Here's the dilemma as I see it. Labour is shot, it needs a huge cull of the 'New Labour' 1997 intake to try and re-discover what the party is all about, it can't do that in government. The country needs a change but Cameron isn't that change, Cameron is Blair minus the convictions-even if those convictions are wrong.Just when the country needs change and some common sense Cameron is all style and soundbites. The Lib Dems are the Lib Dems- nuff said.In short, we are stuffed. Shocked

And thats how Obama got voted in as president, because he was so unpopular with the majority of the electorate? I think you're being simplistic again Obs Wink

No Asp; he got in cos most were so exasperated with Bush and Co. Rolling Eyes

Wirelss: think it's looking like a hung parliament, which may make decision making even harder. So after a year or two of humming and arring, ther'll be another election, Rolling Eyes

Errm strange; thought the credit cruch etc occured PRIOR to Obama being elected, fortunately he's avoiding turning a recession into a depression. The US also had a record deficit PRIOR to his election and the Chinese own over 30% of that debt. So I guess he's trying to look after the US people as a whole, not just the few! Wink

I'm not talking about the credit crunch Obs, I'm talking about his policy on CO2 emission reduction which would necessitate shutting down most of the country's economy as the emissions target is a figure equivalent to the emissions of the late 19th century. Brown and his sidekick Ed Millipede have the same policy for this country, and no number of windmills will save us Evil or Very Mad

thought he was swimming against the current with that one, as he has a sceptic congress and public? Confused

Hence his sudden unpopularity. People are starting to wake up and notice that "climate change" is just a scam Shocked

Think like most folk, they couldn't really give a damn either way, as long as they can carry on as usual. Wink

But now people are beginning to notice how much these "green" policies are going to cost them in increased taxation. Shocked

Well as I suggested on another thread, they won't do "austerity" either - so it seems the bubble will burst somewhere along the line! Shocked

The politicians are hell bent on wasting billions of our money on "green"issues like windmills and CCS when they should be investing in new nuclear power stations NOW! Evil or Very Mad

or coal. with fusion as the longer term goal. Confused

AND coal

They really need to wake up to reality, stop listening to the "environMENTALists" who want to send us back to the dark ages and start sorting the country out so we can face the challenges of the future. Rolling Eyes
