    The Lib Dems are already going to get into office since a hung Parliament looks likely.

    Yep vote Lib dem to wreck and ruin your country.

    Its like me having a political party going around and claiming "Vote for DemUK and we will ensure each and everyone of you will receive £20k per year for life"

    The Lib Dems can say what they want, but when you look at their policies you know they could and would never work.

    In comparison to another 5 years of Labour screwing up the country or the Tories bringing their own and almost identical policies in?

    Can't we instead do a kind of TV-reality-show type thing where we invite a successful country like Denmark or Sweden or something to come in and govern us for a few months.

    So Lib Dems will save us all?

    Sure they will

    Amnesty for all the illegals in the UK.
    Closer ties to Europe.
    Ending the British pound and joining the Euro.
    Death Tax.

    ........


    The real facts are no matter who governs us we are heading for a 2nd recession with all the cuts that are going to come.

    It all depends on whom best you think will handle the 2nd recession and make it a fairer society for all.

    "The Lib Dems can say what they want - they'll never get into politcs"

    People who are so smug with their Labour / Conservative votes should keep thinking this - that's what will get the Lib Dems in - low turnouts by the complacent, tired, unreactive, unrepresentative big parties. :)

    This time last century the two mwin parties were the Whigs (old Liberals) and Tories - Labour came from nowhere to become a major political party - they probably had all the Liberal and Conservative voters saying "a vote for Labour is a wasted vote - they'll never get in"

    Never say "never" :D

    Well said!

    Someone above said "The real facts are no matter who governs us we are heading for a 2nd recession with all the cuts that are going to come.

    That doesn't describe either the Tories or the Labourites

    Given that the Lib Dems haven't had a go at it in my lifetime and I've seen both the tories and Labour cock it up more than once, might as well let them have a shot.

    They really can't do any worse.

    I live in a local authority that, from time to time, falls under Lib Dem control. Trust me, they CAN do worse! :(

    Really? Is your council now £160 BILLION more in debt than it was in 1997?

    This is very much like the Rage Against the Machine campaign in that people were urged to buy the Rage song on Sony so the X-Factor song, on Sony wouldn't get to number 1.

    In other words vote for something that pretends to be different but is exactly the same.

    Ouch, if you think that "Killing in the Name Of" and the Miley Cyrus X-Factor song are the same there is something VERY wrong with your ears!

    i think you missed the point.... it didnt matter who the number one was signed to, it could have been one of Simon Cowells protege, the point was it was a campaign to keep x-factor off number one. again.

    Already sorted here - Labour majority is 405 with Lib Dems in 2nd, Tories lucky not to lose their deposit :D

    May 7th will be a Perfect Day for me - current party ousted, Tories in cellar

    I agree with most of what you say giving the lib dems a shot but think they are all bad as each other

    Can you provide any SPECIFIC examples.

    They appear to be the only one of the three parties who have actually costed their plans and set out where the initial cuts will come from.

    The difference is that Simon Cowell is an arch manipulator who needed teaching a lesson, whereas Gordon Brown doesn't fill the nation with quite the same horror.
