    I had a Lib-dem bloke turn up on my doorstep yesterday... on a feckin' bank holiday

    That’s good enough reason for me not to vote for the inconsiderate bastards.
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

          Agreed (although I confess to being a long-time Tory man). Anything that weakens them is OK by me.
          Blog? What blog...?

            Even on here some votes have been cast for labour, they must have rigged it! Can we have a recount.

              Maybe they're taking the long-term view - The longer Labour have the opportunity to balls everything up, the longer they'll be out of power once the penny finally drops.

                As long as the debt bubble explodes on Labour's watch.

                If not, Mr Thicky Average Voter will throw his hands up in horror at what he thinks the Tories have done, and Labour get back in for even longer.

                  Maybe they are old enough to realise whoever you voted for the Government always gets in i.e. more of the same
                  The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                  But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                    The question ios

                    Do you vote for Labour so they carry on being complete idiots in the mistaken belief we still love them (I never did)

                    Or

                    Do you take your opportunity to give them the bl**dy nose they so richly deserve, but then they make up to what complete [insert-as-appropiate] they have been and then improve in time to inflict another term of New Labour on us.
