I don't see ANY of the main 3 political parties being any good for our country. There is MORE back biting and in fighting between the parties, mp's and anyone else close to parliament than actually GETTING THEIR HEADS TOGETHER for the Betterment of the UK.

SORT THE Country FIRST then help anyone else. The taxpayers deserve to spend their money on themselves and their country FIRST than send OUR money abroad to help countries that HATE OUR GUTS
