This is in part to the fact that many Americans do see the world as just something for the USA to use to it's advantage and no mainstream political party in the UK poses any real disadvantage the the USA.
If a radical anti US party looked like it was doing too well then more would sit up and say "huh..... who switched sports centre over ?" but that's not likely to happen for some time it seems.
On a side note how many British people take interest in the elections of Finland, Bolivia or Iceland...... Very few ii guess because the countries don't have an influence on your lives.
we gave a shit about ukraine, but that's because it was teh rocka news story.
people are ragging on tony blair to "come clean" about iraq. t'other day i realised it's a whole lot more worrying if he isn't lying, and it's more important get him out. i don't wanna get drafted when we're getting schooled in north korea :fear:

I will place my usual protest vote...I just think that Kennedy needs to be replaced with someone with a little more va va voom.
If more people voted out of conscience rather than apathy...we might see some big change....as it is....Labour will get in again...for our sins. :huh:
