Dear Punkfolkrocker, many people fully expected a new dawn when Labour got in, in 1997. However, we saw the continuation of Tory policies, rebranded maybe, but none-the-less fulfilling the same function. Did they repeal the Tory anti-union laws? Did they reverse the trend of increasing taxation? Did they stop making oppressive Law and Order legislation?
Did they buggery!
The only difference between the Labour, Tory, Libdem, UKIP, etc is the colour of their rosettes. This is because they can only ever attempt to run capitalism more efficiently. These parties are funded by the rich, the state borrows money from the rich and if they tax the rich too hard the rich will take their money elsewhere. They are, as we all are, slaves to the rich. Putting the mark of an illiterate in a box every five years is something up with I will not put. I will not choose something I don't want, frankly between Labour and the Tories, its impossible to say which is the lesser evil. So I will be casting a write-in vote for socialism, that is writing something along the lines of 'world socialism, anything else would spoil my ballot paper' right across the names of all the various shades of grey that tell us to vote for them because they will run the show better than the next guy. There is no 'higher moral principles' here, the capitalist system is not in my interest and I will not kiss the hand the slaps me by voting for it.

Travelling people will continue to be discriminated against whoever get in. If they are disturbing the money making system, even indirectly (e.g. by upsetting the labour force) they will be legislated against by the state.
