Comments...

  • "Democracy, my foot! At all levels the process has become merely an exercise whereby the electorate are asked to give spurious validity to the predetermined decisions and policies of politicians, without the electorate being told what these are. As the trough-feeders are unlikely to vote themselves out of swill, I fear that a revolution is the only answer in the UK."

  • "Could someone please tell me 1. the number of votes by which the BNP won in each of their "victories" and 2. the number of spoilt ballots in these two consituencies? With thanks."

  • "The Barclay Brothers are trying to stage a coup, much like they tried late last year on the isalnd of Sark, which they wish to own due to it's independence from Europe and the UK. THeir plan has been to boost the populatiry of the BNP and UKIP so that the country splits with Europe, and the fonancial regulation that comes with it. The whole country is being put on the verge of revolution simply to make these two ageing gargoyles some more money. Who else thinks they should be shot?"
