Still no examples of lies though. Unless you mean Blair. I'm sorry Roger but I just can't take any more of your using the word "scotch" to describe the folks north of the border. The people are Scottish or Scots. You use "scotch" to describe their food and drink like scotch pancakes. Mind you, I am the man who breezed into a cafe in Fort William and asked for a full english breakfast. First and only time I've heard the word "sassenach" used in anger. I quoted Boris Johnson using his very words. You must be the only person in the UK, besides his girlfriend I suppose, to believe what he says...

The UK electorate vote for a local MP to represent them in Parliament. The parties are significant for sure but you vote for an individual not a party. It is a sign of the broken FPTP system that people vote tactically and on parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see your point about tactical voting but don't see that as being a particularly bad thing but when it comes to party politics I am absolutely convinced that party politics is infinitely better than no party politics.
