You know your country is in deep shit when all the politicians try to do is convince you they are the least terrible out of the whole lot, come on, let's get real here, my opponent wants to blah blah blah

I can't vote but if I did, I'd vote for the BNP. I mean, nobody sane actually hopes they win anything, but I'd do it to get the message out that immigration (which is kind of like their only card) is a subject I feel strongly on, and if you can form a coherent, non-idiotic stand on it without being afraid of losing support, this vote is yours.

EU elections are done on the regional list system with loosely proportional representation within regions. Westminster elections are done on constituency first past the post where a simple plurality wins. It's very unlikely UKIP will ever get a plurality of the vote. Also people tend to vote for minor parties more in less important elections to express single issue opinions and return to core parties at the general election.

Not exactly relevant, but I'd like to remind people how giving the actual figures don't mean anything, since it tells us nothing about how difficult it will be to repay. One billion owed by, say, Nigeria versus one billion owed by the United States is a completely different matter. So try to get a proper context of what it really means to own this much money.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_external_debt, wiki has both actual figure and as % GDP.

Well there we have it, a new prime minster, David Cameron, hopefully the liberals and con's can work together so we don't have a messy election in 6 months time.

We'll have another election soon enough. He won't manage to govern effectively in minority and the first time he's challenged he'll make it a vote of no confidence. If he loses it he'll take it to the country.

Who said he would govern in minority?
It's far more likely now we will get a Lib-Con coalition.
Let's wait and see but I'm optimistic we will finally get a decent Government.

I never thought I would miss him, but I have to admit... That's funny, lots of my friends voted lib dem and are sooo shocked to see that their vote went to a coalition with Cameron as PM. They feel they have been fucked and I think they are right.

By the way, the same happened in France when Sarkozy got elected. I immediately realized that after all Chirac was not that bad at the end, I almost liked him from time to time. Maybe not. Compared to what we get evryday with the dwarf, Chirac looks like the good old time. And it was really really not that good in absolute.
The fellow who is out to burn things up is the counterpart of the fool who thinks he can save the world. The world needs neither to be burned up nor to be saved. The world is, we are. Transients, if we buck it; here to stay if we accept it. ~H.Miller
