Not worth posting in a new thread but this whole conversation reminded of this too.

I saw it the cinema a year and a half ago - very good documentary detailing exactly how we were systematically dicked from all sides leading up to the Iraq war, if you're interested.
-"Right to Protest, Right to Freedom of Speech. Right to Privacy. Right not to be detained without charge, Innocent Until Proven Guilty. Prohibition from Torture. TAKING LIBERTIES will reveal how these six central pillars of liberty have been systematically destroyed by New Labour, and the freedoms of the British people stolen from under their noses amidst a climate of fear created by the media and government itself."
However, who else do we have? I don't think the first time I get to vote could be for tories. I would feel eternally dirty.

That gives me ideas, I'd like to declare myself independent from the UK.

Can we get Ben Yahtzee Croshaw
reverse deported? Or maybe he could be remotely in charge of things, I can agree with him a lot more when I can't see his face.

What would he do?
Apart from reviewing games, having a sharp hat and a funky sense of humour, what part of britain could he actually run?

Dunno
I tend to vote for people that amuse me and that I don't massively disagree with rather than people who could actually run a country capably. This has got me into trouble before. This is why a plastic bird in a top hat that nods as if drinking from a glass of water is currently my local MP.

^what he said^
he's such a dick. He's got no training and when he tried to dip his toes in real building, he fucked it all up (ala here).
I enjoy Grand Designs but when he presents the Stirling Prize you can almost feel the room throwing him daggers.
