Re: The 2010 General Election Thread: Week 1

here's a nice little snippet from Clegg

Quote:
Facing questions at a public meeting in Gateshead, he was asked whether the UK should encourage migrants.
Mr Clegg said there was "good immigration and bad immigration" but said the flow of migrants should be directed to parts of the country that could support an increase in population.
He said: "There are parts of Britain which are very, very overcrowded, particularly in the South East and there are other parts of Britain which are not."
Mr Clegg continued: "I think there's good immigration and there's bad immigration.
so they plan to allow more migrants in but spread them out a bit so no-one notices
would've been a great idea 20 yrs ago

All parties should be selling themselves on the benefits, not on how bad others are - could you imagine car ads being like that? "Don't buy Toyosan - they are going to cut their quality control staff in the future, and will put you and your family at risk!".

good point ,i would like to base my voting preference on how good a parties policy is not how bad the others are
