    A new manager for Sunderland, and soon a new party in power for the country; things are looking up. I just hope that some of the safe Tory seats round here (Bromsgrove) can fall. Stratford and West Worcestershire going to the Liberals, and the rest of the Worcestershire seats going to Labour would be my hope for today.

    I'm exaggerating, but it's sort of like a catch 22 situation, having a choice between Hitler & Putin 'cos neither (like in America) are fit for any purpose other than their own fame/notoriety :emoticon-0112-wonde

    I can't imagine any sane person wanting to be associated with either of them :emoticon-0145-shake

    I don't either. At least there will be a clear sense of integrity no matter if times get tough.

    Time to vote out the current mob of incompetent grifters.

    Don’t know enough about the main political parties in the UK anymore or what they stand for.
    There were many reasons I decided to move myself and my family to the other side of the world. One of those reasons was what I perceived as the decline of the UK as a whole. Not that Australia is a shining beacon in that respect either, but it’s certainly no worse and the weather is nicer.
    Politicians, especially those in positions of power within the halls of Westminster and in Parliament House in Canberra in my opinion anyway, have an annoying habit of being self-serving and to be honest I can’t see the next government either here or the UK being any different.
    I can always live in hope though!

    As Prehab26 and I have already said, it's Kiers integrity that gives me the confidence, and faith in Labour

    Really hope you are right mate, fingers crossed.

    He promised a house building bonanza on day 1, so unless he peesonally builds a thousand new houses by 5pm tomorrow he is useless <laugh><laugh>

    In all seriousness I will raise a glass to the end of the current govt tonight. I will reserve judgement on the new lot though I am afraid and hoping my fears about policy and manifesto are proven to be wrong.

    Still have had no leaflets , seen no posters in windows , and certainly no knock at door so still have zero knowledge of any of the candidates.
    My choice will be by writing numbers 1-7 on pieces of paper , and drawing one out , casting a vote as I believe you should , or don’t complain afterwards. Whoever wins , I shall be on their case to see that they work for the constituency , not themselves.

    Why not mate. I respect your belief in Labour wholeheartedly and it is certainly beyond time the country turned the page.
