Dude, sweet newspaper, ever think of joining the Times of Troix, we're recruiting, just contact 111222333444, and tell him that I sent you, I hope to see you there!

I sent him a message

@ clarckjordan: great, can't wait to see you there!

Whoa!

Conservative manifesto is looking good.

nice papers

Quite inspiring now that Spain is in a formal election campaign!

Here is what I think about each party:

[b]Green Party:[/b] I think it's great that you are switching to renewable energy. I also like that you are planning to make universities and colleges fee-free! I would definitely enjoy those sorts of policies, especially in my country...

[b]Labor Party:[/b] The one thing that grabbed my attention was your focus on ridding those filthy sex offenders of comforts (longer visiting times, TVs, video game consoles, Internet access, etc.)!

[b]Bergerland First:[/b] The policies that you fascists are planning to introduce are absolutely disgraceful, especially for a country as swell as it is. My country would give you the deathly needle if you are known to even have connections to the fascists who are begging to oppress Bergerland! No votes for you fascists!

[b]BPN Party:[/b] The idea of instilling completely free health care with no strings attached is simply marvelous!

[b]Red Party:[/b] Confiscating land from the rich and giving it to the public? Umm...

[b]Conservative Party:[/b] While it is obvious that expanding the airport using money from the transportation budget leaves none for road maintenance as it is now, the idea of giving the airport to the private sector and letting [i]them[/i] do it from there is a definite money-saver (it won't be eating up the transportation budget)!

My vote is for the Conservatives! As always, I wish every party good luck in the upcoming election.

Wow, thank you for that brilliant reply! This is the sort of thing I was waiting for! I hope you enjoy the TV debates which I am about to start writing

Aussie?

Me? No I'm Scottish and the CJ is about a Nordic country in Europe xD

Love the manifestos, they are really realistic! OK here's my opinion about each one:

[b]Green Party:[/b] Great ideas. It's hard to believe that there are still countries without free college education, so it's good to see there's a party that cares about universal access to education and health + great logo! Olav Askerdahl's foreword is quite uninspired, though.

[b]Labor Party:[/b] It seems they've run out of ideas, the sex offender's prison comforts are just not as important as to be mentioned in the manifesto. The tendentious graphs that make the progress look bigger than it actually is, are specially realistic in party manifestos.

[b]Bergerland First:[/b] I'll just say it's sad that this kind of parties are being increasingly voted across Europe.

[b]BPN Party:[/b] Although it has some good ideas, it looks inconsistent and without much ideological background. Also, "however" must be followed by a comma

[b]Red Party:[/b] First of all, don't like the picture of Marx XD. Having said that, the content's not that bad. Total equality may seem rather unreachable but it's ethical.

[b]Conservative Party:[/b] Quite a known speech! I could never understand conservatives' obsession with tax cutting!

Anyway, my vote votes for the greens

Only one problem - in the red picture the fist will be the same color with star

Meeeeh... I don't know which to vote. I have the same feeling about Spain's elections... :/

I like how much work you put into this!

However, I am a little disappointed with your communisty party manifesto. You know, far left wing parties DO have proper manifestos, not just rhetorics. But that's another discussion. I don't know if it's just me or if you put less work into this, which to me seems kinda biased. Then of course, I am biased myself. There were a few things on their manifesto that did not make sense to me - such as cap on immigration, that's not a "red party" claim at all, more for the conservatives. Because cap means you set a limit for how many immigrants a country takes in, right? Which does not fit with their ideology. I think you should've focused more on actual demands in their manifesto and the financial crisis/lack of jobs because of it, which naturally would be one thing they would care about.

Bergerland First scares me. Death penalty for rapist? Banning mosques? I sure, for your city's sake, hope they don't win. (Not that I believe they will, most people on this site seem kinda sane.)

I'm sorry about the commies manifesto xD I wanted your opinion but I couldn't get hold of you xD I don't know a lot about communism. I was just going to put any errors down to the party trying to score brownie points xD Maybe you can review the TV debate which is almost finished now.

Oh, and yes, it's quite scary that 5 people have voted for them so far. I hope it's because they are stupid and only voted because the logo is nice :L

I would love to review the debate. But now you have to base the debate off the manifesto anyways, I suppose

Given the information provided in your party manifestos, there appears to be no ideological party "home" for me -- just like in real life! I'd like to know more about their specific economic policies. But it's a relief to consider real issues, however pretend they may be, instead of the noise that passes for politics sometimes in the good ol' USA -- e.g. whether Rick Perry had a few drinks before giving a speech in New Hampshire or where Barack Obama was born. Ugh.

ANYWAY... for whatever it's worth, I cast my vote for the center-right party.
