UK People - who is going to win the ELECTION?
 

As an expat, I'm a little out of touch. I get the impression from mates back in England though that Brown is going to be ousted. Correct?

I voted.

I didn't realise France was now included in the UK jurisdiction :)

David Cameron I guess.

I wouldn't be surprised if Labour deliberately threw their campaign, knowing that the £260bn deficit was going to make whoever is in power next, very unpopular as they're forced to up taxes in a big way.

Cameron will most likely win and I hope he does, nick clegg from the Lib Dems does seem to be winning a few people over though, brown is a joke

no mention of tax rises so far, instead they want to cut it from public services, health and so on... but as yet they can only predict up to 25% of that repayment so tax increases are most likely inevitable (neither party will admit where the repayment is coming from in full... sneaky gits), either way it's a huge mountain to climb.

Who ever wins is going to be hated for a long time afterwards. Like Thatcher is still to this day. Clearing Browns mess is going to be an awesome task.

DC10, hopefully not too many well waste votes on lib dems and give tories a decent majority.

I hope Brown loses since he's a fuckin LOSER but there's no hope either way.. They are all bought and paid for..

My sister is a very high up economist with the civil service over there, has meetings with him occasionally. She told me most of his staffers hate him. Apparently he's a bully and a bit of an asshole.

I highly doubt he gives much of a toss about winning or losing at this stage.

Hung government - Tory + Libs

You guys really think cameron will win?

I think it will be
Brown
Clegg
Cameron

the system is really well done and is about the same in every country.
4 years ago everybody loved Brown. Today he is a "joke"
So we take him off, and we place a newer face.
Great we have change!
Change we can believe in!

The only problem is that the system itself will not change, we simply change the actors of the movie broadcasted everyday on TV...

Whoever wins the UK election does not matter, the actions large banks, multinational companies and institutions need to take will be taken, regardless of who is elected

I think its shameful the way Gordon Brown has been hung out to dry in a lot of ways. No he isn't suave and doesn't have all the answers, but he is the right man to lead the country out of these bad times. He takes his screw ups on the chin and moves on.

David Cameron is an arsehole of a man, and Nick Clegg... the less said about him the better. I'm voting Labour.

quoted for truth

:thumbsup

So it will be a landslide according to the consensus of the GFY thinktank.

BoardiesBitch - I agree. Plus whoever is in power still has the same Civil Service doing the same donkey work, the UK will still be in the US' pocket. Doesn't really matter who's at the helm.

The new face feekgood factor isn't going to last long this time around.

Yep my thoughts exactly :thumbsup

But if i am honest i don't think Cameron is up to it the way the country is at the moment and i think Clegg's proposals are unrealistic because he did not think he would ever stand a chance of getting in, In this instance it maybe a case of better the devil you know and stick with Brown but i don't think that will happen

Nick Clegg.

don't care. They are all in it for themselves

Shameful in what way ? He brings most of it on himself. His failure over the years to address many key issues in Britain sums up him and his party. Their way of dealing with things is by simply taxing the hard working British even more, and giving the people who don't work and the huge number of immigrants who arrive here on a daily basis a free ride.

That's why most the immigrants pass by most of Europe to get here.

What amazes me most about this election campaign is that all the major parties are hiding away from these issues. They go on about the economy, but don't they realise that ways of helping the economy is to close the gates at our borders, and get the ones who are here working, instead of bleeding us all dry.

I still don't know who i'm voting. I might not even bother. After the recent scandal, why do any of them deserve anyone's vote ??

It's bloody compulsory in Australia to vote, or you get fined. Assholes!

I thought everything you posted had a set of nice tits added for style?

Britain would be in the same state as Greece within 2 years if he got the keys to number 10...

Vote for that dutch guy ;)

Are we talking about the same Gordon Brown here? The one that ruined pension funds in the UK and turned our pensions from the best in Europe into the worst with final salary scheme being closed and businesses left with massive black holes in their pension schemes? The same Gordon Brown who announced to the markets he was selling off Britain's gold reserves, thus depressing the market, and then did so meaning we got almost the lowest price possible for it? The Gordon Brown who wants to increase the tax on employers' wage bills, thus increasing the government's own wage bill too, at a time when we need employers to create more jobs not less?

That Gordon Brown?

Or is there another one somewhere that actually has a clue? Must be, I can't believe anyone who professes to be running any kind of business that thinks the one we've got now deserves another day in office.

who give a shit

Glad you wrote all that, saves me having to write it.

Gordon Brown was Chancellor for 10 years before becoming PM and I can't understand the people who seem to think he has been handed someone elses mess to sort out.

And the winner is?

BNP! :1orglaugh

My favorite thing to watch on american tv is C-span when they have the house of commons.. I love watching that. I wish american politician would be subejcted to that kind of treatment.

The treatment in the House of Commons makes Judge Judy look like Mary Poppins.

A Guardian/ICM poll shows the Conservatives with an eight-point lead over Labour, just short of what they need for an overall majority. The survey put the Conservatives on 36%, Labour on 28% and the Liberal Democrats on 26%.

Cameron looks a real shifty character.

87.50% I know the results, just see gfy

Exit poll shows Con 305, Lab 255, LD 61

Conservatives win, so is that mean Brits might say bye bye to some of their freedoms or British conservatives have no actual meaning?

Is Cameron from the right-wing ultra conservative party ?

.

Its the same party that Thatcher lead, it has 300 year old roots (the Liberal party roots are even older) and is a near-right party, in truth though, the Labour party came pretty close to being that itself in recent years so i doubt that there will be any major changes that'll effect the people too much at base level.

Is Cameron like our Republicans, and Brown is like our Democrats?

No, that's Nick Griffin who did not win a seat.

Looks like we are in hung parliament territory...:Oh crap

Very roughly, yes.

Labour have done well considering it was for a fourth term, after two wars and the biggest global recession for decades. Oh and the fact 90% of the press is right wing, or owned by Murdoch :thumbsup

The Bilderburg Group

Watch that cunt Brown try to cling to power....

Vote split - all the areas with large public sector and high welfare = Labour

all the areas with people who actually earn their money = conservative

Fucking Scotland keeping Labour with chance of power... and vote to shit on the english.. when they already have their own shitty parliment which we pick up the tab for..

You can thank Thatcher for that.

People in Scotland simply don't trust, and will never trust a Tory government. I actually prefer Cameron to Gordon Brown, yet i still couldn't find myself voting Conservative.

Why would people in Scotland vote for something which simply doesn't have any interest in Scotland's favour? Simple. They wouldn't, and they didn't...

I'm going to line my JCB diggers up along Hadrians Wall...

Not only do you lot sponge of us.. but for some reason we have to put up with Scottish Football on the news.. theres only so much we can take!
