Cheers. That's a relief, this time it was UKIP and not those fecking Greens. Which is probably just as well as I now have a 2.5 litre petrol X-Trail.....! :D

Came out as Labour first, UKIP last. That's actually about right!

Are any of the other 17 users who chose Labour going to come out of the closet with me and bovvy? :P

Me. They are far from perfect, but I look at George Osborne and I seriously consider reaching for the sniper rifle I have reserved for President Palin. "For the good of mankind", and all that...

Yeah, thats right, because socialism works....look at all the fine examples.

Which fine examples are you thinking of? Because the various totalitarian 'socialist' states are no more representative of Western social democracy than Nazi Germany is representative of conservatism. Not every leftist is a Marxist, any more than every right-winger is a fascist. All three major parties in the UK share a committment to democracy and to compare them to the extremes of their respective philosophies (communism, fascism and anarchism) does each a grave dis-service.

Yeah - but stops having to debate about policies. Particularly if yours is a one policy party (Greens / UKIP/BNP) a no party policy (Conservative) or a "promise whatever you want" policy party (Lib Dem / Labour).

Erm, can I change my vote?

We are not BNP lite as some of the fcuktards would have it, far from it, those same calls coming from marxists who are shiit scared of leaving the fold of their socialist bretheren in the EU.
I am voting UKIP and will keep doing so until the conservatives change their manifesto.

It is quite clear from Mr Farages various comments theat UKIP is seriously xenonophobic and yes in rerality BNP lite in all but name.

In reality I think Farage is rather clever, he has built up UKIP to ensure he can live on the EU gravy train for the rest of his life. The really scary thing though is that by his silly antics he could condemn all of us to another 5 years under the incompetance of my MP.
