straight...I hate the idea of voting for a party just to keep another party out, how can we expect our elected to be representitive of our democracy when people vote this way?concept_ wrote:i find it interesting that the ones discussing and arguing this thread are mostly young- not that it is a bad thing, I just think it's an interesting observation.
@ whoever said Maggie Iron Flange Thatcher- made me lol, nice
@ Elbe- well said
@ all the bollocks racism propaganda on Boris- it is all spun by Ken Livingstone's campaign team- not to say it is untrue but his campaigners have been hacking work mailing lists the last week or so and sending this email around in a very backhanded, sly manner- you'll know from your work if you have received one. No it doesn't make Boris any better, but doesn't reflect well on Ken either and by no means should you judge your vote solely on a couple of "private" remarks and opinions made by Boris, as Im sure Ken is just as bad.
I'm voting for green party, and not just to make a mockery of a supposed "democratic" vote. Yes i know they won't get in but if people actually voted democratically and voted for those who they personally thought had the most pros over cons, over trying to make their vote mean something in a popularist sense, perhaps the outcome would be more democratic.
Also it make me feel sad as I see our politics becoming more of a slander and glitz show like the campaign runs in America, policies are what matter.
