Who would vote for me as Prime Minister of Britain?

[Social Moon Firesky]

I really do actually hope to set up my own political party when I'm 18. I could do so much better than Tony Blair! :D So, what do you all think? What do you like about Britain, and what needs to be improved?

[Psychotic]

Unless you stand in as a candidate in our constituencies, we can't vote for you, and as you can only stand for one constituency which I doubt will be anything other than your home town (Which I doubt is the same as mine), no I can't vote for you. And also you need to be 21 to be an MP, not 18. (I *think*). This is what you get for doing A-Level Politics, I guess.

Besides, I'm voting Conservative. (My 18th Birthday is 1 week before the election, haha!) :p

[louby_4eva]

I don't really undertand politics and all that stuff but I dislike Tony Blair, so you would get my vote (if I was old enough).

[boris no no]

i think that you need to be a local MP before anything. to be one of those you need to be old and smelly!
:P
i'm going to vote green! mainly because i don't like the look of any of the parties! ;)

[Craig]

When I turn 18 i'm not voting for anyone.

[Del Murder]

Where do you stand on the taxing of imports?

[Shoden]

Britain needs to stop immigrants sneaking in and do more things about urban places

[gokufusionss1]

i wouldn't vote for anyone who stands for government on the grounds that they "could do better". Because it usualy means they invariably can't and hold no idelogical concepts leading to a population led leadership which is allways a bad idea. But don't give up...... :rolleyes2

[Chris]

When I turn 18 i'm not voting for anyone.

I'm eighteen and I voted for Michael Jackson.

[Maxico]

do more things about urban places

Like what? Nuke London?

[Jojee]

Nuke London!

[Maxico]

;_;

I live in london.

[Jojee]

...Not only nuke, but nuke it <i>viciously</i>.

I mean really, what does London have to offer us? ^_^

[Maxico]

You have a point...

[The Captain]

England is the home of spam, (spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, SPAM, the wonderful spam) how would you protect this precious resource?

Also, what is your view on invading other nations more or less because the USA said so?

Take care all.

[boris no no]

...Not only nuke, but nuke it <i>viciously</i>.

I mean really, what does London have to offer us? ^_^
nuke derbyshire. please. at least london is a little trendy....

[amratis]

I really do actually hope to set up my own political party when I'm 18. I could do so much better than Tony Blair! :D So, what do you all think? What do you like about Britain, and what needs to be improved?

Everything


nuke derbyshire. please. at least london is a little trendy....

No its not, it just thinks it is :p

[Mindflare]

Um... best of luck...? I'm not even British, so it would be of little concern to me. *shrug*

Silly politics.

[Meat Puppet]

I don't vote.
All the "cool" kids do it.

[DMKA]

England is the home of spam, (spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, SPAM, the wonderful spam) how would you protect this precious resource?
Aren't Psy and Misfit from England?

I'd vote Bush because he's the best man ever on the face of the earth.

[Harvest Moon]

Britain needs to stop immigrants sneaking in and do more things about urban places
I get upset with O Reilly for this one too and I worship him so don't take it personalybut bull, you should feel so complimented that foreighners WANT to come into your country and are willing to go to such extremes to get there. You should open aliens with open arms, they tend to be some of the most inttelligent hard-working people you'll ever meet..

As far as your British ghettos are concenred, bahh, just more tax money wasted. Let the bastards pimp thier hos and sell thier smack, live in thier own project ruts and eventualy get shot by crypts or whatever... or if you prefer save us 75% of our money by just buying a bunch of equipment and sending multiple S.W.A.T.S in there to raid and kill anyone within a ten mile radius of said area. To insure one way or another that those burdens of society are dismayed..

[Psychotic]

Aren't Psy and Misfit from England?I sure am, but she's from PA, USA. Or so she claims, but then again I sent a Christmas card to there and apparently it arrived, so there you go.

[Jojee]

Stop stealing my pink, Psy :(

And this is precisely the reason we must nuke England.

[Meat Puppet]

nuking is conformist :mad2:

[Advent Child]

When I turn 18 I'm writing in a vote for the "Nationalist Socialist Party of Canada". I really don't care who wins, I never really notice a difference anyway.

That being said, if you were running... Sure, you could have my hypothetical vote. Whatever.

[DMKA]

I sure am.
See...teh spam = :<3: England.

[Social Moon Firesky]

"Also, what is your view on invading other nations more or less because the USA said so?"

My view is for pacifism. I'm totally unorthodox when it comes to politics. I'm not even taking A-Level Politics, 'cos it sucks. I'm not going to nuke anywhere, 'cos that goes against my morals. World peace anyone? Also, no offence anyone, but Bush is a total idiot. He honestly doesn't have aclue about the pain and suffering he's thrust upon the Middle East. If anything, he's intensified the conflict's magnitude. If I was to get voted in to power, I wouldn't support this kind of moral evil. Spam would be declared an endangered species, and I would do everything in my power to protect it. :D

[Resha]

I just sorta understood American voting. Now I'll have to understand the British voting system, too. :(

[gokufusionss1]

what is the point in nuking London there would be no difference.

[Project G]

A crackdown on chavs

[boris no no]

I just sorta understood American voting. Now I'll have to understand the British voting system, too. :(
its not too hard really. i understand the basics so its GOTTA be easy!
:D
theres three 'main' parties, the ones with powe
the conservatives (tories)
New Labour
Liberal Demicrates (sp?) (Lib Dems)
each one stands for pretty much the same thing but say that they're each different.
they're all run by old fat men and they fall asleep in the house of commons.
then theres the smaller parties, the ones I'M going to vote for!
they don't really have the same amount of power buit they are cool! :cool:
I don't know all of them...
The Green party (very good!)
The Loony party (run by a dog.....seriously!)
UK independant party....i think
then some others that i don't pay any attention to!

erm....they all shout at eachother and drink tea...

thats it! :D

Britain needs to stop immigrants sneaking in and do more things about urban places
you'd better get rid of me.
my dads parents snook in from Ireland
my mums from Germany and Russia.

[Social Moon Firesky]

For the last time, I'm not getting rid of refugees. They have as much right to live in the UK as we have. So what if they're not born here? They need to shelter from the violence of their own country, so it's our duty to take them in. Besides, they take the jobs we don't want, and saying you want to get rid of them is insane! Britain is a multi-cultural society. That's what's so good about it! Anyway, my party will be better than any of the other old farts'. How many young politicians do you see on the news? None. And my party'll be cheerful and peaceful and nice and above all else, R A N D O M. Like me!

[Pauten]

you'd better get rid of me.
my dads parents snook in from Ireland
my mums from Germany and Russia.

Wow thats cool, I have Irish decendants too! :D

I'm voting New Labour, I always say its better the devil you know. Blair seems to have taken a moderate stand against Bush as of late though. But still America wise at their next election I hope Hillary Clinton runs for the democrats.

[gokufusionss1]

For the last time, I'm not getting rid of refugees. They have as much right to live in the UK as we have.

In a literial and political sense, no they don't.



Britain is a multi-cultural society. That's what's so good about it

Britain is far from multicultural and the fact that multiculturalism is a good thing is debatable.

[Psychotic]

For the last time, I'm not getting rid of refugees. They have as much right to live in the UK as we have. So what if they're not born here? They need to shelter from the violence of their own country, so it's our duty to take them in. Besides, they take the jobs we don't want, and saying you want to get rid of them is insane! Britain is a multi-cultural society. That's what's so good about it!I don't mind Britain taking in legitimate refugees, but I do have problems with us taking in refugees that have travelled through 5 or so safe European countries to claim asylum here. And haha, how many immigrants to Britain do you think are actual refugees, or just economic migrants wanting to abuse our health service? And I don't think the multi-cultural thing is a good thing either, it just leads to anyone mentioning the original culture being branded as racist or unpolitically correct. Have you ever noticed how every TV show has black/asian characters or presenters? It's totally unproportionate as those minorities make up 5% of the total population, but to say "Hang on a minute, this is reverse racism" is branded racist.


Anyway, my party will be better than any of the other old farts'. How many young politicians do you see on the news? None. And my party'll be cheerful and peaceful and nice and above all else, R A N D O M. Like me!Haha, you should have been here for the EoFF elections last month. I made a very random party. :D

But seriously, you have to pay quite a considerable fee to stand for Parliament, and it'll be money wasted. You won't get anymore than 500 votes in any given constituency, and considering that the constituencies are 70,000 people in size, I don't think 500 will be enough to get in. :)

[Social Moon Firesky]

Meh. It's always worth trying. Anyways, by refugee, I mean actual victims of war. And multi-culturalism is a good thing, because if we didin't have a mixed racial community, we'd be branded as racists...I think I got that wrong somewhere...If the Tories get into power, how many people are gonna be shipped out of Britain because they don't have a British nationality? I will end up separated from my family, because I wasn't born in Britain. Most of my friends will be deported because they're not totally British. Is it just me, or have the Conservatives become more and more weird?

[boris no no]

Haha, you should have been here for the EoFF elections last month. I made a very random party. :D

nay! mine was better! :p :p :p pink beats you anyday!
*still bitter about not winning*
i couldn't be an MP because whatever decision you make someone will think that it's a bad idea. too much stress!

[Social Moon Firesky]

I always try to reason with people, but sometimes you just have to reason with yourself instead, and ignore the people around you. Wow. I believe I may have just said something noble. *Enshrines this thread* It is now holy.:D

[Skogs]

If I were to vote, I would be quite torn. A tactical vote would be to vote for Labour. They're not as good as they used to be, but let's face it, anything's better that the Conservatives.

The Lib Dems would be my first choice, but I'd be afraid they'd split the non-die-hard-Tory vote right down the middle and the Tories would sneak in.

But I'm not British so it doesn't really matter anyway.

[Social Moon Firesky]

I'd like my parents to vote Lib Dem, but they're die-hard New Labour fans, even though they think Tony Blair's an arse. I would hate for the Conservatives to get into power, 'cos it would mean I would have to leave the country, as I no longer have a British nationality, even though both my parents are Scottish.

[gokufusionss1]

How is that possible?

[Social Moon Firesky]

I was born in Sweden, and when I'm 18, I will lose my British nationality unless I marry a British person, which frankly, ain't gonna happen. It's really confusing, and I don't understand it. I'll ask my parents, and then I'll post up what they said.

[Resha]

Multi-culti is good, IMO. It gives you a nice tourism advert slogan like "Malaaaaysia Truly Asiaaaaa :sing:". Yeah. What is Tony Blair? Conservative or Lib. Dem? I think he's Lib. Dem. Is he?!?! Oh, and thanks for the help nono! :<3: It did help.

[boris no no]

bless! Blairs new labour. ;)

thats so confusing! my parents do that too! why vote for a party with a leader you don't think is good???it's silly :rolleyes2

[Resha]

bless! Blairs new labour. ;)

Haha. Miaow. Almost. I wonder if Blair will win the upcomign elections. It seems that he won't, but then, everyone though George Bush wouldn't win either, so stuffs is unpredictable. :greenie:

[Skogs]

Tony Blair could guarantee a Labour election win by stepping down in favour of Gordon Brown.

[Social Moon Firesky]

Wooooo! Gordon Brown rules! He's Scottish, like moi!

[Resha]

Scottish accent = :<3:. Yesh. If Gordon Brown has a Scottish accent, I say aye. :p

[Social Moon Firesky]

Ya, he does. Gordon Brown is WIKID!!!

I doubt that if you have direct british ancestry you qualify for being a subject, i myself was born in germany.

[Social Moon Firesky]

I have direct British ancestry, but the law decrees something about emigrating back into the country and having a British birth certificate, and I don't. Mine is Swedish, and my parents had to leave Sweden because of gov't turmoil, so they emigrated back to Britain. It's really difficult to explain...
