Default Should there be a General Election?

Its in the news saying that oh there should be a gerneral election, will there be one? who would win......

I think Gordon Brown should kicked out, one example which effects us.....fuel duty increase he is saying now that what happened in the last 10 years before he became prime minster is nothign do with casue he wasn't in charge.... the fuel increase is going to make a lot of things more expensive or small companies going bust and its his fault no one else.....oh he currently to stop a pay rise that across publice services.....

how is that fair when other in the private sector are allowed to have as much as they want. Why shouldn't they be capped to prevent inflation its way of keeping us down, one rule for rich and a different one for everyone else.

well he was the one that put in place no one else and its hs fault, he should taking the blame for what is going wrong becasue he could have stopped it happening......

The number of replies to your post should give some idea how interested people are in another election. The guys just got the job, he should have a stab at it first.

I think he's making a mess of it just now, anyway. Cameron's like a pig in poo, he can't lose- if he calls for an election and Brown doesn't call one, then he's running scared. If he does, then he's dancing to Cameron's tune. They've totally lost the initiative. That, and it brings back unhelpful memories of Blair putting off the announcement of his leaving for so long, which got really old and just made him look unreliable and untrustworthy. Which he was, but still, you should at least make an effort

To be honest given some of the recent hreads and the amount of people (including me) caling for things to change, for people not to be bothered with a election is a bit hypocritical i think, if you dont vote you have no right to whinge about things.

I alway vote and will continue to do so, this govenment needs to change ASAP!!

I think there should be without a doubt...... I REALLY dont like Gordon Brown, there is just something about him that makes me feel extremely uneasy.

I know the grass isnt always greener but on this ocassion I believe it could be.

I believe david cameron and the conservatives would probably benefit me and my way of life better than gordon brown with labour currently does.

Its all in hindsight as what they say and what they do differ considerably.

I want another election because I was refused a vote in the last one.

Conspiracy theory!

I have always had a postal vote because of my job, I think it is open to abuse as the documents have barcodes and numbers identifying me or at least my address.

It wouldnt take much for some corrupt politician or councillor to work out how I vote.

At the last election my right for the postal vote was cancelled about 3 weeks before the election with no explanation.

I might be paranoid but maybe Tony Bliar had something to do with that

Well I dislike all of them but I despise Cameron.Even more of an opportunist than Blair was with his see which way the winds blowing policy initiatives.I also wonder how a multi millionaire who went to Eton from his sort of background could possibly be seen as fit to run the country by most people.
The old deference vote perhaps?
Ill just snivvle off and touch my forelock
