Not trying to derail the thread but can you guys suggest any alternative party's to look into?
I find Ukip and all the other traditional alternative party's such as the green party quite frankly a laughing stock with only singular visions and no depth or scope past their main agenda.
Honestly I find the fact that we have 3 main party's a joke as when it comes down to the bottom of it all, they are all very much the same in regards to policies/members who are there for themselves and not their constituents.
While the American system is far far from perfect (and I would hate to have the same system in Britain) at least you have two very distinct party's rather than the wishy washy fruit blender of politics we have at the moment.
I just want a party that has scope and a broad sense of direction past the "herp derp immigrants are bad" etc etc but dont want to vote for any of the 3 main ones due to the lies and slander that comes out only to make themselves look better...case in point "youth employment has risen greatly over the past year" yes because of the popularization of zero hour contracts so many people are actually in a worse off position now.
I just honestly don't know who I should give my vote to come the next election and while in a sense I feel the right thing to do would be to abstain, i would also feel I would not have the right to complain if any new policies that i disagreed with came into effect come the new government.
apologies for the rambling.
