the_engineer 1,415 Posted November 17, 2012 Is anyone bothering to vote in these PCC elections? I did and for some reason I have a postal vote even though I never requested one . I voted for ukip and a independent . I like ukip because they are offering something new . I believe the three main parties are very much part of the same tree. Before ukip There no party out there for a libertarian to vote for or someone who didn't want to be in Europe. They need to get rid of that awful pound sign logo though. the lib dems are the biggest joke of all really. I don't know who voted for them to have over 50 seats in parliament .Then Sold out all their voters as soon as they got a chance to be apart of the government .

Nick Clegg did what he said he would do during the election campaign. He worked with the party that had the biggest mandate from the electorate. His mistake was that he probably credited the Conservatives with too much integrity and has been surprised by how much they have dumped on him and how little control DC has over the rest of the party. The Liberal Democrats are being unfairly pilloried for the actions of the Government as a whole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When was the last time we had a referendum on anything important ? We have a referendum every five years it is a General Election. What is the point in electing leaders, when we want to micromanage every decision according to what the papers tell us is our opinion. The politicians should grasp the mandate, govern as they see fit and then present themselves to the country again five years later saying "Do you want more of the same?" I think you are right Nick Clegg will not lead the Lib Dems into the 2015 election but the Tories will try to portray any failures of the parliament as being because they did not have enough freedom to implement their agenda. The appropriate time to use referendums is for major constitutional changes such as the proposed switch to AV, Scottish independence or the abolition of the monarchy.

Magere Hein 1,400 Posted November 20, 2012 We have a referendum every five years it is a General Election. What is the point in electing leaders, when we want to micromanage every decision according to what the papers tell us is our opinion. The politicians should grasp the mandate, govern as they see fit and then present themselves to the country again five years later saying "Do you want more of the same?" I guess I can find it on Wikipedia, if I could be arsed, but I may just as well ask here: do the UK constitutional arrangements provide for early general elections after a government resigns? I ask, because Article 64 of the Dutch Constitution gives the government the right to dissolve the States-General, after which general elections must be called within three months. The appropriate time to use referendums is for major constitutional changes such as the proposed switch to AV, Scottish independence or the abolition of the monarchy. Indeed. I don't think governing by referendum is an efficient arrangement. In addition to the above list: there is good reason to put proposed treaties to a referendum, like the Irish do. regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rotten Ali 600 Posted November 20, 2012 Just written a long post in reply and the battery has run out... Shag... Basically UK governments don't resign. They like power too much. Only have elections if they can know they can win them. Only their own supporters like governments. Few people ever support the government, (no matter who). So don't rock the boat old chap. Carry on taking your pay and sod the voters till we need them in 5 years time. Then again it wil be time for jam tomorrow all round. http://www.theyworkforyou.com/wrans/?id=2012-11-19a.126127.h&s=speaker%3A24772#g126127.r0 No way could I have made this up but they are already getting ready for jam tomorrow... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The coalition set the date of the next election as May 2015 barring a vote of no confidence which they also made it more difficult to get. If David Cameron were to lose a vote of no confidence he would visit the Queen and ask her to dissolve parliament triggering a General Election. If the Lib Dems walked away from the coalition this is still a possibility but are unlikely to do so unless their polling status improved as they would probably be wiped out.

Was called Seafoam and it liquidised the carbon and didn't just make flakes with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
time 8,617 Posted February 4, 2013 Can anyone make any sense out of this? George Orwell would be proud. Deodorant bottles shrink to 75ml but remain the same price New eco-friendly cans of deodorant go on sale today that contains the same amount of product, but which is half the size.
