What a shame your excitable views aren't matched by you knowledge of politics!
For your info we've had a coalition Government for the last 5 years. You must have heard of the Lib Dems? Perhaps not, most people haven't. However they were part of a majority Government. That's democracy.
As for a mandate in Scotland- the SNP has 18% per person more to spend on the Scottish people than the rest of the UK had. Free care homes, free prescription, free universities etc. Not bad for an unrepresented country
So anything the SNP do after the election will merely be payback time.
No it won't. Their long term aim is still to break up the UK- if they get chance they'll make impossible demands on Labour, get what they can, when even Labour have to say 'NO' they'll scream ' There you are! That's what Westminster does to the Scots. Let's have a referendum'. And they'll win it. 'Once in a lifetime'-a lifetime is now 3 or 4 years.

Funny, he didn't say that either. He said health tourists who come for free treatment(including Aids) should have to pay for it. Badly put, he should have just mentioned that health tourism costs the NHS( that's National, not International) £2,000,000,000 every year.
Ludicrous criticism of the studio audience at the TV debate?
Well, now, was it?
102 pro Labour, SNP, Green, Plaid Cymru. All left wing, all wanting to spend more by borrowing more.
40 undecided, no opinion, no voice.
58 pro Tory and UKIP.
However you add it up that's a left wing majority of those who have an opinion!
Perhaps he had a point?
appear in public with his wife who is.....shock, horror German.......the list goes on and on
Is that mandatory? Perhaps his wife prefers her privacy. I don't really like these politicians parading their wives, children, babies, lambs, cuddly animals etc.
She's not a politician, why should she be involved? He's obviously not anti German, just anti EU.

Farage has stirred up politics but he's a poor politician- he says what he actully thinks. He hasn't learned how to lie, avoid answering a question or any of the tricks you need to succeed. Still naive. But he's a character, our politics is too overloaded with grey, boring establishment professionals. Nigel, Boris, Nicola(Heaven help us)- they liven up a very boring campaign.
