19:3434484are you sure about that date victor? i would be surprised if the government were denied the chance to complete their 5 years.
when you get a chance tell us the details of the meeting and their policies.
i had a brief look at the website, it does look a bit like the blues have borrowed some of your policies.

20:2234488The new act relates to the money spent canvassing for elections by the Political Parties. At the moment it applies to general elections and means that from January they will have to account for all promotional spending during an election year. Previously this only applied to the period between an election being called then the count. This is why we would all get swamped with those glossy leaflets saying "aren't we wonderful and isn't everyone else rubbish" in the period before an election was called. In practice it will mean more to the smaller parties than the two big single ethic parties ('we are for the working man so everything we do is good' or 'we stand for the business community so everything we do is good') as they will not be able to afford to distribute regular "we're so great" leaflets.
Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.

15:0134521Funny that, the reason I chose to settle in Dover (rather than London, Hertfordshire, The Romney Marsh or any of the other places I have lived in) was that it was here that I found the "better class of people".
Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.
