politics - feh
See? This is what I hate and despise about British politics. See this man? I didn’t vote for him. I wouldn’t and couldn't ever vote for someone with policies like this. A quick perusal of his voting record tells me that he’s pro hunting, he’s pretty much anti-gay with his voting against the lowering the age of consent and his voting down of a bill that would have allowed gay couples to foster children, he didn’t do much, not even a token gesture to oppose the Iraq war, he‘s all for ID cards. Blah blah blah. Pretty much your typical right-wing tory overall. Yet he’s supposed to represent me and my interests in Parliament? With a supposedly majority vote. Even though if you think about it - more people voted against him than for him (59% of the turnout). Now tell me - how is this supposed to be fair?
