Read a short piece on your guys' election this Friday. How is it possible that 5/6 of the candidates are Independents? Is it that a bunch of them are outsiders and they don't have to arbitrarily align themselves with a party like in the US?
More so, how the fuck is it possible that half of them were on Dragon's Den?
Is this race even up for debate, or is Higgins a sure thing?

>How is it possible that 5/6 of the candidates are Independents?
It's a mostly apolitical gig but some of the candidates are endorsed by certain parties
>how the fuck is it possible that half of them were on Dragon's Den?
I guess because they want to be president for the bants, same with Trump from the apprentice
>Is this race even up for debate, or is Higgins a sure thing?
Pretty much, the media is largely pro Higgins and even if there was more opposition to him there are five other candidates so the vote would be split, I'm not voting for Higgins cause i think he's a cuck but I know we'll he will win

Thanks for the insight
Interesting to see what the important issues are in elections where you're not putting the winner's finger on the button to launch nukes, which is all I've seen here my whole life. Seems much more civil over there.
Julian Jackson
No worries man, and it's good that Trump hasn't launched any nukes..so far

Is a 'no' vote what conservatives are likely to do? I don't really understand the issue at hand.

On what grounds?

It's just removing a word from the constitution so that there is no longer a requirement for there to be a law against blasphemous material. I don't think anybody's been done for it but Muslim groups wanted to invoke it against anybody who would publish the Charlie Hebdo cartoons. Getting rid of it sounds like a good idea for free speech in principle but there's still plenty of room to create "hate speech" laws. I can only imagine the end result will be "hate speech" protection for minority religions but no protection for Catholicism.
