General Election 2010

[GommeInc]

Pffft, like any prime minister would make a difference :/ Looking at the policies (or what were the policies) in the past, they were all the same, just worded differently. I really do not know who to vote for, candidates seem to argue amongst themselves rather than address their policies and what they will change - They never clearly state what they will do, they just let the voters pick up the points in scrambled arguments.
Not forgetting how the UK sits as far as EU policies seem to go. Whoever is elected would have to follow EU regulations making seperate parties pretty much void of opinions and policies. You may aswell vote for who has the best voice or looks sexiest, because that's about as much use as you can get :/

Tories, hopefully.

They might be able to apply some common sense that hasn't been seen in parliament for a while now.

[Frodo13.]

Tories will, but I doubt they will get longer then one term in office. I personally don't want a bunch of out of touch s**** running our country, who still havn't proven that they could do any better than the Conservatives at running our country.

With the current problems with the economy, uneducated people who ain't got a clue about politics or the economy look for someone to blame, and that man is Gordon Brown unfortunatly.

I know Tories will win, but cameron? He's not going to do a better job.

i've changed my mind now. although there's not much chance of it, i actually wouldn't mind the lib dems winning. labour wouldn't bother me. if the tories get in then at least everyone could see they aren't the right thing for this country.

[Fez]

With everyone shouting "TORIES FTW!" and "STHU, THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING." I'd just like to point out that we don't have a damn clue what they will do in office. It's obvious that they have a way bigger chance now thanks to the face of Gordon Brown all over the Labour party - but Labour still has some better policies than Tories.

Sorry, I meant they havn't proven they will do a better job then Labour. As I said, the only reason people will vote Conservative is because they blame politicans for things that are out of their control, such as the recession.

[Hecktix]

I never worked out why Labour managed to win in 2005 either, especially after the disgrace of the Iraq War.

Labour managed to win in 2005 due to nobody trusting the Tories.
The problem is they did as much bad as they did good in their what was it? 17 years in power? It's hard for some people to forgive

you can't seriously think david cameron is going to be able to get us out of this recession?

No single leader or party is going to get us out of the recession.
After all it's a worldwide economic crisis, what's it gonna be DC SAVES THE WORLD? I don't think so...

Conservatives will likely get it because despite most of us only having real memory of a Labour reign, they are the predominant party of Britain and Labour aren't entirely popular at the moment. That said, I don't think it'll make any difference as currently Conservatives aren't very conservative and Labour aren't anywhere near as socialist as they once were - both are far more central and frankly I don't expect too much of a change whoever wins.

Too true they very similar, however if the Tories got in I do think people would want Labour back.

I agree they are too similar now, but I do think the major difference between Labours socialist stance and a Conservative stance will be government red tape. I think with a Conservative government the erosion of our freedoms and rights will pause, until ultimatley another Labour government gains power again and sets up new databases/bureaucratic laws.

And no doubt they will lose these databases on trains :rolleyes:
