Re: Who did your parents grandparents used to vote for
Grand parent's were strict labour all the way. So were my parents. But then years ago Labour meant something to the working man. As my nan said to me when I first started to vote in the early 80's,"YOU KNOW WHO TO VOTE FOR DON'T YOU!".
These days you don't really know what a party stands for as their traditional values have become so eroded,diluted or twisted, and many people like my parents just don't seem to care anymore. -

Re: Who did your parents grandparents used to vote for
Not sure but going by previous posts I would guess labour toosigpic
Do you really believe the other side without provocation would launch so many ICBM's, subs and ships knowing that we would have no option to launch as well? It would break our MAD Treaty (Mutually Assured Destruction) not to mention the end of the world as we know it.

Re: Who did your parents grandparents used to vote for
my parents are Labour. My grandparents were Labour. Personally, if Screaming Lord Sutch was still alive...............Who cared about rules when you were young?

Re: Who did your parents grandparents used to vote for
Now you are talking. Lived in Kent for a while years back and voted raving looney for a laugh. Funny thing is they actually got voted in where I was. Didn't really notice anything different in the area. It goes to show that even a raving looney could govern without any problems.
Screaming Lord Sutch was great live on stage. Had a great stage act including tall top hat and coffin, and those dancers were an eye opener for a young lad. He got stuck in his coffin once, that was another story

The main problem is that the Chief Executives actually run the local councils/authorities. Unfortunately, they are the ones who actually authorise changes. People blame the local councilors, replace them at local elections, but the Chief Executives just carry on regardless.
The Monster Raving Looney Party was meant to make a mockery of Government, both local and central. The press had a field day over their policies. Laughed they may have, but Screaming Lord Sutch has now had the last laugh. Some of their policies are now being implemented, the best example being the 20 mph speed limit. The press screamed blue murder, now look around. Cardiff council (they couldn't run a p**s up in a brewery), are thinking of making all of the city centre 20 mph.Who cared about rules when you were young?Comment

I saw the leader of the Loonie party on tv last week he said they would introduce a 99p coinComment

A 99p coin, that's a great idea. Saves me trying to feed all those dreaded 1p coins into the drinks machine at work.
