I'm not going to vote.
Tories (and bed-wetter Osbourne) are a shoe-in round here. Labour usually send some 'work-experience' candidate and then, because it's a fairly infamous constituency, we get more than our fair share of racists, delusionists and attention seekers.

Not voting is the same as not having a choice IMV. You may as well move to North Korea or somewhere.Originally posted by Alf W View PostI'm not going to vote.

This is an interesting debate I had with a (Cuban) bloke in Cuba - what's the difference between totalitarian lack of choice and the lack of choice that comes from the only two parties with a chance of winning being so tulipe you can't bring yourself to vote for either of them?Originally posted by pzz76077 View PostNot voting is the same as not having a choice IMV.

New lie aren't labour!
The tories may not be much of a choice but Blairs Buffoons aren't a choice.
I always understood labour were devoted to the working man's interest, new lie displaced native workers, allowed expenses to raise but not pensions, they should understand equality but are obsessed with selecting people based on race & sex.
If the tories offer a better option then I'll take it. Helps that I worked hard and I'm better off, maybe I should just get pregnant or become a drug addict.Comment

I suppose its all irrelevant - many countries have all sorts of tin pot dictators, quadzillion per cent inflation and zero human rights, yet the population still have great food, wild parties and even wilder sex, so I am wondering what the UK parties have to offer that that could top this??Originally posted by Peoplesoft bloke View PostThis is an interesting debate I had with a (Cuban) bloke in Cuba - what's the difference between totalitarian lack of choice and the lack of choice that comes from the only two parties with a chance of winning being so tulipe you can't bring yourself to vote for either of them?

I know that neither party can afford to be too fussy these days, but even they have to accept that having both a heart and a brain are basic prerequisites for entitlement to vote.Originally posted by Muttley08 View PostDidn't someone once say if you vote Tory when you're young you haven't got a heart, but if you vote Labour when you're older, you haven't got a brain....or words to that effect....Comment
