probably only applies to UK members.

What political party do you support? if any?


I'm a Lib Dem guy myself, even though I know there is almost no hope for them to win an election (hey, its not like I can vote yet anyway) without some form of proportional representation. I just like what the party stands for, and the fact that, like Labour and the Conservatives they aren't just moving away from the traditional roots and towards the centre chasing after the public opinion.
Also I can't help but think that David Cameron is a smug minnie-moo-foo-foo of a man.

It seems that the only party that really gives a fuck about getting the UK back on track, sorting out immigration, the army, the economy and everything else that the Man In The Street want sorting is the BNP, but they're a bunch of racist mongoloids, so we're pretty much fucked any which way.

I'm on the voters register (obviously) and I don't vote, because NONE of them are worth my little X.

I've not voted for years because there's nobody worth voting for.

The principle behind the BNP is sound, I've seen some of their leaflets and it makes perfect sense. The party itself isn't racist, its nationalist: it doesn't matter about the colour of your skin, if you're British and accept / support the British culture you're fine.

The problem is the high ranking members of the BNP are all racists so the message gets lost. Kinda like communism, good on paper, not in reality.

As for me, I haven't voted since some guy ran for the Legalise Cannabis party about 10 years back. I don't smoke it, don't really care for people that do, but he was the only one who got off his arse and went door-to-door and his reasoning was very sound. Although now the Pirate Party has a UK presence I'm keeping an eye on their activities and seeing where they go.

I'll happily vote when there's somebody who I actually agree with. As it is, the main three parties just bicker like children in a playground, accuse each other of lying and fail to realise that they're all exactly the fucking same.

Just can't be bothered with politics. Nothing changes.

The BnP has a role in the UK politics not as a leader (hell No!) but as a referance for the mainline parties to judge when there immgration pollieys are to laxs
currently there is much support for BNP due to the fact the EU has allowed lots of eastern euroupain nationals to come live here doing the low skilled work that the lower classes used to do and doing it cheaper.

ive worked with them. i like them but there is too many here, and getting a low skilled job is hard for me, but i still wont vote BNP but i see there use.

one more polish doing a low skilled job here is one less job for a national english. and thats why people vote BNP as i see it

I seem to recall something similar happening a couple hundred years ago. Now what am I thinking of? :hmm:
