    Well its getting closer, the ballot papers have just arrived and Caroline's about to register a postal vote. I was surprised the amount of candidates that are standing that don't live here.

    About three companies pulled out of it the following day as well, feeling it would affect their buisness being linked to it - Ladbrokes being one, saying they thought it was just about supporting corporation tax cuts.

    I won't go past the Conservative Swiss Tony banners until Friday on my way back from London onwards towards the footy. Suddenly reminded me of an Atilla - Barnstormer gig in Cambridge once after the footy where his band nicked one of these huge boards from outside a big house, and threw it into...

    Will they all drive down in their 4x4's and give it large around my way, if Pavillion goes blue in May

    Who are the Pavilion Tories, the only conservative banner or poster for a mile or so around my flat in central Brighton is by the Bear Pub for Simon Kirby in Kemptown I was so excited to see it and just wonder if its his Mum's fat. Its 1-1 at HT v the Communist Party

    Well one thing you can't blame them for is trying to change the First past the post system to a tepid AV system - big shame the vote was a poor turn out and people didn't vote for change

    Its hopefully heading for a world where we are no longer on a two party locked in system - both trying to be centrist to get power - I believe the tories are worse due to their agenda is power for the superrich once they are in

    Under Osbourne and coalition public debt will have risen by 50% in just five years, I believe this means that he would have increased it more than every previous Labour government combined. Not only has George Osborne completely failed to eradicate the budget deficit as he claimed he would...

    Totally agree with parties being funded centrally, however the old party networks have no desire to change the current system as both government and opposition are funded centrally already to cover their costs, so any minor parties are already at a disadvantage. Cameron like all the others who...

    Er they are a party founded by the unions for their members, to counter the money of big business - I really never understand the argument that Unions cannot give donations where as very wealthy business and individuals can give very big donations for access to a party that represents their...

    Yes but we have a very good Green MP who stands up for her great values (who has nothing/v little to do with recycling quotas or council tax in our town) and you have a Tory MP always will have, and will never have a choice to change that

    Yes, very different to my experience, I have only been in Aberdeen getting a boat out to the islands and was treated very well. I work mainly in Dunfmline, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Livingstone. I can say amongst the 100's of people I work with, I have never had even mild humour aimed at my English...

    This itv poll (can't see how many people surveyed) like the referendum question its a pick from two of the following quiz - as I said before my experience of Scotland is not one of people being against the English as the referendum demonstrated with over 55% voting to remain part of the UK.

    I am sure somewhere on here yesterday was saying that Clegg would hang onto his safe seat - the latest Ashcroft polls today are hinting their mat be a record breaking swing in Hallam - He had 53% of the vote on the last election

    Working there a lot, I know thats not the case (bar some pockets in Glasgow), I saw a piece the other day saying that most SNP voters don't want independence but want nothing to do with an elitist and old school Westminster. Its a very Anti Tory vote as well.

    Thats a great book, very funny too - The bookmakers Coral have released their odds on who they think will win Thursday’s leaders’ debate (with winning defined as coming top in the YouGov poll). Nigel Farage is the favourite. Here are the full odds: 7-4 Nigel Farage, 11-4 Ed Miliband, 7-2...
