That UK Election Thing

Recommended Posts

Obviously it's the burning question we've strangely failed to put into words thus far, but...

 

For UK voters involved in dead pools, what is the best use of that vote. Sadly no party has yet articulated a specific strategy to aid dead poolers but there are a few indications. The Nasty Party are looking at austerity with a commendable disregard for freezing pensioners, the hungry poor and anyone else unable to contribute to Tory coffers, so there has to be some dead pool percentage there. Labour's usual mish mash of a little bit of social justice and a lot of disorganisation seems likely to help the vulnerable so we should avoid them like the plague (IMHO). A fringe party vote might tip politics into complete meltdown and bring about massive unrest with violence and obitable results.

 

Personally, I was very impressed with Nick Clegg's statement about reducing suicide by getting the NHS to copy the successful practice in Detroit of hurling massive resources and care at the problem. I'm thinking if the Lib Dems got another share of power and he delivered on that promise as well as he delivered on the tuition fees five years ago we'd see the poverty porn superstars and bi-polar celebs toppling a treat for the next five years.

 

What do our other readers think?

So, when the news says we've never been more politically apathetic...

 

I mean, I posted the first post over seven hours ago!

The comedy career is going well, MPFC.

 

To answer in the vein, a UKIP/Tory coalition would probably bring the UK out of the EU long term, and therefore crashing the economy. So no money, lots of death from starving and the cold and the like, at a guess.

I like the cut of your jib MSC, but I'm wondering how many of the starving masses would be obitable in this instance. Though, then again, a foodbank theme team would be a shoo-in if the foodbank folded for lack of resources just after Christmas.

You probably would get more responses if you'd just also designated it as a general general election discussion thread. Which you can still do with the handy editing feature.

 

People are maybe sick of being asked to parlay this and that into deathpooling terms. Almost as sick as they are of being asked which Stephen will die first, etc...

Agreed. This'll be the first general election I can vote in if some if you want to feel old. No idea where my cross is going at the minute.

I'm voting for whichever party wants to make the biggest pension cuts to Norfolk telephone-pole spanner-monkeys.

Are the Monster Raving Loony Party fielding a candidate this time round?

Yeah, I know one of them who lives near me, he's definitely standing and - ironically - the last time I spoke to him he was bemoaning the Loony's showing in the Rochester by-election. They got something like 198 votes short of the Lib Dems and my mate's argument was that too many other fringe parties had intervened. Without these other loons, he reckoned, his lot would have overtaken the Lib Dems, caused a minor sensation and snagged some new members.

Alex Salmond as Ed Miliband's Deputy PM. Swathes of celebrity tax dodgers throwing themselves off the top of the nearest accountants, and daytime celebs choking on a British Bake Off Battenberg, should keep us busy for a whole fixed term parliament.

Hell yeah, that's dead pooling paradise if we could only find a way to stop those tax dodgers dodging off to the Cayman Islands.

We could send a task force to invade the Caymans and then occupy them so that the tax dodgers ... Oh, hang on, we haven't got any aircraft carriers and won't have a fully operational one until 2020. Bugger!

Who needs carriers anyway. You could do the same as the Dutch and sell it to Argentina.

From that Wiki link, I learn that we'd have to sell it to the Dutch first, who'd then sell it to the Argentines.

I'd cut out the middleman.

 

Of course, if Argentina's taking, I'm willing to negotiate a deal with HM's government, for a small percentage.

We are no more likely to use spanners on telephone poles than you are to use a meat hook to wipe your arse with.

I'm sure once the Scots achieve independence, the foaming-at-the-mouth members of Al-Qaeda/whoever will find that to be an incredibly meaningful development, and they will make a maximum priority of ensuring that they only use some special dirty bombs which magically stop themselves from spreading their radioactivity as soon as they reach the Scottish border.

In the late 70s I went to commission some electrical equipment we had supplied to a U.K. oil refinery. The equipment was certified for use in an area that is likely to contain an explosive gas and it was plugged into an ordinary 13 amp socket. When I queried this I was told that one side of the painted line on the floor was considered hazardous whilst the other side wasn’t. “Does the gas know that”, I asked.

Yeah there's lots of fucktards around. The worst are the ones that actually think they're smart. (*motions/gestures vaguely towards his 'ma even though he's not really sure where she is*)

 

Was this refinery in Scotland perchance? Some might say it's about the only fucking thing that's "refined" up there :)

No, it's south of the Scottish border and east of the Welsh border. Ask Lindsey, she knows which one.
