So we could end up with a completely different coalition Government or even a minority Government as opposed to a single party in overall control.
Also we've all heard the propaganda about how we must stay in the EU; or how we must get out of the EU; how Trident must go if the SNP are to support Labour; how we need to retain Austerity; or how we need to stop Austerity and start borrowing; how we need to reduce welfare bills or how we need to increase welfare spending etc etc etc....
So without getting into the politics of specific parties/policies etc, is the current election battle (and potential outcome) making you think differently about the future (positively or negatively) and is this in turn affecting your prepping priorities?
Non-political general erection thread eh? Tricksy!
Well, whatever happens I'm planning on buying a house in a tiny village somewhere (must have school and shop. Pub optional). Hoping to purchase some woodland too (but for business purposes rather than purely recreational).
Basically the way I see the outcome heading I need to be as self sustaining as possible as quickly as possible - and I just can't do that in rented accommodation...
