The United Kingdom Elections 2010

[Furunculus]

This isn't Question Time mate. You don't have to strain our credulity to score party points

No matter what you think of the man, there is no way that Gordon Brown is responsible for the mess that is our social security system. It's been a political football for decades. Some good ideas badly implemented, some bad ideas put into effect.

oh believe me, while i am a conservative dave and cuddley band of new-cons are not, so while I am batting against labour as i believe it to be the lowest form of cretinism, i am not batting for the conservatives.

my vote is UKIP's to lose, especially given that i live in a part of the country where the cons are a joint third place party a LONG way behind the two big local parties.

---------------------------------------

while i would be happy with daves six EU pledges, i have no confidence in him that he will enact them, so ukip is closer to my position.

whil i would normally trust cons over lab on defence, i have no confidence in dave that he won't make cuts, so ukip's pledge to spend a minimum of 2.5% of GDP on defence is attractive.

nothing else matters.
