Wow, just watched Mr Keys (whose son was killed in Iraq) who was standing against Tony in Sedgefield give his speech and boy did he make Tony look uncomfortable. All credit to Mr Keys as he was dignified and calm in what must be very difficult circumstances for him.

Id rather have a monkey in charge of the country to be honest.

The British public really are utterley stupid they have given Bliar their support for every thing he has done, now he can crowe and do a cheesy smile and claim his actions were with integrity, and the British public support his actions.

Britain has once again let me down with its total stupidness in the polls people vote for the sake of it for rubbish, and now another period of tax, increased council tax, more tax on petrol, not forgetting tax, fabricated figures, fabrication and fabricated reports, more wars wasting money, worse public services (with fabricated figures showing them improving because they hide the truth), boast of a great economy (in which the bubble is so close to bursting, how long can a giant warehouse with declining manufacturing which kills its biggest assett small businesses with tax and bueararacy have a good economy paid for by credit cards)

So people who don't agree with your views and analysis are stupid :rolleyes:

Maybe people dreaded the thought of several million unemployed (a cheap labour pool) and out of control interest rates etc.....

Still they would save a couple of pence in income tax..............

Well, 37% of 60% have given him their support, which is only 22% of the electorate. 78% of the electorate didn't give him their support, so don't blame us.

If you think it's absurd that we get the grinning chimp back with a tiny minority of the vote but a workable majority in the Commons, join the Electoral Reform Society. I'm going to.

Still Labour round here, of course, but the majority was more than halved. Well done George Galloway, though, and the Lib Dems did OK too, not blisteringly well though, but the system's stacked against them.

I didnt vote for him thank god!!!!!
I hope they have a cabinet reshuffle and get rid of him that way. but at least the Cons are starting to win back. Paul voted Labour and I had a right go at him, after all the bleating about the NHS and the war, I think he was on something at the time!!!

Well the real winners in this election are
The no voters, In terms of electorate vote share we are now the majority, despite a minor increase in turnout. :)

I hate the fact Labour will talk about having a "mandate".
No government since the war has received more than 50% of the electorates support which for me is the "Mandate" point. :mad:

I'm with you on the Electoral Reform Society:tu::tu::tu:

Exactly. the only mandate that can come from 05/05/05 election is in actual fact a turning point in democracy.

The majority shall impose its will on the minority for sure is no longer a valid statement.

The foundation of all democracies worldwide now can look at GB as a democracy that stands for the minority shall (by default) impose its will on the majority.

Because of this very fact parliament should be disolved immedietly, a PR interim government should be instated while the country decides on a viable political reform.
