UKIP hype

[OwlHoot]

So switch it off. Don't remember watching the news in ages, a quick glance at the bbc news website is all the news I need.

WHS - At the weekend I sometimes watch the headlines on the hour, which takes all of 30 seconds; given the chronically dumbed down state of TV these days though, anything more is a load of superfluous worthless waffle.

Too many words and not enough pictures?

When UKIP don't win a single seat it will prove how bad the current voting system is.

And who cares who you vote for - Labour or Conservatives will win and their policies are identical.

A great pity it has taken a twunt like Farage to bring Immigration onto the agenda. The only growth industries in this country are driven by credit(especially house prices) and immigration. And immigration has only benefited the rich - the vast majority of people are worse off.

Did you know you can be against immigration and not be a racist?

Or how good it is.

LibDems seem to have gone a bit quiet on the issue of PR.

Are they worried the public might think it stands for Paedo Representation ?

Vote Monster Raving Loony Party!

The Lib Dem method they had in the referendum was very flawed but I'd like a system that delivered real PR. Policies that are supported by the majority and go with gut instincts are more likely to work than the crap from the self servers and educated idealists who can afford not to live with the problems that their policies inflict on ordinary people. Our current system, with all the undue influence that those in marginal seats have, is appalling.

Also a written constitution that guaranteed certain things such as a secular principles for society and freedom of choice unless there was a soundly based reason to limit it for the common good and Swiss style referenda that could force parties to properly take account of public opinion on any issue.

But vote Monster Raving Loony Party won't annoy mos and pg.

Vote UKIP! - Get Milliband!
