One of the UKIP candidates for Bristol standing at the forthcoming general election used to be a porn star. |

People are always moaning about 'career MPs' and how they should have experience of other jobs before politics, so, yes, I probably would! |

If a Candidate had been one for a short time when they were young, they could claim that it was because they were short of money. Most people can understand that. |

So if he was the only candidate whose policies you agreed with, that wouldn't make a difference? :-S |

No - because the Porn industry 'can' encourage violent acts by viewers against ordinary people. It can distort someones idea about consensual sex and give them ones to inflict on non-consensual victims. |

That's debateable. It could be argued that all the violence that we see on mainstream television has a much greater influence on people. |

Just goes to show that Morals and Ethics do not count in politics. |

Actually, judging from the moral and ethical standards of Governments both past and present, he'd probably fit in quite well :-( |

Absolutely not no matter what party and I think I would prefer death than vote for Ukip :-( |

Why do some vote for the same political party time after time just because their parents & probably grandparents too did the same? |

maggiewinchester | Report | 10 Apr 2015 17:37 |
That's always confused me, Dermot. Political parties and their aims and views have changed beyond recognition over the past 50 years. |

I simply vote for whoever I think is best equipped to run the country fairly. |

My mother voted the same way for as much of her life as I remember, but my brother and I have always voted differently to each other... I have told my son I don't mind who he votes for, in this his first election, as long as it is not UKIP ;-) |

My mother usually voted Tory, my dad varied between Labour and Liberal, depending on the candidate and whether it was a local or general election. |
