Back the poor, back working people, and back the unions.
I agree. I think it's about time politics went back out to traditional left and right wings once again; politics is very cyclical and I think we've reached a point where all the parties are too centrist and there needs to be some distinction between them again. I believe this is why the BNP, UKIP, the EDL and other unsavoury organisations have been gaining traction in this country - if the main political parties had more concrete, distinctive views then people would gravitate towards them rather than extremist groups.
