I have a feeling that LibDems could have done a lot better if they had committed themselves to supporting a Labour minority before the election. The trouble with Clegg was that no voter knew quite what they were going to get. I think this may have fueled indecision among anti-Conservative...

New election because of the chaos and thousands of uncounted votes! Heads must roll at the election commission. Other than that, I think Labour can lead with a minority government (or coalition) because its policies will appeal to most of the smaller parties anyway. I do not want a conservative...

We could disband the government-funded army, police, and fire-brigades!! :) In an absolute capitalism, these would be available privately.

I like the system we have. I don't like the parties and the role of leaderships. I would much prefer to vote for a local MP who had expressed to me their own intentions. On principle, I support independent thinking.

Well there were many screw-ups at the polling stations, and I've just read that UK expats did not receive their postal votes. 1. Some local cards, had directed voters to inappropriate polling booth 2. Some polling stations did not have enough forms 3. Some polling stations were overcrowded and...

While I absolutely agree with the statement, I don't know if the UK could survive a prospective-PM Harriet Harman blaming all political disputes on married-men :lol:

Brown is a fairly elected MP, and he is the fairly selected Labour-leader. He also has the constitutional right to hold the role of PM. He didn't write those rules and he is playing the game fairly. The UK does not elect a PM

Not at all. All governments are strained at time of financial hardship and that is unavoidable. The fact that Labour lost seats is of no surprise to anyone, including hard-line Labour supporters. The fact that LibDems flunked isn't all that shocking because they didn't have popular views on...

We have that. It's called the United Kingdom :D

Yeah, it would require Conservatives to postpone the scrapping of benefits for children. I note that the vast majority of new Conservative voters are young and without children.

The vast lot of mes? Lets be reasonable.

Lab/Con coalition is cheaper :D

Their arrogance/ignorance is really startling. However, those qualities are historically associated with the party so at least they are being consistent :) Sometimes the British need that kind of leadership. I'm not sure if a time of subtle economic reforms is one of them. :dubious:

How about a Lab/Con coalition? :lol: Their policies are more compatible than Lib/Con.
