Are any of you involved in RL politics?

This could possibly be the one game that has any relevance to a RL parallel so, is anyone here involved in anything political in real life?

Im a British National Party member

Why?

Why not?

I'm thinking of going into politics after I finish my school, but I first want to join the army and after that maybe.

No, on the grounds that you can tell when a politician crafts falsehoods: their lips move.

I Vote. That's about it for me.

I'm a LDD-member in Flanders

that's just imo the greatest part of the game: using lot's of words while actually saying none at all, and making ppl, who don't understood shit of what you just said, believe that you are a smart and competent man

Indeed, which is why I tend to vote for the candidate I find least morally repugnant.

like my favorite quote from Ronal Reagan:

Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first.

always makes me smile when I think of that

Gave me a chuckle! Still politicians would do it for free! :p

I complain alot about Gordon Brown, does this count as political activity? I also listen to The Clash now and then.

lol, well my plans are the same as Shadows, to join the army then get into politics.

Hey Shadow, if I give you 20 Gold, wanna start a RL political party with me? lol.

I really have no idea which party I want to join though. I was thinking about the Green Party, then remembered that I actually want to get somewhere in politics. I shall just have to disguise my Green motives

I joined the monster raving loony party awhile ago and iv never looked back. Which reminds me, Join the Loony Party, you get a teeshirt.

only if we call it "the party for the preservation of capitalism and the destruction of communist pigs" aka the PFTPOCATDOCP-party

our main goal: start a crusade against communist and ban them all to gulags.

I've been involved in the "service delivery" end of British foreign policy.

lol shadow. I can just imagine the campaign leaflets now...!

Will, what does that even mean?

he's the guy responsible for transporting important stuff of the British government, like hard disks with lots of names on and stuff...

Or maybe the job doubles as "high velocity metal delivery between long waiting periods"?

lol, i heard we lost a USB stick with data about something or other last night on the news. Surely no gov can be that incompetent to continually lose information like that on such a regular basis? It's just not even possible, considering they are always so worried about their image, they just wouldn't allow the continual loss of data like that..

At least someone understood my euphemistic doublespeak.

Don't mind me, were I in the services I'd likely be some REMF

I was a member of the youth council in my town for a bit until I realised that after three years we'd accomplished next to nothing, so I got bored and left.

Have any of you seen that UK Youth Party thing they do now? I watched them in the House of Commons, all "debating" as such, with people aged 6 - 18, lmao.
