Quote: The Angry Pirate "Update on the Sun's view of the election...

Labour are 'depressed' and virtually out of the race....Might has well give up.

The Liberal Democrats are fading after a fluke weekend...Clegg soon to be exposed as a 1-debate wonder once Mr Cameron gets to work on him.

The Tories are nailed on for victory...They are steam-rollering towards an easy victory and Mr Cameron is a political genius who represents all sides of UK society.


Now, I realise there is an obvious answer to this, but why are the Sun peddling such stuff, when all 'neutral' election news that I read or hear of is absolutely nothing like this?? ...
I used to buy the The Sun every day at work but since the election has been called,i have stoped buying.It is becoming a embrassment to read with its one sided views.The Daily Mirror is getting just as bad with its anti tory stance,i wouldnt buy the Dailt Mail because it is the worst paper i have every read,With its opinonated veiws and only giving one side to the story.I recently bought the Express which i thought was a ok read.

Something i noticed on the 1st day the planes didn't fly and the day after the tv debate kicked off.

The Nationals front pages.
All the left leaning papers went with how Clegg did very well and the right leaning papers went with the Volcano.

Interesting eusa_think.gif

And to no surprise. Cameron and Brown were murdered in the debate. The papers know full well that if people vote Lib Dem instead of Conservative, because of the majority and so many "safe seats" Labour will get back in.

My hope is that Nick Clegg is not a one-debate wonder, people vote Lib Dem on May 6 and close the gap on the Conservatives in Parliament. If Cameron gets into No. 10 then I'm on the first plane (ferry or train) out of here.

If either Cameron or Brown had stood there with one of their hands in their pocket like Clegg did in the TV debate, they'd have been lambasted by the press.

Clegg is a lightweight, the Lib Dem manifesto is, in places, ludicrously naive, and I really can't see what all the fuss is about. He is 8/1 to be the next PM in some books icon_rolleyes.gif

If your are really honest you can not see beyond Labour winning a 4th Term.

Good stuff. Cameron did well turning the attention onto the sub class and dole buldgers/bogus work shy invalidity benefit scroungers. Time for change icon_wink.gif

I'm not even bothering voting in Warrington North as my vote will count very little against the huge tide of Labour votes from the aforementioned.

Personally I'd change the voting system so that you vote twice at the same time.
One vote goes to the national, one for the local. Change the whole system, what we have at the moment is ridiculous.

Seat are then based on a percentage of the vote not on if you win a constituency.
Councils just a straight vote for the winner.

Quote: The All New Chester Wire "Other polls have it closer. See what happens after Thursday.'"



I am expecting that Clegg has had his day in the sun and the prospect of a big Lib Dem vote resulting in a Labour controlled balanced parliament will put people off voting yellow. (I think that is the Tories stongest argument). We all know we are tired of Labour, they stink now, and they are due to be in the wilderness for a bit when Andy Burnham or a Milliband will take the reins and become "the future" again, offering "change".

A wise old man told me that Labour always foobar up the economy. Things never change, despite the reasons.

That's sort of the German system, although you have to win 5% of the national vote to get a share of seats. You can also win a constituency direct. Then it gets complicated with Uberhangsmandaten.
