I1L2T3 10 #13 Posted June 17, 2013 excellent post..... and i think more and more people are starting to realise this, it doesnt really matter who you vote for they are all the same in the old days when the Tories got in you knew the working class was gonna get screwed, but it evened itself out because when Labour was in you knew they would help the working class and even the score a little ... All the parties including the Tories at times used to work hard for working people. The Tories used to have a solid working class vote, not unwarranted. The game has changed now. None of them care. As a former Labour supporter I don't think I could be any more angry about what they have become. I hate them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

If you want the main parties to change, vote BNP. I doubt anyone that votes BNP actually wants them to form a government, I doubt Nick Griffin wants to form a government, my guess is the BNP just want change and will disappear once that change arrives.

I1L2T3 10 #15 Posted June 17, 2013 You don't think the three main parties might deliver similar policies because our electoral system forces them to aim for the middle ground to have a hope of getting into power? No I don't think that. The centre ground has been taken over by neoliberalism with a veneer of democracy and a policy of paying the economically disenfranchised off. Not many people truly understand what has happened. As long as they are given enough credit or enough benefits then they are kept passive.

As long as they are given enough credit or enough benefits then they are kept passive. I believe that the reason that many of the political party policies are so similar is that the policies are now think tank driven in a desperate attempt to grab votes, rather than led by any sort of political ideology.

They are Neoliberal to the core. That is the ideology. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Nick Griffin MEP @nickgriffinmep If I had the opportunity to squeeze Nigella Lawson, her throat wouldn't be my first choice. Frankie Boyle Frankie Boyle @frankieboyle @nickgriffinmep You're probably used to squeezing the women you sleep with to deflate them.

H Damnation 10 #22 Posted June 17, 2013 Two of politics most bizarre freaks. Not a big fan of Galloway but at least he is a serious politician with substantial support. The creepy little sex pest Griffin however will never be elected to parliament and will lose his MEP seat next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
