Re: The party's over

Hi

The problem with our system of first past the post two party politics is that it wastes an enormous amount of money, there is no long term planning.

It is all about winning the next election and political dogma rather than pragmatism.

Folks use manifestos as a choice tool, on the run up, but have no recourse, on the way down, that is silly.

An exercise in futility and the very sham idea that the establishment already use to keep themselves in power.

There is no legislation around a manifesto. You can put any promise you like in a manifesto and then once elected into No 10 simply ignore it and conduct a completely different agenda. That's why we find ourselves in the EU cesspit. Because every PM whether Tory or Labour has simply furthered the EU agenda.

A vote for Tory or Labour is a vote for the EU end of.

Time for people to wake up and see that if they haven't already.

It's time to STOP voting Tory/Labour completely.

They are the establishment in disguise.

Change is needed
