The Conservatives expressed their intention to repeal the hunting ban under the guise of `Civil Liberties`. There is no mention of the hunting bill under that heading in this current document. As the parties were opposed before the election to this measure, can you confirm the current position.
These 31 objectives are fine.
However you have concentrated mainly on the public sector – not the private of third sectors.
It should be reexamined and amended to make as many of these objectives as possible apply to these other two sectors. For example in the private and public sector old style Unions are a thing of the past. You have proposed cooperatives or worker participation in the public sector but it should also apply to private sector – look at fiasco of B.A. Royal Mail, network Rail etc.
The public should not be effected by “us and them”-“management and labour”. The 45000 staff of BA should all be working through cooperatives with employees on the Board all working for the common good of the company.
Many of your 31 objectives should be part of E.U. or Federal legislation – not national, Gerald davies, Winchester.
Private Sector Political Policies?
Hello David the owner of this fantastic unbiased site. I would like to ask you a question; would it be possible for you to put up another Poll, asking who you would vote for if the Coalition Government was to collapse??? Could you control yourself by not fixing the votes this time round???? We all know that you removed the votes from the BNP from your last Poll which was not called for. I ask this of you so that we can have a fair vote this time.
Regards
Jon
who you would vote for if the Coalition Government was to collapse?
I no longer moderate this site, my son Caleb runs it now so you’ll need to ask him regarding polls.
Regarding the BNP votes in the poll, despite removing quite a lot of BNP votes (reasons described multiple times) in the end the BNP did not do as well as they did in my “fixed/unfair” general election poll.
My poll after removing the extra BNP votes had the BNP at 5%, actual result BNP 1.9%.
I was right to remove the extra BNP votes. Was you one of the BNP supporters that thought the BNP would get multiple MPs??? If so I told you they’d probably get zero again.
Shame it wasn’t as easy to discount the Liberal Democrat votes in the poll that had them as winning the general election! Unlike with the BNP votes there was no evidence of Lib Dem supporters cheating in the poll, my guess is this site got a LOT of Lib Dem supporters over the last 4 weeks of the election which threw the results WAY off (wasn’t too bad before the live TV debates).
Just goes to show how useless polls are.
BTW interesting how the BNP pretty much self destructed days before the general election! I was amazed they couldn’t even get their website back online before May 6th when the BNP webmaster took it offline because of an internal dispute!!! If someone took my sites offline would have taken me about an hour to have it back online (assuming I didn’t have to setup another dedicated server, no more than a day if I had to buy another server) as if it was my site I’d have used my server backups that any well organised business will have copies off (I currently backup daily).
Just shows how poorly organised the BNP are, not a big surprise, not like they are overflowing with talent.
