British 2015 general election poll

[Espresso and Insanity]

UKIP is too wacko and the Conservatives aren't right enough, so I'd probably vote for the Christian Party.

The Christian Party is about as "far right" or "wacko" as the UKIP. The differences between the two parties are marginal, it's just that the Christian Party has a stronger emphasis on social conservatism, while the UKIP focuses more on immigration and general populism.

[The Nihilistic view]

Thinks UKIP is too wacko.........Votes for the Christian Party.

Really tells you something about UKIP.

No it tells me something about you when you think a party what would make it illegal for minors to have contraception is less Wacko than UKIP.

[L Ron Cupboard]

If I were a brit, my vote would go to the Conservatives or to the UKIP.

You have something in common with Jeremy Clarkson then.

[Britanno]

if reagan is going to raise taxes why does he say he's not???

That would work if I supported Reagan.

UKIP's leaders are wacko, they just won't admit it because they don't want to alienate any voter group right now.

I'm red through and through - Miliband may not be the most inspiring or charismatic of leaders but he means well, and he's at least gone some way to de-Blair the party. I'm very supportive of Labour's plans for state competitors in the railways, and for an elected senate to replace the Lords.

In terms of outcome, I struggle to see past another coalition, but this time Lab-Lib, and I hope Miliband has the guts to say Clegg has to resign as LD leader if a government is to be formed. Perhaps then the social democrats within the party will take control of the leadership - Alastair Carmichael, Tim Farron etc. Who knows, maybe even the Greens or the SNP will get a shout.

[Britanno]

The Conservatives have tried and failed, and are now increasingly desperate. It's always a bad idea to vote for people who are desperate.

- Fixed the economy.
- Made wage rises that people will feel possible.
- Cut unemployment by a shit load.

Total failure.

I don't see the SNP joining a Labour government unless an absolutely huge devolution package and legislation on the possibility for future referendums are announced. The nationalists would be signing their own death warrant if they settled for anything less.

You're probably right on that one, it's just hypothetical, if a bit tenuous. Besides, I'm not sure anyone would be too pleased if the national government relied on votes from a party with seats in only constituent country.

Your article doesn't say anything about the conservatives fixing the economy, it says Germany's economy is weakened.

Predicted wage growth is actual wage growth?

Wanna run that unemployment trend back further and see what it looks like?

Because the state writing the rules, the state bidding and the state deciding who the winning bid is can't go wrong. Nor can making the upper house more politically partisan and less about objectivity giving more power to the three stooges.

[Grand Britaria]

I support the Greens and voted for them in the 2014 European elections, but the seat I'm registered to vote in at university is only just a narrow Labour seat. So I'll probably be voting Labour to prevent those dastardly Eurosceptics getting it. Any other time I'd most likely vote Green.

[Calimera II]

Kidding me right? The so called "best capitalist" of Nationstates supports Populists parties, how jolly.

Sorry, wrong link. Here's the one I meant to post.

No, but I'd say Mark Carney pretty trustworthy. Got anything to suggest we won't be seeing wage rises any time soon?

Sure.

They are the best option. Conservatives have no spine.

You registered to vote at Uni? I never saw the point myself and just vote at my home constituency.

Oh shit, completely read the graph wrong. My bad.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/10613201

So we've gone from the economy shrinking to the economy growing at a steady pace that wil result in us being Europe's largest economy by 2030.

Yeah, just as nothing that might have somewhat upset the economy has happened in the last 16 years, we can can all be confident that no such event will occur in the next 16.

And we did it back in 2009 Q3. under a Labour Government.

There are improvements, but Britain definitely isn't back on track.

No, it's because of this (well, it doesn't make things better though):

''Indeed, Germany is forecast to lose its position as the largest western European economy to the UK around 2030 because of the UK's faster population growth.''

[Britanno]

It would be quite appalling if the economy didn't grow at that point. What I'm saying is that now we have steady and good economic growth, compared to the tiny but of growth achieved by Brown

and all I'm saying is that what your saying is in-accurate. And you've already posted the evidence that shows it. the best 4 post recession quarterlies for Darling = 2.5% growth. the best for osborne is 3.1%. so there isn't a lot to seperate the two.

but year on year. http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.KD.ZG

2010 - 1.7 (The Last Darling year, Election May. First conservative budget June - between January and June UK economy grows 1.5%)
2011 - 1.1 (predicted - 2.1 )
2012 - 0.3 (predicted - 2.6 )
2013 - 1.7 (predicted - 2.8 )

In all fairness, growth was marginal under Brown because he was in office when the recession was in full swing. I can't imagine that any PM would've able to preside over considerable economic growth from about 2009-2011.
