So who's going to bet on the UK 2010 General Election?

Oh my word - Steves put a controversial post up here!

Ive always been a bit Blue personally but have to admit through gritted teeth I actually thought Tony did a good job at first but things seemed to have gone downhill a bit with Mr Brown at number 10.

Im still sat on the fence though as im not sure if the Tories have enough strong characters in their current Party to pull off an outright win.

That being said with the expenses row still ringing in everyone

You are a bad man Steve.

Politics and econonomics my ranting sweet spots.

Tory all the way. They pulled off a blinder with Cameron.

Tory whip:
lets see who resemebles Tony Blair the most.

Tory whip:
You boy whats your name

Blair lookalike:
Cameron sir

Tory Whip:
congrats your the new tory leader.


Politics is won on marketing not policy.

apart from my geeky self who on here actually times to log on to the appropriate site and review the relevant party's policy. I woudl hazard a guess at not many.

Cameron also takes the womanhousewife vote purely on his aestetics and family man persona.

look at Charlie Brown for god sakes he has the charisma of a Sweaty Gym Sock (did you like what I did there)

Damn you Steve
I am ranting away like a man posessed.

Thread up fro less than 45 minutes, and Stavros is all over it

Me thinks we may hearing a lot more in the future.....

I am looking for a Firefox Forum Blocking tool as we speak as I can feel the rantometer maxing out.

so the forums stepped up a gear

ok, well I reckon you guys need the Iron Lady back in charge

I would have Maggie back at the drop of a hat, the best men that have ever run this island were women, Queen Elizabeth and Maggie!

I do think we will see the Tories back in on this one, and although never been a Tory fan, I think they are likely to take a flagging country and bring it back up to some extent, the best thing about having a back seat is that you can see things a lot clearer than those in the front seat, its just down to how long will they last, and will they totally mess things up in their wake, or actually pull it back to where it should be!

I like Mr Cameron, he's young, full of energy and seems less stuffy than Brown.

I am not a die hard fan of any of the partys but my beef with labour is the fact that they are meant to be a socialist party.

so you tell me what is socialist about high house prices, postcode lottery for schools, perscribed medication lottery and being part of the european union.
The second biggest communist regim on the planet.

The list for me goes on and on. Torys dont try to be socialist they are jammed full of the old boys club so at least we know we are dealing with a bunch of cads and cant deal with them accordingly.


I will always stick by my opinion Brown and co are just Torys in labour overcoats.

and that fact that none uf us voted the ( insert copious amounts of expletives here) into power.


Grrrrrrrr
Rantometer is off the scale again.

I think Socialist Politics, or at least in the UK are gone for good. The country as a whole is wealthier. The average working man has a car in the drive and a satelite dish on the roof. It may be on credit, and we are rightly or wrongly a lot more consumer driven and materialistic, but this has made a large centre ground, which all the parties are fighting over and trying to define.

UK Socialism to me is the dark Union controlled days of the 70's, "1 out, all out" and are hopefully over.
