Re: New centrist political party may be formed in UK
France and Israel are examples where start-up parties won the electoral day because of public disgust with the main parties.
A pity that the Kadimah party in Israel had a corrupt PM. A pity that France has that running dog Macron. I hope a new centrist party in the UK learns the lesson, has some competent people and contains the right Tories. |

Problem with our electoral system is that it's impossible for any third party be that Libdems, UKIP, SDP (remember them? This sounds very similar). Best to try and kick the extremism out of the main parties, both seem to be deserting the middle.

However, the votes for Left of centre parties would split, providing the Conservatives with the majority they are seeking. |

Or a coalition with the Conservatives, which I don't particularly mind.

People don’t want a centrist party. They resoundingly rejected the Lib Dems so I fail to see what else one can bring to the table.
As for moderating influences in coalitions the last one gave as the benefit freeze, two child cap on benefits, tougher benefit sanctions and the bedroom tax. Hardly huge victories for moderates. Oh I forgot my personal favourite- trebling tuition fees. |

People might be so fed up with the existing parties that a new party is what they'll plump for if the people seem right.

If brexit goes against the wishes of the majority, beware of Farage waiting in the wings to pounce.
I believe that the 2 main parties started to become afraid of the support he was getting (if not votes, councillors and MPs), hence the sudden decision of Cameron to call the referendum. |

The increased tuition fees will only affect those who obtain a well paid job at the end of it; most will never pay it all off and some won't repay anything at all. They could make the fees a million pounds a year and the position would be exactly the same. The two child policy is something that i've advocated for for years, but the Government decided to impose a benefit cap instead.....then they decided to impose a two child limit for some claimants too! I don't agree with the benefits freeze or the bedroom tax. ---------- Post added at 15:54 ---------- Previous post was at 15:50 ---------- Quote:

I can’t think of any Conservative policy implemented since 2015 that is measurably worse than anything 2010-15.
