Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

N.C. Appears something of a wet-pants, but that could be good.

I'm not sure I should have the vote though. I instinctively distrust people in suits.

Perhaps you should be directing you anger at your union for spending your contributions on party politics.
In contrast the Torries came from the landowners and money in society. The torries can trace thier roots back to a time when only men with money COULD vote.
Oh I'm perfectly aware that the union are supporters, and yes you are right about who I should be annoyed at for sending me letters. But, they are still hand in hand, and in my eyes even these people are as bad as each other. Union shouldn't be spending their contributions on party politics, nor should they be open supporters of a party. I don't like subliminal voting tactics, and in my eyes this is what it is.

Same here - always have voted for them - not because I know much about politics but just have always wanted to see someone else get a look in because I'm so sick of the other two not doing what they pledge to do.

As for their personalities - it shouldn't be about that, or their wives/pasts/haircuts/car choice - it should be about what they can do to run OUR country efficiently and improve OUR lives, without slagging each other off like Boxers before a fight!
