Jon Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Out of the main parties, I could not vote for the Tories as I have a social conscience and care about the more vulnerable in society. I could not vote for the wishy washy Lib Dems. Labour at least do not have the "Me, me, me!" attitude of the Tories but they have made so many mistakes that I don't think I could vote for them either. As far as I can see the only honest party are the Official Monster Raving Looney Party. I will vote for them, or if they do not field a candidate, then I will spoil my ballot paper as I did in the council by-election. well, the post stared well, but then seemed to tail off somewhat. does wishy washy mean "I don't think they'll get into government, so not worth voting for"? seems quite an ill-infomed comment to me, that one.

Very neutral Jon :winkold: does wishy washy mean "I don't think they'll get into government, so not worth voting for"? In a roundabout way I think he's right. For domestic policies I think the Lib Dems are far and away the best party or the one most in line with how I see things. The trouble starts imo in their approach to the outside world which is indeed quite 'wishy washy'. If they got a bit of a grip regarding foreign policy - and a new leader! - there's no way I wouldn't vote for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Not to mention Brown has screwed me again, according to the news today, flight levies to NZ from the UK have been upped to $298... **** disgrace.. Oh please. Yet Mr. Cameron flip-flopped repeatedly on VAT on air fares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you have just proved that your comment is the ill-informed one as you don't seem to understand the English language. Therefore, as I am a nice guy, I will tell you that wishy washy means "lacking in decisiveness; without strength or character; irresolute." That sums up the Lib Dems pretty well in my humble opinion.

If you're going to write off a party as "wishy washy" without any evidence or facts, then that is your prerogative, but i find it a very weak and, yes, ill-informed stance. a wishy washy point of view, in fact......

Very neutral Jon :winkold: Hey, who said I was neutral? very left leaning, me. just don't blindly follow one partcular party, so can take a more detached view on things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
