    I couldn't give a flying banana and I'm sure I'm not alone.

    Sleeping it off are we?

    It doesn't matter who you vote for. The Government alway gets in.

    What we need to do is privatise the Government. Maybe Richard Branson could run it for us. I like the sound of a Virgin Party.

    In my position it would be very advantageous to vote Tory.

    They routinely favour the more well off and offer me large tax advantages just to vote for them.

    I will not be fooled by their power at any price policy.

    Ask me why I would sooner vote Libdem or Labour,it might surprise you.
    Face it, the Tories will be in after the next general election, probably the biggest dead cert in recent history. Labour are finished for at least the next ten years, and the Lib Dems do not have the Base support although they may beat Labour into second.
    And before you ask, I'll probably vote Green or independent next year.

    I actually think its very likely that Labour might even lose the opposition position and it will make a refreshing change to have the Lib Dems point of view as long as its not from the premiere platform.

    Let's just pray that it is longer than that. Surely there has never been a worse government in all history. The 'two' Homes Secretary is a disgrace to such an important position
