Guest as Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Own up - who else is bored senseless with it already? Not exactly a decent choice is there...........my great-grandad died for my right to vote but I'm not going to. The list of candidates is like a who's who in the most slimy untrustworthy bastards around [-X Tony Blair - not doubting he's a good leader, but I feel for all the lads still in Iraq getting attacked after our 'victory'. His showing on Paxman was a bit embarrassing as well, especially when questioned on immigration Michael Howard - he just looks ragging evil, he's like one of those posh kids at school who nobody liked or paid any attention to. Plus I was warned from a very young age that you can't trust Torys. Charles Kennedy - looks like he's got a bottle of Scotch in his bloodstream, the Lib Dems are so meaningless that even their offer of killing my future student debt hasn't swayed my vote. Nick Griffin - I agree that we've got a problem with 'others' coming into the country & abusing the system (it's bad enough we've got our own scallys doing it), but I just couldn't vote the bloke. I'm not racist enough Shame that fella from the Monster Raving Looneys died............... PB O:) Midnight at the Oasis
Traf Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 It's totally irrelevant what our opinions are. The only people that count in this election are the pensioners. They make up the largest percentage of the country's electorate and will decide the fate of the nation. Ask any elderly relative ( or Biffo / EG, if you have none!) and they'll tell you they've never been as well off as they are under Blair and Brown. They may not like Labour's policies on war, taxation, immigration, education etc etc, but if they've more money to squander on travel rugs and Werther's then that's how they'll vote.
Guest Dutch_Bird Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 When you have absolutely nothing else better to do.... LONDON (Reuters) - Would you like to kiss British Prime Minister Tony Blair? How about kissing him 100,000 times? A performance artist aims to do just that when he attempts to kiss a photograph of Blair for eight hours in a marathon display of affection for the British leader, who is seeking re-election on May 5. Mark McGowan, whose previous stunts include sitting in a bath of baked beans for two weeks with sausages strapped to his head and nailing his feet to a gallery wall, said he felt Blair was the best candidate in the upcoming election. "I'm just going to give the picture of Blair quick kisses, they won't be long smooches," said McGowan, who will perform his amorous stunt outside the prime minister's residence at 10 Downing Street on election day. "He's been really feeling the heat from the opposition recently an I wanted to show him some affection. I've been practicing on my hand and using a stopwatch and figure I can kiss the picture about 200 times a minute," he added. McGowan famously protested against Blair in 2003 when he pushed a nut across London pavements with his nose to draw attention to student debt, but said the prime minister would get his vote next Thursday. Polls show Blair and his ruling Labour party on course to win a third term in power.
Carlos Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Just a point, you don't vote for the party, you vote for your local candidate. My local Labour candidate, David Crausby, is a wonderful MP and will be getting my vote this time.
jules_darby Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 http://www.whoshouldyouvotefor.com/ I ended up with Green, which I was very surprised at to say the least..
Traf Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 You should vote: Liberal Democrat The LibDems take a strong stand against tax cuts and a strong one in favour of public services: they would make long-term residential care for the elderly free across the UK, and scrap university tuition fees. They are in favour of a ban on smoking in public places, but would relax laws on cannabis. They propose to change vehicle taxation to be based on usage rather than ownership.
Guest ian Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 as a long term staunch supporter of the labour party i find it incredible that despite what a total pussy blair is there is no realistic opposition. it is time for a change but micheal howard, more chance of getting a nazi for pope.
Guest as Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 There's a bit on the Lib Dems which really makes me want to vote for them............have you guessed what it is yet? =P~ PB O:) BTW Ruth Kelly is a man

Exiled Girl Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Labour 3 Conservative -5 Liberal Democrat 63 UK Independence Party -7 Green 63 Well that doesn't help as I seem to be equally split between Lib Dem & Green. I shall vot go for the Monster Raving Loony as they have good policies for single people.

george Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 The level of censorship in adult enterainment is the key to my vote. Under the Tories no penetration or genitalia shots were allowed causing porn fans to have to resort to back street shops in England or weekends away in Europe to watch some adult films Labour to their credit have relaxed laws to the extent where genitalia shots are allowed on terrestrial tv and full penetration close ups are allowed in "world cinema" films at places like the Cornerhouse. The Liberal Democrats by name should have enlightened views but there is no reference to this issue in their manifesto so i could not vote for them. The BNP have broadminded views regarding porn but as a fan of both Asian babe and Black on White action their caucasian only policies do not meet with my approval. Voting Labour.

Guest The Special One Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 I received my local election form today and want to know why there is no BNP candidate in Bolton. I know somebody once tried to become an mp for the BNP in Bolton and was refused point blank. Wheres the democracy?
robbwfc Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 I got the Greens as well - it's a fix. Tony Blair - biggest traitor in our country's history - if I got given 24 hours to live, the first thing I'd do is go to France, buy a gun and do everyone a favour and shoot him.
mickbrown Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Jay C - he's having you on - anybody can put themselves up for election - even racist dickheads.
Maggie Tate Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 It's dogshit. I answered yes to whether we should have gone to war in Iraq and then it said I should vote Green. How does that work? I'm voting Conservative should an electoral card ever come through the door as I don't like the fact that Labour are trying to bum everyone of my age by a variety of methods. This 50% to university thing is absolutely ludicrous. That said Myra Hindley would get in if she wore a red rose round here.

Casino Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 it says i should vote labour, but thats probably cos i wasn't given the option to 'strongly disagree' with hikes in indirect taxes within a couple of months of the bastards getting elected
