Just been to vote in the local elections.

Bloody hell, there were some whackadoodle party names of that ballot paper.

We had 'IQ, The Rights-Duties-Party', 'Anti EU(ro) Party', 'ichooseforhonest.eu', 'Attention and Simplicity', and my personal favourite 'JESUS LIVES' (in all caps).

I settled for our national environmental left-wing party which I usually support in elections.

I haven't spoken all that much to bipolar danger girl in the past, but I'm sorry to read she's going through a rough patch. I'd convey my best wishes to her and the hope that she'll pull through.

The best was the "I'm English, NOT British, NOT European" party.

Half the ballot paper was standing on an anti immigration platform. It's a scary world at the moment.

Is England in general against immigration right now?

I'm sure there's some HILLARIOUS cultural context I'm not getting there, but what is the difference in this case between "British" and "English"?

From my experiences, that seems to the climate everywhere, believe it or not.

Apprently everywhere in the world is SO awesome, that people from everywhere else want to go there and take all the local jobs.

I think for half of the world the grass is greener on the other side. The other half, says get off my lawn!

Just from my personal experiences/encounters:

Iraqis - complain that Indians/Qataris/Turks take all the jobs.

Filipinos - complain that people coming in from other provinces are taking the jobs in Manila/Cebu/etc

Koreans - complain that Filipinos/Chinese/etc take all the jobs

Singapore - complain that Filipinos/Malaysians/Chinese take all the jobs

US - complain that Mexicans (and others?) take all the jobs

Guam - complains that all the cushy jobs go to non-islanders

I was gonna say, are there any small parties in the UK right now NOT based on overt xenophobia?
