"What have the romans ever done for us??"
"The Aquaducts"
"Oh yeah, yeah they gave us that. Yeah. That's true. "
"And the sanitation! "
"All right, I'll grant you that the aqueduct and the sanitation are two things that the Romans have done... "
"And the roads.."
"Well yes obviously the roads... the roads go without saying. But apart from the aqueduct, the sanitation and the roads... "
"Irrigation... Medicine... Education... Health..."
"Yes... all right, fair enough..."
"Public baths! And it's safe to walk in the streets at night now."
"All right... all right... but apart from better sanitation and medicine and education and irrigation and public health and roads and a freshwater system and baths and public order... what have the Romans done for us? "
"Brought peace! "
"shut up! "
The point of this bit of dialogue from the Life of Brian, is that you shouldn't really bring up the question of what a Government has done for you. For reasons that have been demonstrated in the dialogue above.
As we know, the General election is right around the corner (the corner being the 5th of may, the election being the 6th) and there are many people who are taking an altruistic view on this election, a "can't be arsed, someone else will do it" view. To them, I say one thing....
Well done.
No, seriously, you'll be very proud of yourself to know that your vote has not gone in opposition of a party you know will have a very dire effect on the way you live your life. Your laziness was your undoing, congratulations.Cunts.
I'm aware that my blog is read by predominantly 17 year old people, and as such, aren't allowed to vote. Mainly, because my blog is written by a 17 year old. So seeing as I cannot vote, I find myself having to offer unbiased views on all of the parties. So, here goes :
Labour : To say they've grown stale in an understatement, they seem a party unable to offer any sort of PR with Gordon Brown at the helm, choosing instead to offer the great British public the truth.However, the truth is this, the country has just recovered from a major recession (apparently, personally I didn't notice anything, other than having to fire one butler, and only play croquet once a week). A recession that Labour has partly caused, but the same recession which labour got us out of quite well. Gordon Brown is a lifeless Jock bastard , and is out of touch with the current British public (most press say that he cannot see what is infront of his face due to him being out of touch.However, I think the fact he can't always see what's in front of his face is the fact that he only has one good eye)However, they are the only realistic party against the tories, so any Conservative hater will probably go here.
Gordon Brown: more scared of an election than an eight-year-old Chinese prostitute.
Conservative : Well then, Labour has finally ballsed up after 13 years, so here is where the vote of the angry voter will go to. However it may be a case of "better the devil you know, than the devil you dont" Seeing a Mr Cameron is an Eton Tutored, Thatcherite, which will cut taxes (this may sound good, but to cut taxes, he will have to reduce public spending, and therefore reduce the GDP and devalue this country. David William Donald Cameron (or Dave, as he wants to be known to us commoners) will also try to gain the support of the working class. I shall put this into analogy
" Mark is an executive of a large, multi national corporation, he has just been given a promotion to become the CEO of this large national corporation. He decides that it would be good for him to visit his office workers, in the hope that they will all go to his christmas party, however, due to the fact that Mark was able to inherit alot of money from his parents and had allegations that he only got into the executive board on account of who he knows, his office workers despise him. The workers then go on strike, forcing Mark to become miserable and lose his job to Gordon, a miserable, yet hard working Scotsman."
oh, and the posh Tory twat is in the back pocked of Lord Ashcroft, so if he won he would be just a humble puppet.
Liberal Democrats : Nick Clegg, the dark horse of this, he campaigns for "real change" in this election, this "change" of which he speaks of, is
- No cuts in national spending (great)
- tax breaks on most families (wait a moment, wont these two cause quite a large budget deficit having just come out of a recession?)
- Embracing the EU (great)
- Embracing the EU's plan to reduce the Nuclear warhead total (wait a moment, wont these two cause the EU, namely Britain, to become weaker in the eyes of a world currently getting more and more "nuked up"
Nick Clegg has also allegedly slept with over 30 women, great for someone with no political aspirations, but when you're running for PM office, is that really what you want to be getting used about you
"Nick, sir, what do you think about the economic growth"
"Well miss Jones, I dont know about economic growth, but by god you're giving me some growth right now"
Please dont sue me for defamation meester Clegg, I want to make it 31 with you :(
I have quite frankly, bitchslapped these politicians who are probably my superior in pretty much every way, but I've found that my anger is giving people a good laugh, and since politicians get it from the press anyways, what's a shitty little blog read by 12 people going to do ?
Till then, if you have the power to vote, choose wisely.
If not, appreciate the humour to this blog, because I bloody well tried with this one (and it's still a bit meh ish )
till then, remember that
The worlds not a shit place, I just make it seem that way. xx CAW
