firstly - why are there so few threads in this section?

anyone intending to vote in the upcoming elections? i'm going for labour in the general - not with any enthusiasm but there is a tory threat and a lively ukip thing (nick griffin is an mep for west cumbria) In the local election i will vote green -for me! - but wish that (as it used to be) cumbria was in scotland so i could vote snp for both. i guess that most folk outside of s.east would be voting for snp -or a more progressive labour party, given the chance.....

lets just hope that labour win with snp support, eh?
