    I'm not trying to disprove what @dave4 said, what he said was perfectly true. The majority of people did not vote for the current shower of cunts.

    But that's true of every (I think, feel free to point me at a year where it wasn't) previously elected Government of this country.

    So it makes that particular point pointless because it will probably always be true of any Government whilst this country fails to engage people enough to get turnout up significantly.

    Also, the problem with the phrasing of "the majority of people did not vote for the current shower of cunts" is that it leads people to think that the pseudo-converse statement "the majority of people voted for anyone other than the current shower of cunts" would be true, which it isn't as backed up by the stat I posted.

  • True, but context important... I was replying to a post which suggested that the majority had voted for the govt.

  • Fair enough, I'd read the "majority" in Dammit's post to refer to the majority of elected representatives (i.e. the Tories being wrong) not the voters (that elected the representatives of all parties).
