where the fook have you been? every fooker and his boyfriend have been trying to convince us that they are spartacus.
Now you're back tell the imitators like martian to fook off
Just like when you went into the plumbing forum and tried to give out half-baked, ill informed 'advice' to anyone naive enough to listen. Like a punch-drunk, failed prize-fighter, you kept coming back for more.
Quite sad to watch someone desperate to show off, but not smart enough to quit when they're behind and being ridiculed by everyone.
Was that how it went in outer cyberspace as well?
In answer to the serious question, if it was a serious question, I'll be voting for UKIP as I've said many times. That may or may not result in another Labour government depending, of course, what the rest of the electorate decides to do.
If they have any sense, they'll all vote for UKIP (probably a forlorn hope) and we shall at last be a free country again, having escaped from the EU shackles.
If the usual idiots continue to vote for that incompetent and dishonest party (Labour), they will be free to continue their intended destruction of this country.
In the short term, I suppose, that may benefit older people such as myself, but that's because the Labour party can only see as far as the end of its nose. They'll borrow, borrow, borrow and spend, spend, spend and then, when it's too late, they'll wonder how they're going to get out of their self-inflicted mess.
Then the Tories will get in again, but I believe it will be too late next time.

The advice I gave was all good. You were to 'up yourselves' to realise it.
And on another thread you said she had your support... Ahh the fickle career that is modern politics. (mind you,, I bet you both enjoy the Party Whip ehh, (nudge, nudge, wink, wink)

To answer the original question:
There's a saying in British politics: Oppositions don't win elections, governments lose them.
As I'm sure every politician knows, voters are a fickle bunch. A government doesn't have to do very much to make itself unpopular - and this one has done plenty. But it doesn't automatically follow that the 'opposition' will get in. David Cameron should have had a landslide victory last time but he didn't. Why not? Possibly because of something I've always maintained, namely that the Conservative party would not become electable until there were a sufficient number of people who didn't remember Thatcher.
In my opinion, the Labour party has not yet shown itself to be all that credible either. Meanwhile, Nick Clegg virtually destroyed his party when he sold out whatever principles he had for a slice of power. I fully expect the Lib Dems to be wiped out next time. And UKIP? Well sorry Nigel but no deal. It's refreshing to hear a politician actually giving straight answers to straight questions - even when that answer is "I don't know" - but the best you can hope for is to hold the balance of power in yet another hung parliament.
