Good Morning to all forum members.

Today a whole day of voting is possible with another half day tomorrow. I have noticed some comments as to our policy on capital punishement and becasue we are a 'listening' party for 'you', then I would like to explain that policy again.

We want to see capital punishment restored as the maximum option for murder,as a maximum option it would not always be used and of course there would always still be the option of appeal for anyone convicted.

We do however want to see capital punishment as the sentence for multiple murder,again naturally an appeals process is still an option for the convicted but we do feel really strongly that enough is enough.

The other point I want to stress though, is that everyone is and should be responsible for their actions, there is one way to ensure that capital punishment would never need to be used and that is for people to not 'kill' other people.No one needs to fear this policy unless someone is full of intent to kill another Human being.
Why should,for instance, parents,extended families and society see their children killed for no reason whatsoever by people who should be stronger and know better.

Yes, this is a contentious issue but I have no doubt, if a referendum was held in the Country or even here on tibb,that, should capital punishment be brought back for murder being the question,the answer would be a resounding yes.

That feeling we have taken on board from all the wonderful and really passionate serious debate threads on tibb by a large and good cross section of tibb members.

We, the Jedward/Joey coalition are not going down the road of arrogance and elitism in expecting your votes for us, like the LaBear party.

We are aware that people have feelings, have strong emotions on issues and really have agreed with the policies we outline.I believe most of those members still agree with them and some of them are now not saying so but are gathering in the LaBear party because of the gimmicks and frills. None of which would sort out the issues we outlined as our policies.

So we The Coalition, respectfully ask for your vote, we hope you agree with our issues and once you decide to vote,I hope it is ourselves you feel most able to licence to go with our policies to put very important issues that are wrong, right.
