Its the ECONOMY stupidThis thread is about the forthcoming election, it probably is patently obvious to you that the majority of the British voters are not interested in fundamentalist christian drivel, in fact very few of the have any form of interest in religion at all. So start a separate thread re the drivel and I would be happy to partake.
Freedom of religion is an issue. These examples have nothing to do with fundamentalism - that is you forcing your own interpretative framework on the British scene. We have no church state separation here and 70% of voters say they are Christians. Various religious issues will strongly figure in this election albeit not for the majority of voters- such as Islamic based terrorism, freedom of faith for Christians and recent gay marriage legistlation which split the Tory party in 2 and caused the flight of a great many members to UKIP. This election will come down to a constituency by constituency fight in many cases where a few votes might swing it. People who hold a view are far more passionate on these issues than on things like the economy for instance and politicians ignore this at their peril.
