Well obviously YOU think you are being serious. What do you suggest just Tory and LibDum candidates? the incompetence being churned out by this lot in power on a daily basis is testament to the gullibility and stupidity of the electorate.

And please don't come back with the usual brainwashed tripe about borrowing money. And only the Tories can be trusted. I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw that Pickles monster.

We have had over fifty years of weak and incompetent governments of all colours and this one is no different. However for myself the blues are very slightly better.

A Southport MP for Southport would be a refreshing change!
