General Election - Do you think the time is now?

Before we get intervention from the resident Nanny....I think yes.
How the hell can the UK go forward with this bunch of Cretins?

Well most MP's will be pooping their pants at the thought of a general election because of what that would mean for them. They will have to face the very people that they have been robbing blind and I dont meen tax either. I would hazzard a guess that at least 40% could end up being binned by the electorate. The General Election when it comes will with luck force change in the house and there will be a new era. Well I hope so anyway.

Most of them will be deselected by their party before they even get to contest their seat.

Candidates are selected by local members of the party they represent.

Sorry Gayle, that does not answer the question.

Considering that the speaker is now being push towards a untenible position then yes. It is looking that the sooner the better though it is down to Gogs as to whether it happens or not.

Brown won't call an election beacuse the chances of Labour getting a majority are Zero! the best possible result would be a hung Parliment, but even that is clutching at straws...as far as I'm concerned he can leave it until the last possible moment. God help low earners and pensioners when the Tories do get in!

apart from the BNP I'll vote for any party that has a chance of keeping the Tories out...I don't know about you Royboy but I had to live here with that lot in power..or did I just have a bad dream that lasted 18yrs?

no matter how bad things get under labour it will NEVER be anywhere near as bad as if the tories get in

unless of course your pretty well off then you will be looked after which is how the tories operate and always will do

There all dead apart from Ken Livingston and The beast of Balsover.
Tony Benn is still with us but a bit past it.
New Labour was the ticket and it went tits up in the first year.
Bring back John Prescott if you like but.............come on.
For the younger generation please explain who would be your Labour saviour?

Is that even though he cant save himself. Time he realised that the country comes first. A quick general election which I would llike to see would mean defeat and he dosnt want that. Need a good docter to sort this out.
