He. And I'm talking about the DPRK obviously.

DPRK? Are you sure you've got that right? Because I was certain it was:

Not you, Rosa.

'Well I for one tolerate the pact with Labour. The important thing is for people to bear in mind is that the electoral pact will only survive if the Liberals remain the dominant force within it - yes, let's give Labour a free run at some seats but let's not treat them as equals in terms of seats when they manifestly are a minor party these days.

So, Hello to the Lib-Lab Pact then?

Too bad the freedom alliance assf**ked them and let them reunite with Korea.

Not you, Rosa.

May make me go away from the Liberal party.

 

[LordTempest]

May make me go away from the Liberal party.

Ironically, it may make me gravitate towards the Liberal Party. You could always vote for the new and improved Free-Market Conservative Party though.

I must agree.

I'll have to weight the economic policies, social policies and foreign policies up to each other. But if the liberals continues for the struggle of feminism I will most likely vote for them again. I simply can't be st the sidelines and watching the liberalization of the women slip away. But again I am afraid of turning UK into a socialist state.

I must agree.

You want me to not vote for the Liberal party?

Well this begs the question: would you prefer to live in a socialist feminist state or a free market "paternalistic" one?

I doubt you'll have to worry about that.

Certainly not, I want to see the tories lose as many votes as possible.

Patriarchal*. There is no reason a "feminist state" (whatever that is) couldn't be paternalistic.

One would think it would be more maternalistic than paternalistic? :huh:

That is my dilemma Social freedom and economical restrictions, or social oppression and economical freedom? What do I want to go down in history as? :s

I doubt you'll have to worry about that.

Well, concidering the Liberal party have a major social democratic faction and the labour party are social democratic, and the goal of social democracy is to establish democratic socialism (which is essentially non-stalinist socialism/communism), which is also the other major ideology in Labour party, I am concerned that they will try to transform UK into a socialist state. Since that is the aim for their ideologies. And the Labour party will get many more seats in parliament and cabinet now as they enter an alliance with the Liberal party. This may force the Liberals to take further steps into transforming UK into a socialist state and economy. Something I truly hope won't happen. If the Liberal party could be independent from the socialists and stand ln the grounds of social liberalism and radical centrism they would be much more appealing.

So what did you agree on?

Patriarchal*. There is no reason a "feminist state" (whatever that is) couldn't be paternalistic.

That may be true.

In truth I do not know...

If Labour is radical enough in there platform this election and the commies still hold no hope of getting seats, I shall consider voting Labour especially if its Labour or eurocoms who are basically labour.

 

[Dofon]

Well. Mac got more done than was expected. I was expecting him to twiddle his thumbs while Kuwait was ransacked, argue with the liberals about whether we should deploy troops to the Commonwealth allies, get sick and resign to elections XD Despite the Ba'athists disappointingly remaining in power, I can't even say he did a bad job. In view of the terrible division in Parliament, I can see why he's "Super" Mac
We're shaping up for an enormous Left-Right slugfest, so terribly exciting!
(With Lib-Lab in an electoral pact, does this mean with some measure of success they'll unite? We'd be down to 3 relatively powerful parties at that point; one each for radical thought on both extreme ends, and one for liberal centrism. Assuming no party springs to the right of Conservative; unlikely, i'd think)

 

[Zzzzz...]

Pah! We stopped at Kuwait! We should have driven those dang Commie Iraqis down and replace it with a free, civilised, pro-British, and repressive absolute monarchy!

 

[atomicsoda]

Just for the record, I can't speak for all CPGB voters, but I personally don't care for "the Left". I want the communists, and the communists only, to have the greatest possible role in governance, and thus I will only ever vote for a communist party, never the "lesser evil" of the capitalist duopoly. That's pretty much what my real life stance would be as well if there were a worthwhile communist party in my country. As far as I know, I'm not the only one who thinks like this.

Thank you in real life for voting that way and weakening the socialist vote. Us capitalists appreciate it. Please continue and tell all your comrades to do likewise.

You had me until those last three words

 

[Dadarian]

I know exactly the solution to all of our problems. Take all of our unwanted Irishmen, Welshmen and Liverpoolers and pressgang them into the Navy in which they rule the waves.

Golden Age of Piracy; 1960s here we come, or at least the same accents.
