    How are you planning to vote?

    My local MP is very good for his constituency work from personal experience , I have voted for him, but I would not vote for his party if it were another person.

    I thought Stott was just like Rebus! , it just shows the power of the imagination when reading.

    How are you planning to vote?

    You would rather that the incumbent has a 100% majority and uses this a s a mandate,than let them know ,say,30% of his electorate are unhappy? Why would a politician care about you if you say you won't vote for anyone?

    Post election alliances

    Current state of play http://www.parliament.uk/mps-lords-and-offices/mps/current-state-of-the-parties/ 28 seats currently apart from the big three. What if the SNP, SF, SDLP, PC and one other made a bloc of 18 seats? (If SF take their seats etc ) DUP will go with Cons regardless?

    Farage this morning

    As I mentioned, Farage discussed immigration without any accusation of racism. It's just that he was unable to provide detail and avoided direct questions. It is a lazy smokescreen that people use, when they say 'you can't discuss immigration without being called a racist' . The printed...

    How are you planning to vote?

    So a 'Protest ' box would engage you, good. That's partly why I suggest the idea. You are of course entitled to debate ! But if you don't vote, then nobody of consequence needs to engage with you, much less take any notice of your opinion. Agree on FPTP system rendering many votes useless...

    How are you planning to vote?

    The first outcome would be that whoever did not vote would come under the 'apathetic or ignorant' label, rather than allowing the non voter the excuse of some kind of principled non participation. If you don't want to vote for the least worst option - and let's be honest that's really what...

    How are you planning to vote?

    I maintain there should be a box marked 'protest' or ' none of the above' so that the lazy or apathetic have no excuse not to vote. Also then we don't count people who are unable to fill in a ballot paper correctly as being among those making a conscious protest. Not voting is a lazy cop...

    Farage this morning

    I didn't see the TV show but on the radio interview 1. Farage was not labelled a racist for his views on immigration, so let's not use that as a smokescreen .He failed to answer direct questions, for example on his assertion that immigration stopped children playing in the streets, he was...

    Farage this morning

    Anyone hear his interview on R4 this morning? Very poor on failing to answer a direct question, and said we don't need to worry about 'the detail ' of his proposed immigration policy. Mind you, it might wake him up enough so he does some homework in order to give the others a bit more to...

    James Bond

    Having had a Scot and an Irishman play him, does it matter??!!! For me Roger Moore was Bond, for no other reason ( eg acting) than he was the one playing him in the Cinema when I was a lad.

    The latest anti-UKIP 'documentary'

    I agree on removing it fro being a political football. Again with Finland, education is not politicised.

    The latest anti-UKIP 'documentary'

    It seems to be a way of integrating subjects by giving them a context. So rather than students asking' why do we need to learn this?' , the question is ' what do we need to learn to do this?'...

    British Jewish women trapped

    You make a good parallel, suspecting a general population because of the actions of a few.
