Poll: Britain: Which is your political preference?

[Archaon6044]

LibDem, because i've had enough of labour, D. Cameron is c**t, and i'm not a nazi, so the only logical choice is LebDem

 

[timmytom1]

In terms of ideaology i kinda lean towards the traditional tory idea of minimal state intervention but cameron just seems to be more intrested in socring politial cool points than connecting with the voters ,so i`ll go lib-dem who actually provide some decent ideas

 

[timmytom1]

Why the hell are some people scared of socialism? (which if you look up socialism would be brilliant were it not for the fact that it`s impossible) it`s stalinism ,and the extreme right wing parties we should be scared shitless about ..Is it the `50s again or something?

 

[razer17]

Labour are an awfull party. They have roots in socialism for fuck sake. New labour is almost dead so a return to socialism is forseeable. They have massively increased public debt, tuition fees. Thats right, because of them we leave uni with massive debt, i believe 30,000 is average.
Gordon Brown is going to be the 2nd pm to take us over 3 million unemployed. We all remember what happened to the last one dont we, yes we do maggie

i do believe that before labour we had no student finance, so unless you could pay of the debts before hand you couldn't get in. so without labour only the rich would go to uni. also the student loans are the cheapest loans (interest rate wise) you will ever get in your life, and you only have to pay them back as a small percentage of what you earn, around an hours wage a week it works out as, plus you can pay it off quicker if you wish.
point dismissed. next please

Before labour, you did not have to ay and the government gave you grants. People froma any background could go as long as they had the grades. Now, at £3,00 a year, i can barely afford the tuition fees let alone living expenses. And student loans may be cheap, but not as cheap as not having to take them out at all.
Next please

May all who chose the BNP please stand forward? Really, i'd like to see what motivates them towards such a racist party.

 

[KaiRai]

I want the IP of whoever voted BNP.

I say labour. I'd prefer lib dems but they don't have a realistic chance of getting in. Anything to stop the conservatives.

Seconded.
Fuck the BNP, they're a bunch of knuckle dragging racists, they don't deserve political power in any way shape or form.

I think UKIP should get in and I know a hell of a lot of people voting for them. They want us out the EU. They are clearly geniuses in every way, shape and form.

 

[ThatJagoGuy]

Why no Green Party option?? They make the most damned sense of any party.

 

[sneak_copter]

Add an option for NONE because all political parties are brainwashing pricks. And you should remove the BNP option.

Why? it's got ONE vote.

Yes, but that one voter doesn't deserve his freedom of speech. That, or he clicked it by mistake.

Anyway, can you add an SNP(Scottish National Party) option?

Nobody dosen't deserve free speech. It's just this one particular racist bastard has seen fit to abuse it. The BNP is a facist, evil, cold-hearted organisation.

Anyway, I'm going to have to stick to Labour. They're not perfect, sure. They're bloody flawed. But where the hell did the tories get us last time? Hmm? Got reason to believe that won't happen again? I say bullshit. A political idea does not change in 20 years, and I doubt many of the smaller parties have any idea what thier doing.

Anyway, I'm just gonna wrap up by saying: Britain's goverment sucks. I'd say we're on track for a revolution. Very soon, too. Friction is building.

 

[JanatUrlich]

How does it function badly? Not disagreeing with you, as I too think politics is rather interesting.

Also, in answer to the current question, I intend to vote Green Party.

It's just that nothing functions as it's meant to! First Past the Post is a totally unfair system, there's no Separation of Powers, Parliament's Sovreignty is being completely threatened due to executive dominance (all thanks that Blair and Thatcher) and nothing seems to be quite as nice as it seems XDD I dunno, maybe the new Supreme Court Judiciary will help a bit, but I kinda doubt it D=

It is quite amazing that Labour did things that would have been unthinkable in the Thatcher era. Can you imagine the shitstorm if Thatcher had tried to introduce tuition fees or privatise the utilities and public transport? It's like they turned out more Tory than the Tories in many ways.

 

[Fulax]

Libertarian Party UK. Woo!

Many of the policies of new laboyr were just follow ons from conservative policy. Barely an origional thought between the bunch.

And whilst i agree with what people are saying about the BNP, its just a shame this is what has become of them. It started out as a legitimate attempt to protect british heratige and culture and is now in the hands of racists and general scum.

 

[bodyklok]

None of the party's hold my particular views, so I refuse to vote for any of them.

 

[Plinglebob]

I'm voting for the Lib Dems because they seem to be the only ones at the moment actually trying. Labour piss me off due to the abolishment of grammer schools (or at least attempted abolishment, cant remember if they succeeded) and help foster the idea that everyone can be intelligent and go to university. Hate to break it to you but 50% of people will be at or below average intelligence.

I would vote for the monster raving loonies but they dont have a representative here. With a menifesto like this (http://www.omrlp.com/index.php?page=manifestoproposals-1) who wouldn't want them in?

Edit: Related tale. I live near Bournemouth which means we normally get one of the big political conferences and a couple of years ago at work we were discussing about the increased traffic because of it an a girl started compaining about the government. The conversation went as follows:
Me: Did you vote for anyone in the last election?
Her: Of course not, politics is rubbish.
Me: So you didn't have a say in trying to keep them out or getting them in so you have no right to complain so just shut up.
My manager liked me a lot after that.

 

[eadipus]

green party, they're likely to win a seat in london

otherwise Lib Dems because they're the only non right wing major party


the only thing I have to really say is that if you have the opportunity to vote tomorrow, DO IT
I don't care if you don't like any of the parties, go and vote for anyone but the BNP, its proportional representation so they've actually got a chance of getting someone elected

 

[BlackJack47]

hooray for green party apparently...to be honest anything but conservative or BNP will be fine for me.

 

[eadipus]

they're also the only party who've actually spoken to me, they grabbed me in front of the station on the way home and gave me a flyer.

I guess the big three are lying low at the moment though

 

[lorrdmatt]

I love the way you're all so quick to jump one the one person who votes for the BNP. You are infact just as bad the BNP themselves, you're persecuting someone for their beliefs. Intolarence for the BNP supporters is still intolarence.
