" in some constituencies.Id vote for anyone who can beat one of the main parties to prevent either of them taking a majority.

Re: General Election 2010
 

When the Tories last left Government, John Major and Ken Clarke left the public finances in excellent shape. Look at them now, after 13 years of Labour.

I will vote Conservative. I always have and I probably always will. A vote for Brown and his homies... er, no.

It dismays me when people say that they won't vote. It's one of the very few freedoms we have left.

Re: General Election 2010
 

All I can say is best of luck to you all.

America voted for change in it's last election, but "nothing in the streets
looks any different to me".
The war goes on and the economy is still in shambles.
Seems the only change we got is "parting on the left is now parting on the right"

Hope the UK "Won't get fooled again" like the US did in it's last election.
If you vote for change, I bloody well hope you get it.

Politicians. :rolleyes:
