I really doubt any sensible working class person would ever vote the Tories back in. I remember Maggies fascist regime well.
...I think that the apathy is a result of the death of ideology - both the main two parties are both similar shades of grey and with Nick Clegg as leader of the Lib Dems, he is turning that party exactly the same. The electoral system is desperately in need of change, not tinkering with internet and postal voting. Voters need to think they are in control and that they can change things. There has to be some form of PR - my preferred choice would be a constituency based preference voting system - larger constituencies based around 5-6 of the old constituencies with 5-6 MPs each. Then the final outcome would better reflect voting patterns, but the single issue dangerous parties like the BNP/Respect would still find it difficult to make a breakthrough. It would also more than likely give everybody a preferred MP. If you are a Tory in a solid Labour constituency or Labour in solid Tory constituency, who do you go to if you have a problem?

personally I would stop the lot, kick the *fatherless children* back down the pit and dig some fringg cheap coal ;)
Amazin, If Iwas made redundant or was bankrupt I would still go to work. Even if it was working in a place I hated. I have bills to pay and would never ever not be in work.
He had back problems caused by a fall. He walked ok. He talked ok. The guy was a sponger on 18K a year. I know that if people are ill they need all the help they need. But come on 18K pa. Thats wrong. Now just to make myself absolutely clear. I know people who are genuinely ill need help and they should get everything they need. But some people extract the unrine.
I also work in financial services - in fact I'm Director of a Mortgage Brokerage, and I have yet to meet someone on benefits taking home this kind of pay... maybe there's a high net doley area that I'm not getting access to? Perhaps it's grim down South!
