Talking Vote For Me!!!

PMSL - I just got this bit of spam mail and believe me I'm tempted. Anyone want to join in??

Dear Applause Store Member,

Applause Store is extremely excited to be involved in a revolutionary new show geared towards finding a new MP who will truly speak for the people.

Have you ever sat around with friends or colleagues and discussed how badly (or how well) you think the country is run? Would you like to help shape the way Britain is run? Do you have strong views about the government? Would you like to hear your views heard at the next general election? Well now you can Live on ITV1!

VOTE FOR ME is the new ITV1 live show which will help find potential MP to stand as an independent candidate in the next general election.

The host Jonathan Maitland (Question Time) joined by panelist Kelvin Mackenzie, John Sergeant and Lorraine Kelly (GMTV).

The show will be transmitted from South Bank at The London Studios (LWT), Upper Ground, London, SE1 9LT.

These exclusive audience tickets have just been released and are expected to go very quickly. If you would like to come along and give your opinions and truly have a voice, please call Applause Store on **** *** **** as soon as possible (office hours 10:30am-18:00pm).

Lets help to make Britain a true Democracy!
Wadduya reckon???

UB

Easy.... take [UKIP plus (Conservatives minus ID Cards)] then just add in some environmental policies to do with fisheries, countryside management and release of non indigenous predators and you are there!

ajm - do you want to come along and make you views on cats more widely known? At least we'll be able to say we got off or ***** and did something rather than moaning that there is no point taking an interest or voting (like some).

I wouldn't be able to make London during the week unfortunately, but it does sound quite amusing! What is the format of the show? As a ticket holder do you stand a chance of being put forward as the MP?

With regard to the cat situation I am actually planning some action.... I think I may be able to secure a government grant to research the situation (albeit via a slightly tenuous route ) so all the cat nutters on here will be paying me with their taxes to build a case against their irresponsible ownership. Sweet!

If I get elected you can expect to "vanish" along with all my other political opponents!

I'm digging some shallow graves in the middle of Bodmin Moor ready in anticipation!

It'll be officially recorded as "Bodmin Big Cat" deaths!

ajm, how disappointing, I was expecting to be eaten alive by piranha's, James Bond stylee. Mind you, to look the part, you'd have to be stroking a cat while sat in a big chair, I can see why this wouldn't appeal to you

So they just get the audience to fire questions to help put together a manifesto for some "Big Brother" type participant to try and learn? B*llox to that then! I wouldn't trust my vote with any old random.... they would have had to earn my trust after months of consistant scoobynet political posting!

I don't know what the format is. All I know is that I'm just 'a member of the audience'. Shoot, I can sit at home and be that!! Couple that to the fact that it's an ITV1 production, and you have to conclude that it's a load of old bollix.

I bet you will get the chance to have your say UB.

Don't forget to tell us when the show will be broadcast. I am relying on you to tie them in knots and force them to answer a straight question on pain of being made to look a fool if they don't

Not much of a challenge when Loraine Kelly is one of them!

UB, lol at you talking yourself out of it, so as not to encroach upon too much tv-watching time.
take a casio portable into the show with you, so if it gets too boring you can check out the latest happenings in albert square....

you got my vote. talk about hunting horses, moles, cats and ps (ambulance dodger) lewis and i'd have to watch it too.

good luck
