I can vote if I wanted to, I follow politics and watch the world being ran and whatnot but still decline to vote.

My problem with the Lib Dems is they come across as so...wishy washy to me. Like, I don't think they'd dare make any major changes if they came into power.
I think our political showdowns are nothing compared to the almost carnival aspect of the american elections!
We need more stadiums and flashing lights.

I think lib-dems could surprise us. They're just not used to people paying attention to them. it's always been Labour VS Conservatives for the last 60 years.
if they get in watch them come out of their shell. they might even go mad with power. been a while since we had a proper mad leader.

just wondering if anyone else has decided who they're voting for.
I'm more a Tory in general political views, but my local MP is Labour and does do a pretty good job.

I suggest you look into the background of a certain Nick Clegg before using the 'posh Tories' as a reason. Cameron at least doesn't try to deny his background.
For me the LibDems are full of empty promises. They can say all the right things but can never say how they are going to implement them.
Cameron at least doesn't try to deny his background.
no, but he's always got an agenda. I remember his first day as leader. To try and show how "green" he was he cycled into work.
then the bit he didn't want to media to see: he sent his private car to bring his suit to his office.
David "Call me Dave" Cameron. In no way like a young Anthony "Call me Tony" Blair.
Where did he campaign? the north, to try and show he's northern at heart. Damn Eton boy has no business north of the Watford Gap.

I watched the leaders debate and I thought Nick Clegg was an excellent speaker and I agreed with him more than Cameron and Brown, but I don't know enough about policies and such to have a proper opinion really.
Life is about love, last minutes and lost evenings,
About fire in our bellies and furtive little feelings,
And the aching amplitudes that set our needles all a-flickering,
And help us with remembering that the only thing that's left to do is live.
I don't like no posh southern boy coming up here and pretending to be northern.
smarmy insincere git.
let him come up and make promises but don't try and pretend to be northern at heart. he's southern born and bred.
he has no idea about average life. I doubt he even knows what it was like outside London before he started this campaign.
Tories take care of their own. and their own are rich, posh, oxford, cambridge and eton. all southern boys.

Also, off topic but has anyone heard that tomorrow is the "To Write Love On Her Arms" Day? There was a group on Facebook (most reliable source in the world) and one of my friends was talking about it. I thought it was in November or something?

I'm indifferent to when it is to be honest.
Stop thinking about what I want, what he wants, what your parents want. What do you want?
