I figure no matter who you put in power they will screw it up for us, but like LSP says whats the alternative. I'm no fan of this goverment, but whats the other choice??
Evilgoat:
Again, what he said. Least we know which direction Labour is going regardless of not liking it.
All three parties seem totally out of touch and I think the public in general have had enough. No one actually cares that voting levels have fallen, so long as they get voted in :(
I for one have had enough, and if I can convince Bunnie that my home country is worth a shot I'll be going back there some day.
I was born in the UK and raised here but I no longer feel that I owe this country anything. I no longer consider it my home and I no longer consider myself a citizen. I'm almost ashamed that I'm british :(

I'm looking forward to the day when technology means we can all take part.
for instance...
Every debate in parliment is available for us to read up on before hand... perhaps an independent org can be created to put the arguments succinctly for the layman.
We each have a vote... electronically (garuanteed secure and non-hijackable for the sake of this fantasy! :roll: :lol: ).
If 50% of an MP's constituency votres, then that MP is required to take the side of his constituency over his party.
Thus... it's the people who make the decisions (or fail to) and they have no one else to blame if it all goes pear shaped!

They have us just where they want us "DIVIDED". Together we are strong Alone we are weak . We still have a very good standard of living , but wheres the feel good factor togo with it , we have had the Shiiiit kicked out of us , alot of folk dont give a frying foot anymore . Unless you are part of the Benefit Culture there aint alot left Im afraid..
