    I would also like to see future north sea oil revenue put aside (as per norwegians) in a sovereign fund.
    It's already spoken for - to pay off the interest on the billions of National Debt.

  • I think my choice of party might boil down to which one is best for my hard earned and hard saved (shallow, I know).

    ...

    To me, my income and savings are quite critical to the lifestyle and survivability of me and my family. I would like to vote for a party (if there is one) that would have greater chance of preserving my assets for my betterment.
    I recommend the Socialist Workers Party.
    Alternatively, you could step back into the time portal and return to the 1800s, eh comrade?
    For the avoidance of doubt: I work for an IFA.

    More than a little irony in the link, I would suggest.
    Bring the troops home from Afghanistan?
    Who sent them there in the first place? The pseudo Socialist gang of Bliar, Brown and Cook.

    ill be voting BNP and im proud to shout it from the rooftops. they are the only party that gives a hoot about white british working class people. yes some of their views are a bit extreme but atleast they are man enough to stand up and be counted. they start debates that NEED to out in the open.

    Only if you're white. I suspect that they're a little worse than that if you're not.

    What, debates about whether non-whites have the same rights as whites? That "debate" belongs with slavery: long in the past. They're an awful bunch of racists, nothing more.

    the whole debate about closing our boarders, chucking every illegal immigrant out etc etc the list is endless.
    every other political party are too scared to speak up for white british people out of fear of the PC brigade.
    white british people have been pushed to the bottom of the pile.
    if people find the BNPs views offencive then let them be offended, being offended never killed anybody.
    I find it offencive that women in alot of muslim and indian cultures have no righits, and have to get their husbands permission to get divorced, I find it offencive that extreamist muslims use the holy book to justify terrorism, but you dont see me running around screeming blue murder.
    If the BNP represents facists and bigots what does every political party that voted in favour of the Iraq war represent? liers, cheats and murderers? the leaders of our country are the leaders of one of the largest terrorist organisations in the world (next to America) who have been responsible for one of the largest mass murders in history.
    hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi men women and children murdered, so America could protect their oil interests.

    The constant whining and self-pity of BNP types gets a little wearing. If you're at the bottom of the pile did it ever occur to you that it might be your own fault?

    Sorry I take people as people no matter what the colour of their skin. If you want special nannying just because you're white skinned then I'm sorry but I don't think you deserve it.

    nope, i just want to be treated as an equal im my own country.
    how is it right that native people have to feel scared of saying what they think because they fear being branded a racist? :confused:
    im far from it, i have many asian friends, and alot of them are sick to the back teeth of the pc brigade saying what they should find offencive.
