    not so sure about that

    They are all the same
    At present it is a Labour Mayor that has been arrested for Graft so my vote will be to whoever that will hurt that bunch the most.

    The only thing that matters is that one go out and do vote and voting for the opposition no matter what that may be is the only way to say: I am not happy whit the service you provided so far.

    This is the only way to make politics irrelevant as it should be
    The welfare of the population should be a matter of common sense and science.

    It is the same principle any one apply when choosing for example a broad band or energy provider
    You look for the one that is cheaper or that give's you better service
    And once the cheap introductory rate end you tell them that you are going to somebody else because they are cheaper!
    Most probably you get a discount

    Labour? Tory? It's just swapping one bunch of dodgy, self-interested scumbags for another. They don't really run the country anyway, the BIG money does!

    Largely true only Labour has the whole woke thing going on which the Tories don't, and I would never vote for that, or for Socialism.

    If it wasn't for that I would go back to not voting at all, which was my position for many years. Where I live we have gone in 20 years from a very safe Labour seat to a marginal, currently with a Tory in place on a tiny majority. So my vote can make a difference now, which it couldn't before.

    Agree 100%

    Voting for what ever opposition send the message that you are not happy. no voting send no message.

    Even voting for same one wearing a colander on his head is betterer IMO

    Found this, I’ve copied a section that I think is relevant.

    https://jrnyquist.blog/2019/09/11/th...l-chi-haotian/

    Mikhail Sergeevich Gorbachev Foundation, funded by the United States, gathered 500 of the world’s most important statesmen, economic leaders and scientists, including George W. Bush (he was not the U.S. president at the time), the Baroness Thatcher, Tony Blair, Zbigniew Brzezinski, as well as George Soros, Bill Gates, futurist John Naisbitt, etc., all of the world’s most popular characters, in the San Francisco Fairmont hotel for a high-level roundtable conference, discussing problems about globalization and how to guide humanity to move forward into the 21st century. According to what He Xin had in hand, the outstanding people of the world in attendance thought that in the 21st century a mere 20 percent of the world’s population will be sufficient to maintain the world’s economy and prosperity, the other 80 percent or 4/5ths of the world’s population will be human garbage unable to produce new values. The people in attendance thought that this excess 80 percent population would be a trash population and “high-tech” means should be used to eliminate them gradually.

    The difference for me is that the labour party isn't led by an anti-Scottish bigot, who really only cares about London, plus I abhor staunchly right-wing capitalist values, which the Tories are all about. That's why I voted Labour at the last election, in a failed attempt to keep BJ-boy out, even though I'm not a staunch socialist either.

    If anything, my values lean more towards the Liberals, but have always considered it as a wasted vote, as they're unlikely to get in. Therefore the voting process for me, for the time being, is about trying to keep out the greater of two evils!

    Hi Marco,

    Thanks, better now warmer weather is here thanks, hope you and yours are well too?

    Been busy fitting 4 oak doors upstairs, 3 done. Fitted new front gate, have new fence to fit. My sports car has questionable readings on two gauges, it’s either sensors or gauges have dash out to fault find.

    Oh, I forgot, dislocated small toe which is painful. NHS GP’s won’t even refer me.....due to CV19. Hospitals near me are empty but for them a great excuse.

    Gary

    Ps Love the T shirt.

    Good to hear you're well, mate. Yup, we're both fine

    What's your sports car - sounds interesting? Hope you manage to fix the issues concerned. Yup, best to keep busy and your mind focused as much on normal things as possible, in these crazy times

    Glad you like the t-shirt, lol... We'll all be wearing them come the revolution!
