I vote labour because i'm an unemployed drug addict, though if I ran a business or was employed in a job with over £50k a year salary i'd probably vote tory, and if I was more clear headed and gave a shit about the environment enough i'd probably vote Green, the Lib dem's are irreverent and If I smoked crack every day and spent my evenings peeping through my curtains i'd probably vote UKIP. Think i'll go with Labour.

I don't know It'd probably make me ultra possibly right wing libertarian (do we have any libertarian parties in the UK? Pirate party?) because the government is both taxing my income and persecuting my drug habit. (hypothetical)

Labour has apparently always been for the workers so why unemployed? I got a few jobs under Labour. A lot of their plans helped me a lot like working tax credit, back to work bonus of £200, 52-104 linking rules, access to work, sure trust. Under Labour I was less afraid to seek employment than under Tory who did nothing but raise my anxiety levels to the point I stopped watching the news amongst other things. I, personally, would be devastated if Tories gort in again. I want a party who are going to help disabled people seek employment with understanding of the anxiety n low self-esteem that one has after being on benefits n experiencing bad experiences in previous employments ie bullying.

People want to work they're just afraid n the Tories are reinforcing the fear not helping at all.

I can relate to this and i am sure many others can. Fear management ... doesnt motivate/help me. Although i am losing faith in labour.


On the points addressing how one would vote in different lifestyle circumstances...Tbh i would like to think that even if i was swimming in cash e.g. bankers bonuses, that i would hold the same values as i have now (robin hood) but then again who knows what i could turn in to a greedy monster turn with access to that amount of money but anyway that will probably never happen, haha. Im only 23 but if i do become rich i hope that il happily share, the same as il happily share what little i have just now. I am so perfect. Lol. Sorry if i am not speaking sense ...fucking drink.

The Pirate Party is not "Libertarian" -- at least, not in the crazy American, anarcho-capitalist sense. Their issue is copyright reform. If we had transferrable votes, and they were fielding a candidate in my constituency, I would consider voting for them. Unfortunately, our useless first-past-the-post voting system means I have to vote tactically. Any of the Conservatives, Labour or Lib Dems could get in -- they each get roughly 30% of the votes every time. There are also UKIP and Green Party candidates standing. I think UKIP will steal some votes from the Tories; so if the Green party candidate whom I would really like as my MP doesn't really stand a chance of getting elected then I should support the Lib Dems just to keep Labour out.

On the other hand, it could be very interesting if Labour and the Tories were forced to form a coalition .....
 
I've done my voting, what with councils and some thing about raising council tax for mor more Police I just got postal vote forms for the lot.

I've never failed to vote in a general election, those that don't bother because they can't be added, fair enough but there is no protest or statement being made. If you feel so strongly that the system has no value you can register that by submitting a spoiled ballot paper, if many did this it couldnt be ignored.

After listening to many a debate and reading manifestos for the first time ever I didn't vote Labour, they haven't a shred of Socialist values left and nothing they had to say made me think they would change a single thing in real terms, encouraging young people to buy houses WTF ?

Tactical voting is being relied on by the big parties IMO discouraging people from voting for the party that best reflects their genuine views and beliefs on how our country should be run, im not referring to the one policy racists who couldn't run to the shops let alone set this country back on a path to the kind of genuine wealth of integrity it could and should be on.

Whilst I had some reservations about the completness of some of their plans and was dissapointed by some things they have stated but chosen not to enclude in their mannefesto I voted Green Party, based on their manifesto they are the only ones talking any kind of sence ....…IMHO of course

that it is even a remote possibility is indication enough that they are all rotten politicians and britain needs serious political change.

Ceres...I posted a reply to your post about pregabalin withdrawal yesterday and what you could do to elieve it but it vanished then my battery died.

Anyway, I doubt benzos or GABAgenic supplements would help as pregabalin isn't a gabagenic drug itself. If you look at the pregabalin wiki page there is a good passage taken from the prarmacology notes by Pfizer which explains it pretty well. I had copied and pasted it into the original post but have lost it now. Benzos might help with some of the nastier withdrawal symptoms but it doubt it would eleive them. I've been on lyrics for over two years on and off and stopped it a couple of weeks ago after a few months of taking it every day and was shocked at how nasty the wds were.
 
yeah i think im going to resort to using phenibut to stop the gap between scripts, if I can find a uk supplier that looks legit.

The wd's from lyrica reminded me an awful lot of the wds I had after taking AH7291 for two weeks straight. i.e opiate wd

Having a go at snorting the stuff was a terrible idea, I've gone throu half my script in a couple of days.
 
I was driving through Alderley Edge in Cheshire yesterday and passed row upon row of blue flags with 'George Osborne, Conservative' emblazoned on them. Being a political ignoramus, I didn't realise it was part of his bleeding constituency! Still, it makes sense what with the proliferation of rich cunts in that area. I should have really stopped the van and Burned them all down...

SHM you are one of the best trolls i have ever encountered. Look at what you have created!

That's odd Swedge. I don't remember you saying that when I praised your post about the SNP? Or am I only a troll when I disagree?

"My girlfriend is from Zimbabwe" (don't you mean Rhodesia? ;) ) is not an argument against anything I've tried to debate with you.

In fact you haven't addressed anything I've said to you since you said, as if it mattered to you, "I was the only white face in the street".

If skin colour doesn't matter to you, why did you say it? And if it does matter, why does it matter? Don't you believe you can be black and British?

Why, in multicultural 21st century Britain did it matter to you that you were the only white face in a street in a dumping ground in London?

You're a troll when you called me a racist when I am clearly not. Couldn't give a fuck about anything else you've been nit-picking through. My point of being the only white face in the street in London was an observation that things in London (and other parts of the UK) with regards to immigration levels are completely different to anywhere in Scotland where immigration is not at the same levels. But you are right, they all could be born and bred Londoners just speaking in foreign languages to confuse me.

Do you thing the current situation where we have fuck all control on who is coming into the country from the EU is working equally well accross the the UK? I can tell you its not. Some places the public services are creaking, schools, hospitals etc Yet in Scotland we do not have this same issue. Now thats not some smug "we're better than you" post - its just a fucking fact. Keep it going if you like. Keep call me a racist. :p


Anyway back to this thread.

Friday is going to be a very interesting day. Labour in Scotland could have zero MPs! They do themselves no favours. Previously Johan Lamont was the leader and she was second rate and a pretty lousy politician. Amazingly they managed to replace her the someone who is even worse. Jim Murphy and his Deputy Kezia Dugdale is just a horrendous robot.
 
jim murphy is a nonstop comedy act. labour are FUCKED, it is going to be an snp landslide.

You know they all spoke in foreign languages? In London, that place that is famous for people walking down streets and sitting on tubes totally ignoring each other?

You're speaking childish shit now.

Keep it going if you like. Keep call me a racist.

I'm asking you questions, responding to your posts. It's a discussion forum. The clue is in the word discussion. I haven't 'kept' calling you a racist, I think I've given you ample opportunity to challenge me and tell me why I'm wrong about you. You have made the briefest of attempts to defend yourself, preferring instead to retire into butt hurt land.

Schools and hospitals are not failing in the UK because of immigration. Do you really believe the problems the NHS face would be cured if we removed a few hundred thousand people out of a population of 60 million? That's a ridiculous argument. The NHS is failing, and in Scotland too I assure you, just as it is in Wales where I live (and we have few immigrants here) because of a culture of mismanagement and a desire to privatise parts of the service that should be dedicated to all. Fuck all to do with darkies.

Try getting an argument where you know something about what you are saying.

Crossed wires mate, don't worry about it. :)

Anyway, we are now fully stocked up on big posters and SNP bunting. There were even some brown faces at our local SNP gathering this afternoon, and I didn't get the impression that they were left out. Sorry if that makes me a massive racist again, somehow. :p

OMG brown faces! Better get the border controls upgraded. You racist fucker. :D:D:D

You are very good at attributing points to me that I have never made. When did i say "the problems the NHS face would be cured if we removed a few hundred thousand people out of a population of 60 million?" - Yes, that is indeed a ridiculous argument and one I never made at all.

You seem to be missing where I say "in parts of the UK"

In parts of the UK the level of immigration has had negative impact on public services. Do you agree on this? (probably not)
