They can not come up with a credible exit plan, or lay out how it will be after.<br /><br />Sadly, although the grass roots UKIPers do mean well, the main party lets them down something chronic. I could say the same about some grass roots tory's but thats another debate.<br /><br />I think with voter (well you call it apathy, I call it indifference) then there will not be an overall winner. So we enter another coalition be it lib/lab or lib/con. Basically people are not bothered because politicians do not listen, do not act and do not do what it is they have been elected to do, instead they go with "party whips" to hell with their constituents.<br />There is nothing people can do about this for a period of 5 years. yeah, they don't even have to put a budget together until after that point, when they <b> tell </b> me how much of <b> my </b> money they intend to spend. they demand it and there is nothing (I will repeat nothing) I can do about it. not for the next 5 years.<br /><br />I am sorry to use your Sunday name, but this is just now getting silly, so tell me Christopher do you finally understand demand 5?<br /><br />5.<b> no taxes or spending without consent:</b> no tax, charge or levy shall be imposed, nor any public spending authorised, nor any sum borrowed by any national or local government except with the express permission of the majority of the people, renewed annually on presentation of a properly authenticated budget which shall first have been approved by their respective legislatures<br /> Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00373005279697295131noreply@blogger.com
