UK General Election on 5th May - voting intentions?

General elections in Greece are taking place only on Sundays. Good citizens go to vote after the church. Of course this constitutes a solid proof that God does NOT exist considering the 20 dark years of socialism :D

So, tomorrow before voting THINK: Do you really wish to be related to religious, socialist southern europeans by voting for the Labour?


At least I tried

:p

If people wanted socialism they’d vote for a left wing party like… er.. er.. er…

If you're waiting for that then I think you'll be waiting a long, long time, Brown is no more for old style Labour policies and socialism then Blair is! :)
 
My block just got sent a load of BNP leaflets. What's wird though is they only sent them to the female students in the block.

The political differences between Brown and Blair are much more style than substance. For domestic matters Brown has been pretty much running government policy through treasure targets since he became chancellor. Treasury officials often dictate top level policy to other government departments.

I'm not too sure about that, Brown is clearly way to the left of Blair in his opinions. I think the country is in for a nasty surprise when and if Gordon gets the top job.

As I said, for all practical purposes (on domestic matters) brown has got the top job, what Gordon lacks is the prestige which comes from being head of government.
Oh and any power when it comes to foreign affairs

Well we all know that women are the purest personification of the Anglo Saxon race. It's well known that Human can trace their ancestor back to a single female ancestor Africa sometime between 140000 and 280000 years ago, but that we trace our heritage back to a single male who lived much later, so women where here first and therefore all men are immigrants who should go back to Russia ... or something like that. ;)

I think you are absolutely right, unfortunately; but the popularity he enjoys amongst Labour supporters is because people think (or hope, or wish) that he really does have some (well hidden) socialist ideals. I have given up arguing about this with friends and relatives, as they may have the opportunity to become disappointed and disillusioned before too long without any help from me.

I wouldn’t say that socialist policies are ‘old style’; they are out of fashion for now but the pendulum swings, the wheel turns, whatever.

Well, we can’t do that, so a protest vote seems the most sensible option. That’s what I’ll do (the Greens) as I have done for the last two general elections.
