Next General Election

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Politics......I used to be a rose-tinter. I am now a realist. Crooked bastards, the lot of them.

The expenses scandal has proved them to be even worse than benefits cheats.

I agree in principle, Frank.

However, any such evidence must be presented in a fair and unbiased manner.

The process must be transparent, open to public critique and fully accountable to public scrutiny.

Then we should hang the bastards.

I've never changed my opinion when it comes to voting.

I never vote.

Bunch of cnuts. They've taxed the life out of this country and deserve a good kicking, not only that we've been left with a PM that wasn't even voted into the position, thanks Blair, you wanker.
Life is going to be wonderful for everyone when the Tories get in! :roll: :lol:

I was staunch Labour until a few years ago but now I just don't vote.

I have woke up to the fact that our political system and the jokers involved in it are nothing but self-serving arseholes.

My personal standpoint is going further and further to the right. Not because I am a racist but because I do believe our country is moving closer daily to a social collapse brought on by weak immigration laws and our leaders allowing us to be fucked over by Brussels.

The country needs to grow some bollocks and kick back. Unfortunately the only parties that have any balls are racist to the core and so will never have my vote.

Until there is a party whose only true interest is the country it serves I will not bother voting again.

If someone killed off the ailing benefits system which is crippling this county, I'd vote them in in an instant.

Sick of subsidising others and being left with jack :banghead:

In my 42 years on this planet one of the things I've learned is that ALL politicians are in it for themselves and to feather their own nest first and foremost. Some (a minority) will do decent work for their constituants, but only if it doesn't interfere with them lining their own pockets.

I've also learned that muff diving to a high standard gives you ownership of that poonani. Yes it does.

Oh dear.Can't say I'm surprised that people are so pissed off with the political system given all the lies and deceit of the last 50 years. Don't think I'll even bother to put an alternative viewpoint. I will just say that not everyone in the process is there to line their own nest. And for many it is huge amounts of work for very little reward.

However to answer the original question, if you go here

http://ukpollingreport.co.uk/

it will show the results of all the recent opinion polls and analysis of what they mean including looking at why people are changing the party they vote for.

For some reason the site is loading at the moment. :x
