Ditto. I think I'd prefer to see a hung parliament, than a massive landslide like we had in '97 (whoever the winner).

I can understand wanting to keep Britain British, & I'm glad you see the BNP are too extreme. The BNP don't simply want Britain to be British, they want it to be White, and they don't count non-white Britons as actually being British.

Strangely (for me) I think I'd prefer that to the Lib Dems teaming up with Labour.
I saw this re-Tweet by Dr Evan Harris (LD Science spokesman) earlier:

RT @kenanmalik: Labour Manifesto speaks just once of 'civil liberties' - in para that begins 'We will continue to make full use of CCTV and DNA technology'

I really do despise New Labour's track record on Civil Liberties.
As for the marriage rubbish...what rubbish are you talking about Damien? Get yourself a non-working wife, & you'll get three whole pounds each week!
You could use it to buy a pint, or save it up each week, over a period of 133 years, to pay for the average £20k wedding cost

The Week 1 thread is running until this Thursday, when Week 2 begins. The threads then change each following Thursday until the election.
[Admin Insert:- This week one thread is now closed. Week 2 thread is now open with the last 24 hours worth of posting. A new poll has been created as well to see if voting intentions have changed.
