A plea

Anyone that votes for Nigel will get a farage of abuse

A plea: PLEASE DON’T VOTE (for anyone).

If you seriously believe voting makes any difference, you’re not paying attention.

Labour left a mess in 2010.

All parties tried their absolute hardest to delay and cancel democracy after the Brexit referendum.

The Tories left a mess in 2024.

Labour have picked up the baton and are continuing with the managed decline at warp speed.

Reform are a faux pressure valve, to make people think there is an alternative to the uniparty.

Westminster doesn’t hold any real power, they’re just middle managers. The civil service and legal system are subservient to international treaties and agreements made by unelected ‘elites’ (parasites) in unelected organisations like the WEF.

All voting does is legitimise the whole clown show.

Now, I'm not saying he's a Reform supporter....

I laid it out for you:
'...I know many from my research over the decades. British, American French, Belgian, Brazilian, German. Gimme a shout by country and I'll name them...

It takes no great brain to work it out. But then it appears you have no great brain...

Too dangerous to go off topic in here, we need a new thread for that subject.

But to keep in line with the thread..

Would you Vote for me ?

I don't think not voting makes any sense or will have any impact.

I hate aspects of every party and trust none to govern.

But most people don't vote anyway, it won't make a difference and you lose what little voice you have.

If people hate them all equally I'd say to spoil the ballot, at least it's a registration of their feelings.

I don't know who you are.

Reveal yourself, damn you, reveal yourself! Harrumph!!!

So I take it, your vote is heading my way..

It would make sense if a ‘no vote’ movement grew large enough.

There’s a reason there’s not a ‘none of the above’ option like there should be.

If there was a mass non compliance with the electoral system, no party could claim backing or mandate, and even if that meant lots of political turmoil and government paralysis, then so be it - it would force some fundamental changes (even if that’s something like manifestos being contractual agreements with the electorate rather than being disinformation that lose all meaning as soon as the election result is declared).

So! You are head of Lufthansa; and if you decide if books can be published or not, you must be the Right Reverend Donald(all kiss my ass) Trump(that's a name, not a fart - on second thoughts, that person is one big wet fart!)

If the Monster Raving Loony Party headed up in my constituency, they'd get my vote. One cannot fault their manifesto:
We are fighting this Election on the basis of CHANGE..

LOOSE CHANGE as this is all we’ll have left under a Labour/Conservative Government

MP’s will have to sit in stocks during their surgeries, while their constituents throw custard pies at them. This will help them judge their popularity within the community. Companies would also be encouraged to design new versions of stocks to trade at the Stock Exchange.

Rwanda…We will send all MPs who misbehave to Rwanda.

V.A.T….We will get rid of VAT as it adds no value.

Fly Tipping..We will ban all tipping of flys, insects, and zips of any kind..

Immigration..We will replace employees of the Border Force with GP receptionists. This will dramatically reduce the number of people getting in.

Cost of Living…To help with the cost of Living and to raise money for the Treasury we will Convert Numbers 10 and 11 Downing Street into a Hair salon, Which we will call ‘Government CutZ’.

Levelling up….Along with the existing Government policy for levelling up the North with the South, we will provide free Spirit Levels to all.

M.O.T….The MOT is an annual test to ensure that your car is roadworthy. We will introduce a ROT, an annual test to make sure all roads are car worthy.

Elections….After the next General Election, we will introduce a ‘cooling-off period’ of about 3 years in case voters wish to change their minds.

NHS…We will reduce hospital waiting lists by using a smaller font.

Legal System…To make things fairer we will introduce a Court of Human Lefts.

Foreign Policy…Once in Government, we will replace the Foreign Secretary with a British one!

Stamp Duty….We will abolish stamp duty. Stamps are expensive enough as it is without having to pay any duty on them!

Greener Cars……Once in Government we promise to have more green cars on our roads. Politicians will have fluorescent green cars so that everyone can see them coming.

Self-Serving….. Anyone using a self-service till in a supermarket will be given a 10% discount off their shopping.

Socially smart….. All Social Media sites will be taken down for one day a week for a “Remember when we used to talk” day.

Potentially and I'm not saying I don't agree with the sentiment.

I just don't think there's a realistic possibility of achieving the necessary ground swell of voters, at least not in the short term.

There's too many people so entrenched in their voting choice for it to work in my opinion.
