Well as most of you may have heard (may have not) the Labour political party suffered a horrific blow in the european parliment elections. Whats annoyed me most about this defeat is the fact that the conservatives had the majority vote in wales. I dont understand how this can happen, wales has ben Labour since 1918 and although I do not support the Labour party I definately do not support the Conservative party. I support Plaid Cymru (Party Wales), if yu havent heard of this party its all about wales becoming an independant country. At the moment wales is governed by England like Scotland is, But England have more control over Wales than they do Scotland. So P;aid cymrua re basically all for welsh independance. Now Gordon Brown if you ask me isnt the main reason for Labour suffering such a bad poll. I think the main reason is the recession, Labour are in power and so people are blaming Gordon Brown. Its not his fault but at the same time I think he could have done more.
The only good thing I can see that came from Labours bad defeat was that Plaid cymru got 2.something % more this election compared to the last vote. Saying that in britain as a nation BNP have gained a seat in the lancashire and now have 2 seats in the european parliment. Thats bad, the BNP are a bunch of racists in my view. I agree with some of their ideas but not for the same reasns. They want Britain to be a totally Christian coountry but at the same time they want it to be strictly British. Now I agree with the christian point (Even though Im aetheist) because I feel as a christian nation w ehave an Identity and were not just basically a soup of every religion. Thats not to say that other religions are to be prohibited but is to say that the majority are Christian, like the BBC broadcast from a Christian view and not from the view they are now. Britain is so worried about offending other countrie we have loast our backbone and that for any country is a backbone. I dont agree we should be a strictly british country but it would be nice to see more british people. Sounds strange but when you go to a city like Birmingham, you may be surprised to hear the british population is becoming a minority. I hope im not offending any one that read sthis as I do not want to do that, I am merely voicing an opinion. But back to my point having more seats held by the BNP is a bad thing.
Thats it for today, thanks for reading =D
