The CDU is centre-right and considered liberal-conservative. So right wing might not be the best terms. At least I wouldn't describe them as right.

They are pro-business but they also (from what I've read) protect social welfare and work alongside companies and workers to reach fair compromises and deals. This is what a true Conservative party should be.

Plus, I have enormous respect for Angela Merkel.

So guys - I'm torn as to who to vote for in the snap election. I do like Labour traditionally but I don't like Jezer Corbyn, and they're hard Brexit. Do I vote Greens, who I have my heart with but are a waste if you ask me. Do I vote Liberal Democrats, I have a great deal of faith in Farron and am a member of the party. They're soft Brexit but also soft hearted, whether or not they flip-flop on their policies before is interesting, but their stance on Brexit shows they're trying to regain trust. Or, finally, Tories, and really bugger the country up.

I'm asking seriously.

The Lib Dems made it clear they would support the Tories did they not? If they did, I would not vote for them. However, if you feel strongly against Brexit, I'd vote Lib Dem.

Even if it's a wasted vote, you could go with your core beliefs and vote Green. Your candidate may not get in but you can vote with a clear conscience at least.

okay how is it that all the british people I talk to say the tories are awful but on paper they get the big votes?

It's the way the electoral system works. The majority of the country does not actually vote Tory. It's the screwed up First Past the Post system that produces safe seats and marginals that lead to Tory governments.

In all seriousness, I line up well with the LD's, so I'd say either them or Labour.

The Lib Dems said they would support Brexit, they can't exactly stop that now - even if they were the party of the opposition in the situation - but they would go for the softest one possible.

If they say they want a soft Brexit and you believe in them or like their leader, then I suggest voting for them. I think the Lib Dems might actually make some decent gains at this election. I have heard some Tory voters disillusioned with Brexit will be voting Lib Dem. I'm sure there will be Labour voters that will do the same.

As well as what Nurem said, a lot of British people vote in protest or to block out another party. I might be a Lib Dem but hate socialism, so I vote Conservative - because of the informal two-party system I'm encouraged not to 'waste' my vote and to instead for one of the two big ones. Labour currently has a hugely socialist leader and I know a lot, a lot of adults who have turned their back on them but go to Conservatives instead of Liberal Democrats because they think the latter have no backbone (they said they would not raise tuition fees yet when they were in a coalition they let it happen). Also, Brexit has encouraged people to vote Conservative as they are practically the party of Brexit that's not inherently racist like U-Keep.

It shows how thick a lot of people are. The EU has already said a bigger Tory majority will have zero effect on the negotiations. Mother Theresa is only doing this because she'd have lost her majority due to all those MPs of her getting prosecuted for electoral fraud. She's an opportunistic, power-hungry cow.

Why are there so many judges and courts in the regional judiciary? Has there ever even been a case?

Admirable as that is, UK federalism would never happen. Westminster is full of centralising control freaks.

What Westminster needs is voting reform. Then people could truly vote for what they believe in.

It's like a married couple that absolutely hate's each other, but remain together because of taxes and health care and theit kids.

This is precisely the argument I have heard from unionists. I'm not even joking. I have seen unionists refer to the Union as a marriage and Scotland and England as spouses. They believe Scotland is an ungrateful, whining bride and England is the long-suffering husband who holds the purse strings and funds her spendthrift lifestyle.

Trust me. It's the other way around. England is the spendthrift husband who is pissing Scotland's oil and tax dowry up the wall, while keeping dangerous weapons in the house "for our protection."

There are so many Judges because you might need alternates, in case one cannot be reached at a specific time, or if the case in question a particular Judge may be biased against. As for how many courts there are, technically there are two. The Supreme Court, and the Lower Court. The Supreme Court handles cases of law, and the constitution, and appeals of lower court cases. The Lower Court basically handles any and all disputes, suits, criminal cases...etc.

That is not the fault of the Judiciary though, anyone can submit a case at any time. The Judiciary not getting work is a good thing. It means that everyone is more or less getting along, and can solve problems on their own. The Judiciary should only ever be involved if its absolutely necessary.

Guys, a couple things

1. I'm sure that pastor was Anglican, not Catholic

2. I really hate it when you, Nurem, say that all pastors are bad because a select few sexually assaulted boys. Is what they did wrong. Of course, and they deserve to be punished to the harshest extent. However, your hate of, seemingly, all other pastors is unfounded, at best. That's like me saying "Well some atheist are b!tchy about religion, so that must mean all atheist are b!thcy religion (Not talking about y'all specifically, but y'all can be)". You know that's obviously not true, just like how not all pastors are child molesters.

3. Nurem, you've used the "Don't trust pastors because their child molesters" case to bash religion and the clergymen and women that participate in it. Is there any other reason you hate them? I know you had a bad experience with the Church, but that doesn't make an entire group of people bad.

This exactly. I know you won't listen to me because I'm part of one of the dangerous cults, but if you take anything, anything at all from this, it's that you don't go down to the level of those neo-Crusaders.

I don't want to revive an old argument from earlier. And yes, I hate them because they spread lies and false hope, as well as indoctrinate people to believe stupid or bad things.

Yea, I didn't see it was old till after the post, honestly, but just hear me out: To them, it isn't lies or false hope. It's not stupid or bad. To the clergy, it's their livelihood. This is many people's lives, their entire world view. It's something that shapes many people, and can even help people out of bad times. I understand that you look at it and say "But what about the corruption and the scandal and everything else". Your concerns are valid and understandable, and I respect them. However, when you go back around and generalize and stuff, it makes my thoughts and beliefs feel worthless and like I'm doing something wrong. There are crazies out there, don't get me wrong. However, I would hope that most people, religious or not, would actually care about their fellow person and empathize with them. To be honest, I don't know where this is going, so I'll stop, but just know that not every pastor is bad or worthy of hate. Hell, I know you don't hate Tserra, and he's in the clergy. He should show you that not all of the pastors are evil or spreading lies, even if you don't believe it. They truly believe dedicating their lives to GOd is the right thing to do. Again, you don't have to listen to me, but I just want you to know how I feel about this all.

Well apologies for making you feel that way. I simply don't like religion because of the psychological torture it inflicts upon people with its threat of a terrible afterlife in hell, its (in my view) twisted sense of morality, the idea that simply believing in a god can wash away all bad deeds and also because of the control the beliefs can exert over people's lives.

I'm not trying to stop you believing in your religion or practicing it. I believe in and indeed defend everyone's right to practice their faith. However, that does not mean that religion or its institutions or people are above criticism

Ru, whoever you are, doesn't really matter. Just do one mate, just get in the bin and stop storing it. If you want to be a part of our community actually do it, don't just have a p*ssing match on the sidelines whenever you get bored man.

you cant be a judge because you arent a citizen. you broke your oath of citizenship by failing to maintain a nation in the region.

Quick question, apart from the below comment what has this fine character done to insight anger? Like, specifically point me to quotes that are negatively insightful?

Well, you went un active. I didn't think that you coming back to say a few things justified you coming back for good. Though if you're coming back for good, we can work something out.

Specifically, I almost stole my seat back from you but Mag was chosen to replace you instead.

I think that one kinda fits into what Yuk was getting at, there?

As for his "Problem", I believe Yuk just called you Ruclax -An old member who tried to turn dictator twice before we just walked out on him with a swish of the middle finger- due to your prior residence in Montaris, as well as the fact that some other nations that have chosen to make the "clockwork" as Sul described have had prior homes in regions we've had conflict with.

It's so evident that he has multiple accounts, comes here and knows a lot about the region, comes from Montaris, just starts on Kal right away like every other puppet. I think it couldn't be more obvious what's wrong if the bloke picked up a shovel and smacked us in the face with it. If he wants to actually be a part of this region he'd stay, get involved and cut the bullsh*t - of which I'd have no problem in him doing.
