Voting Behaviour Questionnaire

Sussex Shrimper · Aug 28, 2007

1. Green
2. No, I voted Labour before it became apparent just what a scumbag Blair really was.
3. The war in Iraq - Blair's disregard for public opinion and willingness to lie in order to justify (in his view) his actions, moving to Brighton and seeing that a minority party really can collect a meaningful share of the vote, cash for honours, the unlawful cancellation of the BAE enquiry.
4. Labour (AFAIK).
5. In favour as a trading bloc, very much opposed to the idea of a European superstate, EU constitution, etc.
6. Let them in. If they weren't here then the nations bigots would only find another minority to vent their anger problems on.

How true is that, it's always someone else's fault so who would get the blame in Daily Mail land? Probably canabis smokers.....

I got to know an Algerian asylum seeker once - very decent, funny bloke. He had been working the front desk of a hotel that was hosting an African Leaders conference. A few weeks before the conference took place he was approached by a terrorist group and ordered to hand over confidential itinerary details- he refused. A few days later he was shot and left for dead (he showed me the bullet wound in his chest.) He had to leave his lovely life, missus, friends and family for the squalor of a disgusting council flat in Tooting. He used to carry around photos with him everywhere and longed to go home....but he knew that if he did he would be endangering not only his life but his family's lives too. So he stayed here, trapped and unhappy. Oh and he worked two jobs by the way.

Don't believe the hype and bullsh1t, life's a bit more complicated than black and white......
