If Greg Dyke thinks it can work, that's good enough for me!

Si j'avais beaucoup de l'argent, je pourrais me depayser en Australie. Mais, je n'ai pas ca. C'est la vie... sad

I understand why you might want to, but still. It's better to simply vote the Tories in.  

[Nebelstern]

I want PR. Simple as that; it is so that in the future I may be able to sweep to fascist power. Mwahahah.
Seriously, I would like to see a fairer represented parliament. wink  

[Invictus_88]

Not I. It would be more polarised, deviod of any ability to pass legislation, you would have weak governments and extremist parties getting too much of a say in the legislature.

Well, to be quite honest, I'm not inclined to trust a party who are claiming they will cut taxes and put more money into public spending.
(I'm referring to the Tories, of course)
EDIT: And that has an immigration policy with a huge hole in it.

Exactly the point I was about to make.

Probably. He has a lack of liberalistic views. Ironic how he would be voting to the right when he supports communism. 3nodding  

[Zoutout]

It's not a bad thing to favour communism, but it is incredibly optimistically naive to actually believe it will work any time soon.

Too bad then that your respective points are incorrect and unrefined.

The Tories will cut income tax rates, however because of the growth of the economy the actual amount to tax will be more. Thus a Tory governemnt will have more money to spend that the Labour one does now, but you will still have more money to spend than you do now. Coupled with efforts to cut such waste as we witness with the current lot, the future with Howard as PM seems altogether brighter.

But there's still potentially less money in public spending.
Anyway, how about the immigration point?

Whoops, double post, sorry. sweatdrop
EDIT: Oo thought of an excuse for a double post. How about that mad scheme of subsidising poeple on the NHS to go private? It seems to be rewarding people who can afford to pay half of the fee by allowing them to queue-jump, and doing nothing for the least wealthy. If this is going to have to be done (when in fact it seems to me that simply improving the NHS would be a far better plan);surely it would "give people who've paid their taxes a fairer deal" to simply entirely subsidise everyone with below a certain income and make anyone with more than that pay the entire fee? Or have the percentage of the subsidy made aa function of the person's income?
