While i hate the taxation scheme that was taken from Tories, I have to vote Liberal after all. I wish for flat tax, more social reforms and i find the talk about "illegitimate left" hypocritic without damnation of "illegitimate Rigrt", but I despise current Labour and the talk of some of the Socialist voters here conviced me that we have to prevent them from winning.
(Whare are Coalition liberals when you really need them?)
(And I seriously doubt that current Labour is "secularized")

I do have to admit, the NCP isn't blameless. The certainly stoked the flames of revolution.
You mean the tax that half the nation doesn't even actually pay, rich and poor alike?
Besides, your censorship policies certainly didn't/doesn't help very much.
I'm changing the closing date for voting from midday on Saturday to 9 AM (or whenever I wake up) as I won't be able to close the vote at the time stated.
ps Andrezej I had the polls right. Currently:
Libs: 21
Labs: 12
Socs: 12
NCP: 6
and the Irish:
IPP: 80
Unionists: 20
Come on IPP!
They will do until the Dual Monarchy Sinn Fein appears.
OMG. Right bloc currently looking to win by 3 seats.
Whatever happens, the new government is going to be weak as hell.
EDIT: Situation flopped whilst posting.
2 seats the other way.
Most exciting election finale this AAR has ever seen.

Well this is wonderful. We either get an NPC-Liberal coalition (which really doesn't make a whole lot of sense, considering the liberals breaking from the previous coalition is what made this election necessary in the first place) or a Labour-Socialist coalition.
Either way, the liberty of this country is doomed.

It was pretty obvious from an early stage that only two coalitions were possible.
Labour
I just hope that there shall be a coalision between Labour and Liberals!!!!!!

Or, you know, just plain ol' no government. The result of the election comes in, the parties look at each other, start bickering, months pass without any progress while riots break out across the country... It'd be a good time to vote Socialist or Labour, no?
I wonder how close it would be if we eliminated some of the tactical voting. I'm not sure how that'd be satisfactorily achieved.
I think most Liberal and Labour voters would prefer a centrist alliance over a coalition with their respective right-wing or left-wing extremists. That looks like the best way to preserve the peace, make some reform to calm the tensions while protecting our democracy and way of life. A coalition containing an extremist party would likely cause a civil war since it would cause even worse polarization and mistrust in society.
Well, considering that the Liberals just broke from the coalition with NCP, I would hardly call that "pretty obvious".
Ya, that's what I was saying. In all honesty, I don't see how a Labour-Liberal coalition is such an impossibility. Liberals breaking from the coalition was what caused the need for an election, and Labour's (supposedly) the more moderate lefty party and (from what I understand, at least), doesn't quite like the athiestic, radical Socialists. Really, in my opinion the only thing really stopping a coalition between the two moderate parties would be how the majority of the liberals are rather non-reformist, but even then when the stability of the Republic is at stake, I'd think they'd be willing to make concessions.
Frankly to me, it looks like it'd either be Liberal-Labour, Labour-Socialist-IPP, or no government. But then again Attack's the author, so I suppose he can do whatever he want.
I agree. It should be pretty clear to Gladstone that we cannot simply continue and blindly follow our ideology when we know the threat that's hanging over us, when we have seen what has happened all over Europe. There is only one possible coalition and that is Liberal-Labour.
But then, otoh, a civil war would make for interesting reading. So either way is good (vote Liberal)
