Alright, here goes...by popular demand (well two people)
As there were a number of threads up and running around the time the US was electing a President, I thought I'd start one on the UK General Election which is just around the corner.
I don't really know how to focus this but I suppose we could start off on a general note, and then spin off into new threads if one or two specific issues get people's goat. I suppose it could also be a place for people to ask questions about how it all works over here - I'm sure they'll be someone around who can help
Here are a few questions to start the ball rolling:
What do you think the outcome will be?
Are there any differences between the two main parties?
How does the political process differ from that in the US? Does that make it better or worse?
Will the result have any significant effect on US/world politics?
Do you think the Liberal Democrats will have much of an impact this time?
Who are the Liberal Democrats?
Ooops, a fair few questions there! Plenty to hopefully get your teeth into.
From a personal point of view I think it'll either end as a small Labour majority, or a hung parliament. The other alternative doesn't bear thinking about!
