General Election
Not just the NE - but major investors like Nissan and Honda pulling out of here will affect the whole country..... But David Cameron doubtlessly knows that; so even if a referendum yields a substantial "non" to the EU, we probably won't completely pull out 100% - more like we'll renegotiate our terms and involvement within it, to give us back our independence, in order to have our own say on how we do things in this country; without EU meddling. Not to mention scrapping the stupid EU Human Rights Act, which prevents us deporting those migrant criminals. And whilst on the subject of drunken politics etc., you're dead right about drunken groups. We need to remember that the business of who governs the country is important - and that means our politicians should not be mates down the pub. And more pertinently, a general election is not an X-factor style popularity contest!!

General Election
The country has spoken..... LOL - very good...:rofl: Whilst I feel for Farage, he did speak a lot of sense in some of the TV debates, I am pleased he did not win the seat. He did, however, leave his mark on the electorate and caused the Conservatives to question their own tactics. I would not worry yet Allan. Whilst Nissan and Honda have made such noises, it's unlikely they will follow it through. Any referendum on our EU membership will not happen until 2017 - so who knows if there will be an "EU" as we know it in 2 years time. Europe is certainly not seeing the green shoots of recovery - not even Germany - in the same way that the UK is. The whole "EU" bubble might have burst by then anyway.... Furthermore, now that the Conservatives have secured an outright win, it is MORE likely that foreign investors will come to (or stay in) Britain. Working in the construction industry, I know that several major multi-billion pound projects were put on hold in the last couple of months; pending financial uncertainty in the UK in the event of a change in government which would have threatened our economic recovery. Now it's over - and that uncertainty has lifted - the investors (including some big overseas organisations) will have the confidence to proceed once more. I reckon that will be repeated across many industries - automotive included. And no-one can deny the success of Nissan's UK production - EU or not, I can't see Nissan (or Honda) Japan turning their backs on us just yet....:wink: Richard:cool:

General Election
It is our hard-fought, democratic right to vote - or indeed not to if you feel that way inclined.... ...But if you do not vote, then in my eyes, you effectively lose the right to complain about whoever does get into government..... One final thought - as you have less than 15 minutes to get down to the polling station - is this. There might not be a "none of the above" option; you might not feel any of the candidates or parties are worthy of government. However, you will probably more likely feel that one or other party/candidate should NOT be in power. In that case, use your vote tactically to help keep out the ones you don't want from getting in!
