If we are going to talk Blair seem a likes then I reckon Cameron comes closest..I've see nothing but spin from that gent since he became the leader of the Conservatives.

Him I trust no more than GB,and I'm not sure I trust Clegg that much more.

However I think I will vote possibly Lib Dem in the hope that it might wake up the other 2 can't tell apart political parties especially if enough people also vote for Lib Dem as well.

So basically I'm not voting for a winner just a basic kick up the bum to the present generation of politicians who really cynically don't give a turd for the ordinary voter except at election times.

I'm also wondering if the MP expenses scandal will affect the number of people voting.Will they be so incensed that they actually bother to vote in larger numbers than in recent years OR will the numbers reduce even more due to a belief that democracy doesn't exist for those in the terraced housing and the council estates all over Britain.
