It's quite telling that your two main article sources are the Mail, which practically invented the 'Broken Britain' slogan, and the Express, which is little better. Just to highlight this (and because it particularly irked me); a quote from the Express article quoted above:The C* t's shiny new Equality department, as well as wanting scout groups to take girls, would also like schoolgirls to be banned from wearing skirts - in case ladyboys get offended:

4 people are currently undergoing criminal investigations. The recession hit worldwide, and equally as hard in Conservative America (if not harder) - do you really believe that somone else as PM could have prevented it in the UK?Brown also promised to sort out the expenses fiasco despite being embroiled in it himself, plus the recession wasn't 'insured' against by good investment during the boom years. Indeed, Brown taxed and spent like nobody's business and helped export jobs, vatloads of gold bullion and state assets overseas.

Only under British-hating Labour. A typical anti-patriot is that bloke from the UAF. At one point in his whinge he describes how the sight of our national flag flying in London sickens him:
YouTube- Martin Smith of the UAF hates the Union Jack
It's funny how people like that complain about alleged British military oppressions represented by the Union Flag, yet not raise a single complaint about Palestinian flags being banded about at seething riots outside Israeli embassies. Nor do they over-complain about the 'misunderstood' IRA. No smelling salts under the noses of Leftist turdpipes then, as Livingstone can confirm!
Actually, I'd guess it's because we're coming up to a GE here in the UK, so everyone with the appropriate frame of mind is gearing up their partisan talking points.I guess you raise it now just so you can call people names but pretend it's someone else's opinion.

Personally, I'm of the opinion that a hung parliment is on the way. I'd quite like that, tbh.
If there is a coalition government then at least those decisions will have to be reached through compromise and concensus.
No, a hung parliament would be best. It's just a shame a hung parliament couldn't be taken literally.
The advantage of a hung parliament is that it reduces partisanship as an effective weapon. Too many times, the Tories have opposed a policy based largely on the fact that it came from a Labour mouth, or vice versa - a hung parliament gives a lot more power to the (hopefully non-partisan) people from neither party.And what would be the nature of the consensus? And what would the criteria be for effective compromise? I fear more of the same kind of bungling and incompetence we've become sadly used to over the years, with politicians less willing to shoulder responsibility for shambles.
