I could cheat and look if and what Fr0d0 voted, but I am guessing left of centre would be democratic, so either Liberal Democrats or Labour (provided the UK scale and political parties compare to our political scale and parties).

The ground has shifted so far to the right that describing oneself as " left of centre " actually now means " centre " or worse. It's only old-style, unreconstructed socialists like myself who resolutely and defiantly call ourselves " left " and actually mean it. I'm talking UK here, by the way.  A 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?

Yes that'd do it Leo. Not that I'm really interested.

Soon there's meant to be a "Leaders' Debate" being organised by Sky News between Labour, Conservatives and Liberal Democrats. Battle of epic proportions and polar ideologies. +1 rep for the first person to spot the sarcasm... Good times. On a serious note, I think the leaders' debate would be pretty interesting if they put some smaller parties in the mix and gave an opinion which really varies from the norm. 
you forgot the SNP Scottish Nationalist Party, the Jedi and the Pastafarians
Frodo "polar ideologies" ? how the fuck do you tell them apart? A

The only party who are even daring to say something different are the BNP so we need a better party than that..........well the Scots have one its the English I feel sorry for. A

Indeed. If only Plaid Cymru had more guts
So long as the people of any country feel disenfranchised, it doesn't matter who wins the election- the people will always feel at loss.
At the end of the day, we elect people from our constituencies to put forward our views. If the only responsibility we take in this country is to vote for a party and expect them to take care of things on their own, can we really expect that politicians will behave as we would wish? Of course the main parties are all going to be more of the same. There's no pressure on them to be any different. |
