Better the leaflet than the candidate.Originally posted by SueEllen View PostI voted as well.
But then again we have local elections as well to see which corrupt/paedo/bigoted councillors will get in.
I did notice the BNP leaflet that came through my door came very early in the morning......

Well I voted. Gawd knows why.
If you vote you help validate the whole ridiculous charade.
If you don't vote then the EU wins anyway. But who can blame anyone for not bothering?
Euro-elections: an exercise in futility.......In reality, splitting up 9.7 percent of the vote between a group of dysfunctional political parties, to let them play in an institution that hasn't any real power anyway, is something for which it isn't even worth getting out of bed..

I like the EU. The people in charge of it, whoever they are, are like a Big Brother to me.

Your remake of Breaking Bad ends after one episode because there is no point in turning to a life of violence and crime when the state provides your healthcare free at the point of delivery.Your remake of Breaking Bad would have got to about series 3 before Walter succumbed.
