Re: [LU] : Manchester

2015 66% turnout, Tories got 36.9% of votes 51% of seats. 100% of Government. Apart from the 2010 coalition I don’t think there has been a govt with the majority of votes for a couple of generations. Local and European elections often less than 30% ttfn Richard From: Nicholas Armit

Re: [LU] : Manchester

That may well be the experience in your country, but it's a special case as the involvement of religious parties is part of the basis for your existence. Modern European democracies are all based on PR and better for it. In the UK the vast majority of people's vote are literally worth nothing.

Re: [LU] : Manchester

Ridiculous---You can never appreciate ridiculous till you live under proportional representation. It promotes militants loons. In Israel the 10-15% penguins are 'driven by' a third motivated ones. They then hold the balance of power. You do not get diversity you get lunacy. No one looks to

Re: [LU] Plan b? Please no!

My colleague is a boro fan. He said it was awful to watch despite eventual promotion. Karanka is like mourinho. Thrives on division and is stubborn. How can you fall out with one of the best chairmen in football who has backed him to best of his ability 100%? Got a lot of time for boro. The

Why? He actually did get promotion with Boro right?  I too would like Monk to sign up but his demands need to be in reason too. Having a Plan B is sensible and I do not think Karanka is a bad option. Nick From: Jeremy Adams To: "leedslist@gn.apc.org"

Re: [LU] Plan b? Please no!

Because I think Karanka plays unattractive football and also because I believe Monk has started something here and if we give him another season he could create something. Getting Karanka means we start all over again and have another "transitional" season.

Re: [LU] : Manchester

I'm of the opinion if you live in a democratic society and benefit from that, you've also got to accept responsibility for decisions made by democratically elected politicians. Blair went to parliament, who voted by a large majority to back him. That's how things work in a democracy, flawed
