I reckon UKIP will get my vote.

Sadly that would be a wasted vote in my constituency, because getting the
incumbent Labour guy out by voting for the second party has to be my
priority.

No matter what I vote, the incumbent will stay, so I will do what makes ME
feel better


Also I'm concerned that UKIP don't stand for anything except exerting more
power over Britain than the other parties want. It's as if they want power
for themselves but won't tell us what they want to do with it. If they
promised that they would immediately pull us out of the EU and then they
would call a second general election immediately after, that would make
them look more honest and admirable.

I don't agree. They can split the vote. Have you not seen that Pearson
offered to stand UKIP down, if the Cons promise to hold an IN/OUT
referendum on the EU? He was turned down. Had Cameron said yes I wouldn't
have believed him anyway. His 'cast iron' promise didn't mean much, did it?

There's plenty of Gordon stories around today all about how he needs
to watch his back.

Seems his own party hates him more than we do.

The Con Party appear to be worried that hatred for Gordon Brown
doesn't mean more votes will be heading their way, and have began
making unwelcome overtures to the Lib Dems.


Brown was unelectable, even in his own party, fifteen years ago when
Labour sensibly chose Blair as leader.

That decision led to three election victories.

Brown’s only option of a route to power was therefore to eventually
seize power over the heads of the country and his own party.

He remains virtually untested in any election except in by-elections
where the results have been disastrous.

Brown was a turkey fifteen years ago so where does that leave him now.
The electorate hates him finding anyone, apart from diehards, prepared
to vote for another five years of Brown is like finding rocking horse
****.

Labour sleepwalked into this situation, on the back of their
disillusion with Blair, and, consequently, unless they deal with the
Brown problem, with all and more of the ruthlessness he applied in
gaining power, they will surely destroy themselves.

The issue for Labour now is survival as a party, a contained defeat
rather than the annihilation Brown will surely bring.

Ask any Tory what worries them most and for sure it’s Labour getting
rid of Brown.

Everything Brown touches goes wrong, often by the poisonous baggage he
leaves everywhere behind him, mostly by design (he's an idiot) and
sometimes even because he’s just a jinx that gets the sort of luck he
largely deserves for a treacherous political life lived entirely by
the sword.

Much of what you wrote contains some truth, but the above is quite
inaccurate. The recent Glasgow by-election gave his candidate a
surprisingly large majority, because his supporters largely went out
to vote and the opposition didn't bother.

The same thing could possibly happen in the GE unless the opposition
parties can get their voters to abandon their inertia and actually go
out to vote. Brown *could* get in due an exceptionally low turnout,
which would be the worst of all possible worlds.

And underlines the sad fact that few people in the UK understand how
the electoral system works.

Uk elections are like a restaurant menu with the 'choice' of chicken +
chips, chicken + roasties, chicken + salad...

What if you don't want chicken?

Who do we beef, fish, venison loving 'extremists' vote for?


I would vote for a donkey to get rid of Labour ;-)

If you're bored and/or frustrated with mainstream politics and mainstream

it's a
