I'd say my methods are liberal-right but my views are more to the right.Quote:

Yeah but why would you on things like death penalty? There is a decent chance that people, who don't acknowledge the issue and consequences of mistaken identity etc will vote to bring the death penalty back. I want a strong leader who won't hold referendums to people please but will actually act on their intuition. Stability is arguably the key to a strong and therefore successful government, holding referendums on things left right and centre doesn't create stability. People will begin to question and it would just cause uproar.
Fully agreed. Referendums on everything would be idiotic.Quote:

**Secretary of State for Justice (and First Secretary of State) would be Sam because he does legal nonsense or something and is fairly adept at lying his way out of trouble.
**Bethie for Leader of the House of Commons because she'd be loud and make people do stuff by scaring them.
**Ryan (GommeStink) for SoS for Communities and Local Government because he's fairly intelligent for an Essex boy and apart from being friends with the wrong people generally does what he's told :P
**Smiddy as SoS for Defence because he's big and ginger and took over most of the world last year which is pretty good going.
**Dandertaker as SoS for Energy and Climate Change because he'd let us start using nuclear power which could be fun, and also it keeps him away from too much foreign policy while still letting him be a bit racist when he needs to be.
**Rosie for SoS for Health mostly for the irony.
**Chirs (Neversoft) as SoS for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs because he thinks he's foreign anyway.
**Marc as SoS for Transport because he likes boats and trains... a bit too much but oh well.
**Harry and Blake to share the positions of SoS for International Development and SoS for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs because they're foreign and obviously nothing exists in Australia so rural is all they know.
**Ashton (Metric) as SoS for Business, Innovation and Skills because because he likes money. He can take Work and Pensions for a bit too but we'll dissolve that because it'll be a laugh.
**SoS for Culture, Media and Sport can be Dandy Rave (-Wolverine) because I think those things are literally the only things that happen in Canada.
**SoS for Children, Schools and Families... err... Jen I suppose because she is a child, went to school every so often and is starting to raise her own family now.
The other positions aren't important because they're just about the Welsh and that rubbish.
hey thats mean but i agree
defossssssssssss not undertaker. erm probs immenseman or alexxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, reppin labour.
I'm afraid again this is a case of somebody treating the people like they are stupid. People know it can go wrong and has gone wrong, but as I have said before, it would only be used in the strongest cases. On the referendums issue, yes it does have stability. It means a policy is voted on via public opinion and not that of the ruling elite and leaves no doubt in peoples minds on the issue of government, what is voted for goes - simple as that. It cannot get more simple.Quote:

Oh because it would mean popular ideas such as death penalty and withdrawal from the European Union possibly taking place? - the left (as shown by this thread) could never stand the possibility of general opinion turning into policy.Quote:

It's obvious that making rash decisions and giving complete power to the people just wouldn't work. It's like imagine the users of Habbox were allowed to decide in a vote who would be General Manager, it wouldn't be the right person for the job, it would be a popular individual. Or if there was a poll on here "Should HabboxLive stay open?" I reckon that would be a very close vote, as would capital punishment. HxL closing because of a majority wanting it to isn't beneficial for Habbox, like capital punishment isn't beneficial for this country. Referendums on such things won't improve a thing. Simple.
You'd be bottom of my list to vote from this forum, just below GommeInc and Robald :8
