Great idea, should give us an look at how things would go in a real election, through I admit I'm suprised at how the results stand right now; Lib Dems top (30%), then the Conservatives (21%) and finally Labour down to just 16%.

Hello all,
With all this recent furrore over Gordon Brown and the possiblity of his calling a snap election this year, over his ensueing unpopularity, I thought it might be interesting to stage a mock election here on the forum. I have tried to include all the mainstream UK political parties as possible. Here is the link:

Also, if you are not from the UK, please do not be exlcuded from this poll, and please also take a vote if possible. Though if you are not too clued into all the major parties and their principles, then just take a quick butchers at this handy and conveiniantly placed wikipedia page:
List of political parties in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Although I'm confident most are gauged in their policies.
The results will be collated and the new government chosen on April 8th 2009!
The poll is hosted on an independant site, but all votes are held in strictest confidence.
Enjoy your vote!
Make your voice heard!

A 'None Of The Above' option would be a valuable addition to gauge the number of people who are completely disenchanted with the parties listed. As it stands they just won't vote, skewing the results of voters compared to site visitors. Actually the number of visitors would be interesting to see so we could compare it to the total votes cast.
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised 'for the good of its victims' may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us 'for our own good' will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." -- C.S. Lewis
