Agreed. :)
jrh is right about the funding. Whoever funds it has an influence on the results whether we like it or not!

I do not support the UKIP or BNP (atm, i'm neutral, still don't know who) so these 'findings' don't really affect me but it's rather absurd imo.

by the looks of it you've just shared it with a whole of 40,000 habbox forum members.

Don't mean to be rude, Titch, but you don't capitalise your 'i's and you started a sentence with 'and'; in some forms it's acceptable but the A wasn't capitalised.

If you don't put to practice your English skills on the web then I understand.

Just sayin'.

and no your IQ can't dictate what party you support that is my point showing that that article is about as useful and Gordon Brown is influencing what is going to happen in this General Election.

well done for taking my post out of context. and no, you still can't measure intelligence as everyone is technically 'intelligent', but just at different things. just because someone can perform open heart surgery doesn't mean they're more intelligent than a plumber or a cook as they all have the "capacity of mind, especially to understand principles, truths, facts or meanings, acquire knowledge, and apply it to practice; the ability to learn and comprehend"

so as said earlier, you can't measure intelligence.

Of course these studies will always sway towards the people who fund you or else you will find your organisation closed down or under funded to death due to the poor results you show.

Many of the minor parties have some of the cleverest people in the UK supporting them so to put all their supporters in the stupid bracket its just a personal attack and to scare floating voters in to not voting for the minor parties in the fear of being branded thick or even racist.

On HxF we have Undertaker backing UKIP who puts his arguments over very well and gets a lot of support.

Jordy comes over really and shows a number of great articles about what the conservatives are doing.

I wont name the main BNP supporter incase they only support a number of their policies and are still an undecided.

We have a number of negative stories about the Labour party which should be highlighted and discussed :o I just wish your left wing labour and liberals :o yes you know who you are :o instead of branding everything as lies, claim the sources of the articles are not up to your left wing standards as your paper does have the story in (as if they would have negative stuff about the ppl they support) or personally attacking the people or their views but totally ignoring the articles. Maybe you should starting supporting your own parties by telling us what good policies they have and what good they do for the whole country? Then we can discuss those threads in great detail and not resort to your discriminating attacks.

Surely highlighting the good and the bad stories about all the parties is the way forward? You do NOT pick a party like a football team and then stick with them through thick and thin for the rest of your life unless you have a hidden agenda.

Yes well we are left wing dogooders after all :O. Having said that Jrh I think you will find that it is also applies the other way round. It depends what colours are pinned to the mast and what you particularly agree with. Many of us leftwing put our points across just as well but as you don't agree then you are going to find the posts you agree with more attractive - that's only natural. :P

This is a very low blow FlyDuo, even if this was relevant or even true, how earth does this matter? The report is 2 years old and biased and based on statistics from 9 years ago when the two parties were incredibly different.

The Lib Dems are onto a real winner with you as a supporter and potential councillor.

You are very right :) but you must admit that its perfectly reasonable for us all to agree or disagree but there are a number of threads where people refuse to discuss that actual thread and resort to attacking the sources, the person posting or their political views which is wrong don't you think? Although we are miles apart on our political views there can be no defence on some of the stories that have appeared on here. If you continue to defend the indefensible I will have to start calling you mrs Blair ;) :p

Well the problem is jrh you cannot take the media very seriously these days - in fact I wonder if they are not more powerful than the government or any of the main political parties. Also it would be nice if they didn't pick a little fact out of a bigger story which makes the whole thing completely out of balance and give a very warped perspective. This is true of both left wing and right wing media so the 'source' as you call it needs to be investigated properly before posting or people will challenge. You can call me Mrs Blair if wou want to - I really rate Tony Blair.

Introduction of:
Dragging Labour party into the 20th Century
10p income tax for lower paid ( abolished by Gordon Brown)
Minimum Wage
Child tax credit
Working Tax Credit
Pension Credit
Cold weather payments
An equal age of consent for homosexuals,
civil partnership laws,
Abolition of Clause 28 (a measure introduced by the previous Conservative administration which prohibited the promotion of homosexuality in schools).
Abolition of Incapacity benefit
Abolition of benefit payments to 16 - 18 replaced by EMA
A very stable and prosperous economy

Really? - lets have a good look at these then.

The introduction of spin and government to be dominated by spin doctors.

Now i'm afraid none of that makes sense. Labour raised taxes for everybody under their term in office, so what in the point of giving those taxes back which just costs money in red tape? - one big reason, to keep the client state running.

An equal age of consent for homosexuals,

---

Agreed.

Quote:

civil partnership laws,

---

Do not agree personally although mostly looked upon as a good move, so partly agree.

Quote:

---

Abolition of Clause 28 (a measure introduced by the previous Conservative administration which prohibited the promotion of homosexuality in schools).

---

Why should homosexuality be rubbed in our faces? - i'm gay and I hate the constant militant homosexuality that only serves to fuel homophobia, not rid us of it. A school should not be promoting homosexuality, it should simply be learnt and that is what school is about, learning.

Quote:

Abolition of Incapacity benefit

---

That benefit is still in place from what I gather and is abused by a number of people.

Quote:

---

Abolition of benefit payments to 16 - 18 replaced by EMA

---

A big waste to the state when that could just be cut off taxes in the first place, in short; a waste of money.

Quote:

---

A very stable and prosperous economy

---

A global boom which, internally, the government partly destroyed by spending more than it had and prevented British business from benefitting compared to other regions due to high taxation rates as well as hitting the consumer.

Well you are entitled to your opinion and I am entitled to mine. I was actually replying to Jrh and as he said:
