What do you think to this Government?

He wasnt around at the best sort of time to be complaining about leadership though...

This government isn't brilliant, I admit.

But can anyone tell me which party would be better if they were in power? With justifications for that opinion?

Any... Because Brown and his chums wouldn't be there with their stupid idea's. We need an anti spy party!

I can't tell you which would be better, but I'm happy to tell you which have policies which currently fit best with my own politics - that's not to say I agree with all of them, but the only party I agree with entirely is my own little private party to which no-one else but me belongs

My politics I always used to describe as right of old labour, left of new labour. So my natural home right now is the yellow lot. The blues are making a lot of the right noises but to be perfectly honest I don't trust them an inch, they spent the 80s demonising my perfectly good single mother because that was the bandwagon du-jour; I just have very little confidence that they're not just saying whatever focus groups reckon will get them into power before reverting to type.

Victory for the yellows at the next election is, lets face it, unlikely, so best I'm hoping for is either a hung parliament or a razor thin majority with the yellows taking most of the vacant red seats.

No I dont like this government and I agree with the comments about surveillance and too much meddling in our lives.Trouble is I have no confidence in any of the political class to do any better.We seem to have perfected a political system that rewards and promotes mediocrity and stifles talent and originality.A perfect reflection of our wider society perhaps?

I vote for anarchy rather than Nulabour or that daft **** DC.

At least the Lib Dems are beginning to speak sense. If only they'd drop the EU crap too.

SNP, would finally get rid of you southerners!

Only joking

Give it a few years and I can see the UK breaking up into several parts,Scotland being the first to detatch.Could see a rerun of what happened to Yugoslavia when the money ran out there.

What I do love is how you guys boil down an entire government's policies and popularity to whatever their policy is regarding speeding!

Yeah.. I was not being clear. I mean that there'll never be a large majority who are happy.. IE there's always going to be a (large) minority of people who aren't happy.

That's inevitable so long as we continue to use "First past the post."
