I am not really paying any attention to the news either... what is gonna change, nothing much, is it chosing one evil over the other..
 
I'm lost with it all,theyre all as bad as each other especially when they want our votes >:(
 
I understand all that, i suppose cause out here it's big news cause well you guys are PRETTY big and we follow you :)
Do you know the guy that's coming in at all?
 
I have no idea who's taking over.

Mike says they have to have a new campaign for it, but might be Gordon Brown as he's the chancellor
 
he leaves office next month, what I cannot understand is why Gordon Brown should be prime minister i thought we got to vote for OUR prime minister not get 2nd in line to take over the one we did vote in, TB said 10 years is enough for him and us , thats right jump while we sink under immigrants and law and order problems, bring back Maggie with her zimmer frame bless her this country runs better being run by 2 women the Queen and maggie, i think a lot of people will now vote for alternative partys now, me included, the main partys are all led by idiots who dont listen and like others posts not many people are taking much notice anymore that's how disillusioned they are with it all,
 
our house now has to listen to more politics etc... cause Scott's doing his uni course - International Studies and one of his majors is Politics :o

Mike says we don't have the choice as the Labour party are still in control and we don't have another general election yet
 
Doesn't he step down the 28 June or something?

Oh wow that's cool that you follow us O0
 
My boyfriend is way into politics.... just been elected a councillor so I have to listen to it all the time too!

Glynis, Gordon Brown (the new guy) has been our chancellor since Tony Blair was elected. He probably has the second most important job in government anyway as in my opinion deputy prime minister isn't that important over here as I think it is in America. The story is that as young politions (perhaps even at uni) they made a pact that Gordon wouldn't oppose Tony as leader if Tony agreed to step down after a couple of years and let Gordon take over. After 10 years Tony is still there with probably only 2 years left for Gordon to be PM so it is thought that they aren't quite as friendly to one another any more.

Gordon isn't quite as charismatic as Tony Blair but what he has been a good chancellor (LOL my opinion but I know loads of people are going to disagree!)

Michellemuffin - I understand that it doesn't seem fair that Gordon should get the job just because we have a labour government but that is due to our politic process. We vote for a party as oppose to a leader (although I know that the person in charge does make a difference). I do think however that he should face some opposition from within the party however because I hate seeing people win elections because they are unopposed. The opposition are trying to kick up a fuss about him taking ver leadership but as was pointed out quite rightly yesterday on the news John Major took over from Maggie for 2 years before a general election.

Just my opinion anyway... I know people won't agree with some things I've said but that's what I love about this country we can say what we like!
 
ahhh right now I know, but like many others I did vote for the person not the party its the persons abilitys not the partys abilitys i am interested in and that stinks they made a pact at Uni thats taking us for mugs , my hubby had his pic taken with John Major when he was a copper, still got it, but even he was not as strong as Maggie was, we really need some one who can rule for us , things like Iraq I think we should have had a vote on we would then have a true opinion on whether to go in , our choice not theres , hummmmm politics are so complicated its probably easy saying things like we have too many immigrants no more from now on we have too many problems with crime cage the guilty and stop letting them get away on technicalitys :tickedoff: hubby was a copper so I know what stupid reasons got them off , thats why he among others left or are leaving , we need a stronger police force and someone strong to run it NOW and no more red tape and for gods sake bring back strict matrons for hospitals like in carry on films they would never let bugs get in , I know I get carried away but I need an op for fibroids but am not prepared to risk my life catching God knows what, if Gordon Brown does all this then Good on him but somehow I doubt it ,

I hate sounding really sad but even if you hate all the parties and think politicians are liars fair enough but what goes on in government does matter I'm afraid. My one pet peeve is when people say I don't vote because I don't care.

I tend to find that it's these people who are the first to complain when they don't like what goes on in Westminster. Protest vote, spoil your ballot paper... stand in an election! Just please don't not do anything!
