So what are the parties up for running?

It appears to me that Labour are collapsing. Everyone seems to be losing faith in the prime minister. 5 of the main MPs have quit in the last week and many more are apprently calling for the PM to quit.

Brown and Labour are collapsing, but i still prefer them to Cameron and the Conservatives

They have more or less the same policies. It just depends on who you prefer as the leader of your country.

Most of the Parties policies overlap massivly. Im not sure what the main difference are. What changes can i expect from a Conservative government? Im presuming they will get into power next year.

I'm sure I read a study recently which said that, on average, parents become more right-wing if they give birth to a son, and more left-wing if they give birht to a daughter. I think it might've been in the New Scientist. Anyone else see this?

I vote right-wing and I wanted a son (I have one now). Absolutly true.

Ah but really we need examples of people who used to be left wing, but are now right wing (after having sons - although it presumably takes a few years!) or people whyo were right wing but became left wing after having daughters.

 

Do you feel any more right wing now you have your son?!

What about people who have a son and daughter.

I think that the effect was supposed to cancel out ;)

 

I'll try to find a link

No... quite the opposite in fact.

I'm sometimes tempted to vote for the center.
