Digital economy bill

One thing that might swing it in favour of the lib dems is that they are against the recent digital economy bill, and Nick Clegg recently stated the bill "badly needs to be repealed", although he doesn't actually say thats what they will fight for.

Spoiling ballot NEVER helps!

Inq readers of the werld unite!

Spoiling your ballot NEVER helps, certainly not in the UK first past the post system!

Best thing to do would be ... ummm:
Vote Liberal Democrat - they've *never* been in power, if they get into power then they will have something to lose, so they might take heed of voter concerns ... and if they don't, then both the parties and the voters will see that there is room and momentum for new entrants to the political field - hopefully that will in the long term break the 2 horse race that exists now.

Me, I'd probly vote Labour, if I was in the UK, and depending on which electorate I was in.

<sigh Luddites aren't the control freaks, Nick.

Having taken this moniker on a whim, guess I'll defend it.

Luddites aren't exactly backwards or against change, only against de-humanizing industrialization, or here, against more gov't control and insane "technology" that leads to loss of personal sovereignty.

What you meant is that those in gov't are the usual savages heedless of the effects of policy on the governed. That's practically the definition of gov't. But just because they use clubs doesn't mean that they wouldn't rather use machine guns.
