Re: The 2010 General Election Thread: Week 2

I spoiled my vote last time althoug in my mind it is not voting full stop by doing so and i would much prefer a "none of the above" option that would show total discontent rather then being dismissed as so many spoilt votes are now. As for clegg's new found popularity i do find it funny that little more then what twenty minutes of that of him talking has swayed so many people and they really need to do more then park their backsides in front of a tv and decide.

None of them right now are completely convincing but GB is a complete non issue for me so it is between the tories and the lib dems. I just still think there is too much of the old liberal thinking left right now in terms of "we can say what we want because we know we won't have to implement it" and also the heavy reliance placed on vince cable as the sensible face of the party is a little worrying the man has got it wrong in the past like all of them he is not infalable.

I like the tory idea of us all together and more power to the people rather then central government but i need them to be a lot more clear about the finance side of it before coming down firmly on their side. I am liking the talk of coming down on those getting benefit that shouldn't be but would also like a reassurance that it will be done properly not a nice convinient huge brush sweeping up everyone in the process.
