    I would love a Green party Syriza style breakthrough, but the FPTP system means change won't happen. So you are stuck with a Lib/Lab/Con vote and each of which would be a crime against humanity (illegal wars, bank worship, child abuse coverups etc). Just horrible.

    Never has a system looked so broken and corrupt.
    So who is this nasty party? :
    America doesn't have a labor party, so I'm not familiar with them either. How does the Green party differ/compare to the others?
    Are conservatives over there like the ones in America? (Bush-Reagan)
    Is there a party that feels itself to be morally above the rest?
    And last is the liberal party over there similar to America's liberals who are okay with television shows that allow guys kissing guys. Funding programs that sound good, but don't really do much but make more dependency.
    They're okay with girls on girls....well that in particular is okay Liberals here really allow the conservatives to slap the label of godless across the board.
    Any party like the labor party will be labelled as red or commies in the U.S. and that's why they don't have one over there. By international standard, US is a rightist country and that's why most people from other countries don't understand them. You can see the same ol' political debates here that's been repeated over and over again over the years without any resolution. They simply don't understand one another and they never will.
    Once in awhile, get outside in fresh air, take a deep breath & with a deep sigh, let out all the things that's bottled up inside you & be free, & you'll get a glimpse of nirvana.

    Cash for access' scandal: Sir Malcolm Rifkind says 'unrealistic' for MPs to live on £67,000 salary

    The Tory MP has denied any wrongdoing meeting with fake Chinese firm.

    Sir Malcolm Rifkind has defended his alleged offer to use his influence to help a private company by saying it is “unrealistic” to expect some MPs to live on their £67,000 basic salary.

    The former Conservative Foreign Secretary has denied any wrongdoing after being filmed meeting undercover reporters from the Daily Telegraph and Channel 4’s Dispatches posing as a fictitious Hong Kong-based communications agency called PMR.

    Sir Malcolm was yesterday suspended from the Conservative Party following a meeting with Michael Gove.

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Also, too, Jack Straw. Who hasn't resigned from the Labour party unlike Rifkind who resigned from the Conservative party.
