This is what happens when you have a party system that encourages political apathy. The press, and the parliamentary system has become so dominated by soundbite politics, most people don't know, understand or care what party policies are anymore. The BNP bandy a few 'patriotic' slogans about that reflect the fears of the majority which have been fuelled by the scare tactics crap spouted by the popular press, and people will just blindly follow what they see as a common sense solution. My mum, god love her, 'reads' the Sunday red tops and the Mail and quotes things that she has read as though it's a statement of fact. I've explained to her that the most important 'fact' to know about the UK press is that red tops are written to be understood by an audience with a reading age of 11, the non-red top tabloids have a reading age of 15, and the broadsheets have a reading age of 21. If your political influence comes from information aimed at a child, you're not going to be getting much of an understanding about the important stuff.

I don't think anyone would really want to go down that route again!!

I thought the point was that they were prevented from the route Wink

It was merely a turn of phrase meaning I'm sure no-one wants a repeat of what happened then!!!

I know...I was joking. Word play.
