[QUOTE="Triniquint, post: 125390"] I understand the reasons, and the first past the post method, and like Ken Livingstone once remarked (in fact he wrote a book with the same ***le), "If Voting Changed Anything, They'd Abolish It". But there comes a point where the pressure applied by the electorate forces change, be it an early election, or a change of government (Regime Change?). Insofar as voting BNP is concerned, it as far from my approach as voting the Raving Monster Loony Party. Whether the outcome of a BNP majority would result in the sanction/blockade scenario remains to be seen. However, I must confess to thinking about UKIP these days. People are getting pretty fed up these days, and I don't especially associate with any particular type of person such as would be expected if I played golf, and frequented the golf club; or played darts and frequented the local Working Men's Club. My friends and acquaintances are from all walks of life, but virtually all of them are saying the same thing - this is the common thread, regardless of one's position. [/QUOTE]
