Inner cities denied the vote at the next election

Inner cities denied the vote at the next election

Gypsy Rose Dale has examined his crystal balls and gives us his analysis "I now predict that by this time next week Gordon Brown will definitely have called an election". In his post he states: "Channel 4 News have a YouGov poll tonight showing an eleven point Labour lead". So, his prediction has some measure of justification. However, to the left of this post, in the sidebar, is an advertisement proclaiming that "Gordon Brown is the wrongman" and "Gordon isn't working". Obviously, there is no justification for this load of bollocks. The message this advert sends to me is that the Tory Party is talking a load of bollocks. And then, they wonder why they are not electable? Clearly, the 11 point lead shows that Gordon Brown is the right man. His job as Prime Minister and leader of the Labour Party is proof that Gordon is working.

The Tory Party is officially known as Her Majesty's Opposition. And yet, they are as big a cowards as the Italians and the French running from the Germans in the last war. We are assured that we live in a democracy, and yet nowhere in Gordon Brown's pre-election speech at the Labour Party conference did he mention the word democracy and what it means. Similarly, with the Tory Party, democracy is under threat by Gordon Brown and the Tory Party instead of fighting him on this issue, again like the French, they have become collaborators.

Recently, 250 bloggers united under the banner of freedom of speech against the Ubekistan gangster Alisher Ulmanov. Freedom of expression is a human right and it is a worthy cause. Part of exercising freedom of expression is being able to partake in the franchise. Universal suffrage is a human right in a 21st century democracy. And yet, a large section of the public in this country will be denied their human right to vote if Gordon Brown decides to go for an early election. And why is this? Because the Minister of Justice is not only denying them justice but he is also denying them their human rights. If the Tory Party are not even fit to be in opposition they are certainly not fit to govern.

It is not so much about when is the next election. It's about not denying those entitled to vote from exercising their human right.

It is a human right for convicted prisoners to vote. Neither Labour, Conservative nor Liberal Democrats have the courage of their convictions.
