Re: The 2010 General Election Thread: Week 1
My personal thoughts at the moment:
- Labour: I don't trust them and want them out. Hoon is our current MP and doesn't give a fig for us not to mention his corruption.
- Conservatives: I don't trust them although I'm not sure why, I would class my views as conservative but certainly not aligned with the party
- Lib Dems: For some reason I want to give them a chance even though I don't agree with all there policies. Also there local MP and councillors are the only ones who appear to give a damn
- UKIP: I agree with the policies they advertise but what about the rest?
- Green: Extremists at heart, have some good points but they have an overriding agenda which goes to far and will always stop me voting for them.
- BNP: Fascists, How anybody can actually vote for them I don't know, It's taken more than one attempt to write a forum friendly description.
Anyway, I've voted for Lib Dem at this stage. Its a combination of local interest coupled with reasonable national policies.
I do however have serious concerns as regards our armed forces which in my opinion should be supported, upgraded and expanded to keep us world class which I don't believe the Lib Dems will support and also, Europe which I believe the Lib Dems will be to eager to be increasing our integration when I believe we should be looking more at separation.
