Please vote RESPECT

vote respect

I hope everyone will vote for the RESPECT coalition in the forthcoming elections. The anti-war movements were huge, why does it not translate onto real political power to prevent future wars?? While there are undoubtedly some problems with the coalition, it is the only show in town that is consistently anti war and anti imperialist. Furthermore, most of the left, especially the Green and 'anarchist' left does not attract ethnic minorities. It is imperative for left groups to get the different minorities involved, if there is a future at all for the left. I think that if, and it is a big if, Respect manage a breakthrough, than the left as a whole will be taken more seriously and not just as a talking shop. So, please vote RESPECT!

'why does it not translate onto real political power to prevent future wars?? '

..The war is everyday living sucker when all visible televised wars are over, in this brainwashed shit hole society based on fear and greed people strive to survive shit scared of the authorities and their punishments which people like YOU vote into power.

Don't tell us to vote. Stop trying to infect IMC with your own need for 'security'.

How exactly was the Green party not anti-war?

Of course it just doesn't fit the usual rhetoric to admit that a truly anti-war party already existed. I'd trust the Greens over Galloway and co anyday.

Why Vote for a party which asks peopel to vote for homophobic parties within its coalition. Respect Unity Coalition are a bunch of labour party rejects wishing to go back to the days of Clause 4 and the Seventies, this Respect Unity Coalition will do nothing for the working class.

A Vote for RESPECT will only aid these wanklers who use the working class and the watershed of the anti war movement to get where they want to get!

So Basically FUCK OFF! Respec'.
