  • Don't get me wrong - the current government has gone law crazy and has stripped many civil liberties. I just don't think the current opposition wouldn't have done them themselves (and has done by voting in favour).

    possibly, but the current opposition has stood up to 90 days, has stood up to expansion by stealth of the DNA database as well as other things like the use of RIPA and giving powers of surveillance (which were intended for serious law enforcement) to councils. I know that this is easier in opposition but I just think this Government has gone too far too often which is why I won't vote for them.

    On top of that they have f*cked the public finances so we will be paying shedloads of tax to pay interest as opposed to spending it on front line services. Taxes will probably have to rise to pay off the debt whilst at the same time we will be expecting public services to be cut. Essentially the country has been moved to a position where we will be paying more for lessin the coming years imho.
