Don't doubt ya T.D. surprises me, though it shouldn't when ya take into account how many think corry n eastenders are true.

The large number of people(who do not understand the impications of voting BNP) that you work with, must be of limited intelligence, that is all I can say.
And I think that Caz is right......not voting at all lets these morons in.

That may be true Margaret, but voting is a right that has been hard fought for costing many many lives over the years in many parts of the world. Thing is though is that the people who have the right to vote are intitled to vote for whom they want whether we in general do not like those voted for. If those that they vote for hold beliefs that they do then they will vote vote for these people. They are not always idiots but those who stand by what they believe in.

We could not change anyone who want to vote BNP or force them not to any more than we could force or change Andrewb be from his convictions or political beliefs. I do not agree with AndrewB's political beliefs but that does not mean that I would force him to change just to suit me. The more we target the BNP for ridicule the more ammunition this can give them. I am not saying that they should be ignored but a bit more subtlety is needed. There is a need for counter arguments to these people that they understand and will find useful in weighing up the pro's and con's.

The point about not voting to me is an insult to those that gave their lives for this right and need re-educating in my view. It is not as though there is insufficient time to vote as polling stations are open for 15 hours. I have worked shifts in all forms and allways voted so cant see what is stopping others it only takes a few minutes to make your mark and participate in the future of or country whether for good or ill.

Some people are of limited intelligence so what is wrong with saying it?

Spuggie, I get your point...but to be honest I think it has all been said.......I don't think that this post can be improved or expanded on in any way......all of us will vote in the way we think is the best for us.......and some will not vote...despite the fact that people fought for the right to vote.......they do not see it as relevant to their own lives....or perhaps they feel ill equipped to judge and make a decision.(these may be the voters that the BNP will sweep up)This is my last post to this thread.
