History Repeats
History has a nasty habit of repeating it's self and it could do so very easily again.

Because the government WILL NOT LISTEN!bloggoth

I'm not in the least bit surprised, I want to vote for a party that will tackle immigration as I really don't want another 10m in this country.
Who should I vote for?? I probably won't bother at all... I'll then be told by some loony lefty that I shouldn't complain as I didn't vote.

I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

AyeOriginally posted by xoggoth View PostBecause the government WILL NOT LISTEN!
So many of us were saying it would all end in tears all those years ago, but nobody would listen to us either.
At the time I was saying "Things can only get better" was the modern day equivalent of "The future belongs to me".How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

'Teach them a lesson' - God Help Us All
What worries the tulip out of me are people like my mother in law, 75+, who thinks the other political parties need to be taught a lesson. 'Only for a short while you understand and then get that nice Mr Brown/Cameron back'. So she will be voting BNP next time. I don't think she is alone so we will stumble into a nightmare.
