Wink This is how you win an election

Don't issue ballot papers to the opposition and don't remove peoples right when they die

In the UK you can win on 35% (ala TB in 2005). No need to cheat if the system itself is corrupt.

Farage tbh. I don't 100% support everything he stands for, but he seems like the only one who actually believes in what he says! I also think the EU has had its day as far was we are concerned!

Cameron has been a big let down IMO, a lot of soundbites and in the case of Leveson big expensive reports ... but no real action! His latest **** filter thing was just so ill conceived I wondered if he was in fact losing the plot... the only good thing being that nothing will come of it as with anything else he says! Clegg is what I expected... a weasel who has sold his policies out for power!

Cameron's biggest priority is to ingratiate himself with the other world leaders, far more important to him than running the country for the good of the people.

Exactly, no different to Blair in that respect and just as loathsome.
