OK, then it's your perception of their attitude, rather than their position on the issue they are pushing, that turns you off. Fair enough.

It would be both more honest and yet more patronising to say, "Fucking vote you idiot! Or stop fucking moaning."

I'd like to see it

oooh...zinger classic!! My opinion isn't actually part of a majority and it still my right to have it, and it would be immoral for me to vote against my conscience. My vote is of the "no confidence" variety.

Sorry Cic - That was just a general statement - not intended toward you or anyone else specifically.

Hey, you think it's easy being the politician? You have to climb up this ladder and stand on a tiny platform while trying to open the door and avoid falling off.

Then you have to put up with all the yelling from the people below.

(Taps foot.) Have you got any paper down there?
