(UK) If you had to vote for one of these two parties..?

Question

Which would you vote for?

The British People's Party

or

The Communist Party of Great Britain.


This is something I am researching for Sociology. The general idea is finding out whether, if forced to choose, most people choose extreme left or extreme right.

I don't want to risk breaking any YA! rules by linking to the parties' sites, but I encourage you to google them before searching. However, if you are on a work computer or are a little squeamish I HEAVILY advise against it. The BPP stuff is pretty "full-on."

If this is the case or you can't be bothered to google them, the BPP is an openly Neo-Nazi Party with emphasis on patriotism and race, and the CPB is a Communist Party critical of the lack of freedom and democratic control of the economy in the USSR and other Socialist States.

Please keep answers simple. Restrict yourselves to "BPP" or "CPB" if possible.

The Patriot · Accepted Answer

CPB, the better out of a bad choice.  

Just for the record, you are allowed to provide a link to both.

Sociology? Pull the other one.

I'd like to know why you chose the BPP (a really tiny bunch of nutters, with two already serving long sentences) instead of the BNP (a much larger group). 

Anyway, I'll vote Communist.  

By the way, the CPB is the Communist Party of Britain and the CPGB is the Communist Party of Great Britain. They ain't the same thing.

Never heard of the BPP until this post. They seem to be more extreme than the BNP. If these were the only two options I'd write something very obscene on the ballot paper.

I have never heard of the BBP. However communism as an ideology has been responsible for causing a lot more atrocities and deaths than the Nazis. Its just they don't focus so much on that on the school curriculum or the history channel. And it is also more authoritarian and oppressive so i would go with the BBP, as its the lesser of two evils.

Hey guys why i am getting voted down so much ? 4 downs?Don't believe me
check this out:

"In sum the communist probably have murdered something like 110,000,000, or near two-thirds of all those killed by all governments, quasi-governments, and guerrillas from 1900 to 1987. Of course, the world total itself it shocking. It is several times the 38,000,000 battle-dead that have been killed in all this century's international and domestic wars. Yet the probable number of murders by the Soviet Union alone--one communist country-- well surpasses this cost of war. And those murders of communist China almost equal it."

My point is that most people have a rosy image of communism. Power to the people and all that, When it is in fact a Wicked authoritarian ideology. Ever read Animal Farm or 1984? And next time you run into an immigrant from the former eastern block, ask them what they think of communism.

No - the rationalization such quite a few peole vote both Labour of Conservative, is because both those activities characterize a great presence right here in uk between the persons. Take me as an get jointly. Why do I vote Labour? because I come from a lengthy line of Quakers and Methodists of the operating classification type. contained in the business Revolution we campaigned for votes for all, we joined Unions and slowly created the Labour get jointly as component to the Labour circulation. "The Labour get jointly owes extra to the Methodist Church than it does to Karl Marx". we've a Scottish Presbyterian as PM in Gordon Brown and we are very fortunate to have him too. My next door neighbour, a London Cabbie, is a card wearing member of the Conservative get jointly. He once stated to me, "i do not care who the mayor of London is, so long because it truly is Ken Livingstone." So there you've it, a Conservative Londoner prepared to vote for pink Ken Livingstone and his nute series. human beings can vote for any get jointly they want, it truly is there loose selection. although the Labour get jointly stands for something very effective right here in uk contained in the hearts and minds of the persons. As certainly does the Conservative get jointly with it truly is lengthy historic previous of freedom of the guy and anti-slavery etc. i visit't positioned both get jointly down because they have served both the persons and the country ok both in cases of peace and in conflict. It does no sturdy to hate human beings in basic terms because they have an opposing attitude in politics. yet, if someone is now unemployed and needs to stay so, then with the help of all skill vote Tory. do in basic terms not blame me. VOTE LABOUR

If public voting was brought in to force voting either way, I would go with whoever was most powerful - and then work with the resistance to undermine and destroy them.
