The Observer poll paints a mixed portrait of Britain after eight years of left-of-centre government. While a majority now supports tough immigration laws and the detention of terror suspects without trial, and one in five considers it acceptable to use information obtained under torture from terrorist suspects, views on tax are surprisingly liberal, with 59 per cent supporting using tax to narrow the gap between rich and poor. A majority also supports the expansion of public services, even at the expense of some increase in taxes.

The important thing is to remember to go out and vote against Labour :)

to clarify my position:

Labour are in power currently, they have proven themselves slimy lying weasels

the Conservatives were in power before that, they proved themselves lying slimy weasels.

Labour got into power in 1997 largely on the back of people's hatred of the Tory party.

Voting to keep someone out doesnt work, you just get a different lying weasel, so place your vote for the people you'd be happy to see walk into 10 Downing Street. That way when the winner stands up on television and talks about a mandate from the masses there might be a shred of truth in it.
