    Translation - you're peeved that they got to cast a vote after the expenses scandal, but you've got to wait until next May.

    What is your definition of "imagination" though - what were you hoping for - presumably to vote for whatever party you support.

    More people voted for the "other" parties combined than the winning candidate. That shows some imagination in the voters - they just couldn't galvanise around a single fringe candidate.

    Christ Almighty. Right. Let's get this over and done with.

    This is just arguing which is best, the Tossers or the Winkers. They're as bad as each other and since Blair came in, there's no difference anyway.

    Why not just go the full hog and advocate a two party system like the Merkins have? Then we can be done with democracy altogether and just argue about what f***ing colour to vote for.

    New Labour: tulipe.
    Tories: tulipe.
    Big party politics: guaranteed tulipe.

    Anyone arguing for voting Labour or Tory is a f***ing idiot or a child or has no functional f***ing memory.

    And don't bother with "But, ah, yes, being rogered by the Tories was much nicer because their fiddling was posh fiddling" because it doesn't f***ing wash.

    I am absolutely appalled the inbred, sibling-shagging, Easy Anglian carrot munchers demonstrated a complete lack of any imagination whatsoever. They've just rolled over to be rogered by the bugger on the other side of the bed. I hope the sea levels rise and it drowns the f***ing lot of them. Although their webbed fingers and 17 toes means they'll probably survive.



    And it's not even as if she's a looker, FFS.

    But its unfair to blame them for the early 1980 recession. The country was virtually bankrupt when the Tories came to power and there was no chance of avoiding it.

    For instance, next May unemployment will probably be just under 3 million. When the tories win, unemployment will rise over 3 million - and I'm sure 10 years from now, people will spin this as a way of showing that unemployment was higher under the tories, even though it was entirely Labour's fault.

    Likewise, statistics show that Labour have the "best record" on repayment of the national debt because the lowest point was just after the 1997 election

    FFS.

    This is the 21st Century. Is a woman's physical appeal (which is subjective anyway) still the only criteria on which she is going to be judged?

    At least someone can talk some sense on the subject.

    She's pretty but she needs to drop the 'dyke' hairstyle.

    The best (and only good thing) about the Conservatives is they are not New Labour.

    That's all you really need to know to vote Conservative.

    Oxymoron.

    You can have whisky swilling toffs but not whiskey swilling toffs.

    & do we really need more wimmin in politics?
    I agree 100%. Women have far more other things to worry their pretty little heads about like cooking and cleaning up for their hard working husbands. And to show my appreciation I will allow my wife to pleasure when I return from spending the evening in the pub.

    Looks like David Milliband in disguise. You know that all the mainstream politicians went to the same universites and most of them have switched allegiances at 1 time or another. Don't know why anybody cheers when Labour loses and Tories win. They have the same policies, they're the same chinless wonders.

    She has also been a member of the TimeTogether scheme which helps refugees in the UK find their feet and contribute to British life.

    What sort of Tory is she? Jeez.....
