Read this quote. They are all as bad as each other!

Ignorance Is Strength

‘Throughout recorded time, and probably since the end of the neolithic age, there have been three kinds of people in the world, the high, the middle and the low. They have been sub-divided in many ways, they have borne countless different names, and their relative numbers, as well as their attitude to one another, have varied from age to age: but the essential structure of society has never altered. Even after enormous upheavels and seemingly irrevocable changes, the same pattern has always re-asserted itself, just as a gyroscope will always return to equilibrium, however far it is pushed one way or another. The aims of these three groups are entirely irreconcilable.’

George Orwell ‘1984’

I totally concur with the right honourable gentleman in the second box.

Mmm, I always have the feeling politics haven’t affected my life that much. But hell would I vote for conservative pigs.
I mean, as with most countries the borders seem to fade and all parties are getting more to the middle, trying to reach as many people as posible. So there’s probably not much difference between tories and blair’s party. I don’t know what other posibilities there are, but I’d rather do not vote than to vote for the worst one.
Mainly because I’m an Idealist and not a Realist.
Same as with the american situation.
Both Gore and Bush stink, but now democrates say that people that voted for Nader are to blame for the losing of Gore.
Stupid. Vote for something that reaches closer to YOUR ideas, otherwise don’t vote. Damn!

italian elections was just won by berlusconi and i’m really happy because finally we

they’re all as bad as each other, but blair is better than hague because blair doesn’t look and sound like a pubisant child who has suddenly lost all of his hair

Dude, I am funny.

Standard policy: Lower taxes, higher wages, blablabla. It’s all a bit cliche, don’t you think?

barbie: i like the quote at the bottom, one of my favourite albums a coupla years ago

instead of saying only who you like and don’t like for one/two word reasons, why don’t yoou go into depth about why you do or don’t support them? if you come up with good enough resons you may be able to change other people’s attitudes towards certain policies/candidates/political parties; i for one would rather read something informative and maybe learn something i didn’t know that may even persuade me to vote for or against, or even to vote at all; than read just that you don’t like someone for no particular reason other than what they look like .etc

White Psycho, I like the Liberal Democrats too, they sound the most sensible and the least extreme. But they’ll never get in! Never ever ever. They have, I think, 11 per cent of the nations votes. 11per cent! It’s a waste of time voting for them, and probably if they did get in they’d change their policies. I mean, really, at the moment, they could say they were gonna do anyfing, cos they’ll never need to prove it. So out of Blair n Hague, I choose Hague. Best policies and I hate Blair. Oh, and Hague has a really nice wife, I really dig her.

actually, opalmantra, barbie’s not old enough to vote yet so it doesn’t matter.

and barbie, thanks for giving reasons, at least someone read and responded to something today. do you actually think lower taxes are a good idea? i wouldn’t mind paying more if it meant it actually went to health, public services and things like that rather than stupid things like the millenium dome; but of course that still depends on how much you trust the party you are voting for doesn’t it?

tories want to lower taxes they say but that could mean they introduce new ones to make up the revenue or they just cut public spending. Lib dems are openly saying they will raise taxes to try and make the public services better than they are, plus they want to abolish tuition fees which i really like the sound of.

Lowering taxes may not be a good thing, but in theory it should be. It depends what they spend the tax money on, and Labour have spent it on pointless things like the dome. If we all got taxed one pound more and it was spent on worthwhile things then that’s be better. But Hague says he wants to lower taxes (all taxes, and not increase it by Staelth or anything) AND spend it wisely. And Opalmantra, I might vote for the liberal democrats one day, but they won’t get in. I know it’s ridiculous, but that’s the way it is. My parents vote for them, and it just annoys them every election time. And anyway, I just have the point of view of an onlooker cos I can’t vote so maybe I’ll change my mind.

Look, millions of people died so that you could have the right to vote so please, everyone who can, VOTE!
People don’t believe they can make a change with just one vote.
Even if its a protest vote like me: Rainbow George sez if he/shes elected he/she will declare Belfast an independant city state!

they promise different things but never deliver, and all leaders get stumped by public questionning (think blair)
