Fair enough.

Hmm, think about it, so much good anti-muslim material but no ability to post about it.
You know that bit in Scanners when someone's head explodes? :D

Isn't that what they did in Cuba, China, Laos, Vietnam, and PDR of North Korea?;)

Mr Sood's mother, Manjula Sood, also a Labour councillor in Leicester, has criticised her son for his comments.
"My late husband gave his life to the Labour Party and my loyalty is to the party and to what Gordon Brown has done for the country," she said.
"My son holds his own views but I'm very angry about this and very angry with him."
You have to love blind loyalty. I have to confess I'd be rather unlikely to associate my spouse with what Gordon Brown has done to the country or take the side of a political party over a member of my family but each to their own.

Looks like Labour were setting Gordo up to take the bullet, he'll quit if they don't win.
That way they can hope he'll take all the bad feelings against them with him.

Mr Brown said he might do charity or voluntary work, and that he didn't "want to do business or anything else - I just want to do something good".

The prime minister said Labour was the "serious party", in contrast to the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats.

"The Conservatives are too big a risk, the Liberals can't explain what they are doing - their policies don't add up," he said.
He's staying true to form though with the last few comments.

Oddly as soon as I read your post before that one I guessed you would be voting BNP, sadly I didn't get to post asking if my thoughts were correct as I had to go do the school run. :D

"The prime minister said that if he "couldn't make a difference anymore", he would go off and do something else. "

He's certainly made a difference. I don't think any of us could argue with that.

True. We have already lost it's just a matter of how badly we lose.

Ouch.

Here's a US style attack ad directed to Ed Balls from the Sunlight Centre for Open Politics.

From what I can tell Sunlight COPS seems to lay the smack down on politicians on both sides of the aisle, a quick search showed them causing grief for both Labour and Tories alike but of course that's no guarantee of them having no bias.

That is horrible. Hopefully we will see no more of these ads in the UK (although it's web online so not much you can do!)

If you vote for the Liberal Democrats you could wake up on Friday morning and see a Conservative-led government.
Screw any of that. I am just not going to go the bed Thursday Night! That'll show em.
