So what does everyone think the Local Elections will go like tomorrow?
Will many people turn out?
Who will lose out?
Who will gain?
Personally id like the Liberal Democrats to do well, especially where i live. My Local council consists of 27 Conservatives 24 Liberal Democrats and 1 Labour. The Liberal Democrats are doing alot of good in my area, they also say what they are doing regulary with a newsletter. The Conservatives dont seem to take into consideration the views of local people on issues here! I live in Buckinghamshire you see, its almost true blue:rolleyes:
Its a shame im not old enough to vote yet, and i wish more people my age were actually intrested noone seems to care anymore it seems, and these are the people who will be the electorate of the future.
Sorry i know ive gone a bit off topic, but feel free to discuss.:)

So, just how unpopular do they think they are, or is it that they will claim anything above this as a resounding success?
From a another perspective, I can see a few gains for the BNP - advertising slogan "People Like You" - as if some people aren't human or something - because people are happier to vote for them at this level, than they are at National levels...
Oh, and a huge outcry when they do
Right. Thank God.
Currently, but rather than be complacent and let them get a foot in the door wouldn't it be better to try and make sure that they don't get elected at all?
Am i going to be the only one who stays up to watch the results tonite?
Nope. I'm that sad too.
least im not the only one then!:D
I don't think apathy is the only issue pertaining to the BNP gaining council seats. Certainly in some northern towns there is a feeling that etnic minorities receive preferebtial treatment from local councils.
