@Pand: No problem, I appreciate it
@Dyst: Yes, I am worried we have the illusion of free speech, with dodgily written stuff ready to snatch people saying stuff that ruffles feathers. For god's sake religious people (the ones wishing to silence free speech), grow up! Learn to laugh at yourselves, and to either debate criticism of your religion or just ignore it. For people who claim to have omnipotent gods on their side, their faith sure seems fickle.
@Tony: I would be considering Conservative if it wasn't for the fucking fox hunting. As for Europe, I don't know whether a referendum is just something to keep everyone happy rather than having any chance of leading to something happening. It's not a decision that can be made lightly or quickly. I remember when Scotland were voting on leaving the UK and the effect it had on the stock market. What would the referendum do to it?
Faith schools are horse shit, as is having Bishops involved in politics. I don't think I knew about that last thing... what the hell? I suppose since we are technically a theocracy we're doing pretty good! But still. Stop that. Maybe Milliband wants us to be a Muslim theocracy instead.
I admit to being pretty ignorant in general about politics, but I feel I know a little more about it this time around.
PS: I wonder if Labour are going to lose the racist voters as well with this move. Have they done the maths? Probably UKIP will pick those up.
