none of those parties have traction with the working class. but those people are in need of representation from one of the main parties, and they aren't getting it. you imply the left has no support, and the hegemony of the centre right is a measure of them winning the argument. if thats the...

and yes, what i want is a proper socialist alternative, and i want to see the working class represented once again (cf the rise of the bnp). so what do you want?

i don't pretend to be an expert in politics or economics, but i don't feel that any of the parties represent me in any shape or form, and i'm far from alone in feeling that.

yeast is something that should be treated, not eaten. i am prepared to make an exception for lager though obviously.

the only thing i want to chew after coming out of a club is my eyebrows. or some extra mint chewing gum at a pinch.

if we are talking in terms of the three main parties, i'd love you to enlighten me on which is socialist or even eschews economic liberalism.

are you mad? lembit doesn't do it for me though, i have to say - that lopsided crazy face. he really is a bizarre eccentric.

i don't understand why you think the uk needs another centre right party - its hardly as if there's a deficit of politicians in the middle ground is there? its a dreadful idea and an affront to democracy and proper, real representation when all the parties trot out the same tired old...

i don't forgive political parties for campaigning on homophobic or racist grounds. its not like its ancient history - in particular the simon hughes thing was only a few years ago. to be fair to them, they were the only anti war party and i like vince cable. but they've long been known to...

i just can't find obscure enough music on there, especially dance music. it doesn't interest me.

you make a valid point that they are all shit and essentially uk democracy boils down to being able to give the incumbents a kick up the arse every four years. but the lib dems are not that great to be honest. the main problem is with them is that they will say or do anything and pretend to be...

you'll find most of those people are just commuters from outside the city who think being in london gives them free reign to walk round in a self-absorbed bubble and generally act like cunts. the fact they don't live here makes them think its totally anonymous and standards of behaviour don't...

nah, the south is the place that has heart. that hideous wasteland they call north london, now thats different. lol

i know loads of londoners. my girlfriend is 2nd generation british jamacian, born and brought up in london. most of my mates were born in london. my ex wife is from london. i'm a welsh ex-pat obviously and i also know people from every corner of the globe who live here, but there are still lots...

oh really? well i grew up in wales and i've lived variously in the north west of england, home counties and london. i've seen things outside of london (and esp. in wales) which seriously make me doubt the future of the human race, no joke. and sure, there's poverty and deprivation in london...

Nonsense. its everything outside of London that is the arsehole of the UK, friend. i've tried them both for long periods of time and i know where my heart is. Plus the fact that economically the capital keeps the rest of the uk propped up. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you.

I'm coming to this. Would be great to meet you Droid (already know that reprobate Eden from his nascent UK-Dance years!

yes, liking that one very much! this pascal & sponge tune is wicked too - pretty mental off-kilter breakbeat: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value=""></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed...

it would be great if you joined. i use it for music and political discourse all the time. it depends on who your friends are, i suppose. i don't add people from my work for instance, unless i actually regard them as friends who have interesting things to say.

i've got tonnes of hardcore that inverts that relationship. the oscillator sound cuts right through bass. thats initially what attracted me to rave, having come from hardcore punk (people like extreme noise terror, napalm death, doom etc) was the power thing so evident in rave music. it was much...
