@ Bozo
What I meant by the shift is how Conservatives appear to be less fascist than Labour now. It's almost as if labour have taken a turn for control and the conservatives are wanting to give freedom back to the average people (ID cards being scrapped is a good example). The conservative party seem almost... promising? (Yes, I said it Tongue)

I sure hope the early election isn't called. I'm not old enough to vote until October.

The conservatives are where Labour was in 1997. Labour became " new Labour " which really meant " new Conservative " in order to win over " middle england " i.e. the small minority of floating voters that have come to decide who wins in the First-past-the-post system we have.
Cameron has done all that he can to ditch traditional toryism ( he says the tory party was seen as " nasty " ) and will do anything, including being left of Labour ( which isn't dificult ) on those issues he thinks will win the election.
I'm repeating myself but it really boils down to the 3 main parties being capitalist parties and there being no other realistic options for voters whilst fptp remains. That is why millions no longer bother voting at a general election.
Finally,Luke, if you think Cameron's tories are " promising " have a look at the Euro parliament and see the right-wing parties the tories are going to line up with at Brussels.
HuhA man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
