You're going to want to google the definition of peasants.

So the problem is our policies. What's the problem exactly? If we are going to discuss this like adults lets do that.
Didn't I make it clear in the OP which of their policies I am against?

The conservative party are the slightly more, old school / anti-rights sort of party IMO
Oh really?

No it isn't, and it has nothing to do with democracy
You can't have democracy without guns.

The same can be said of America in many areas, and while you say we have a nanny state because we have a healthcare system, we say we have a proper welfare state which you do not.
And you'd be wrong in that claim, you have lower quality healthcare, you pay higher taxes, you can't choose your own healthcare plans, the government operates death panels that decides who gets a procedure and who doesn't, and you have higher malpractice rates than the US.

I don't know enough about this to argue, but ultiamtely I'm anti-gun, so I imagine that's where I'd be if I read into it.
I'm just going to leave this here, it proves that banning guns increases the crime rate and unbanning them decreases it: http://www.justfacts.com/guncontrol.asp

Since you like to use wiki...

Though "peasant" is a word of loose application, once a market economy has taken root the term peasant proprietors is frequently used to describe the traditional rural population in countries where the land is chiefly held by smallholders. It is sometimes used by people who consider themselves of higher class as slang to refer pejoratively to those of poorer education who come from a lower income background.

Really.

So you're saying that without carrying a gun I can't vote?!

And you'd be wrong in that claim, you have lower quality healthcare, you pay higher taxes, you can't choose your own healthcare plans, the government operates death panels that decides who gets a procedure and who doesn't, and you have higher malpractice rates than the US.

Why can't we choose our own healthcare plans? Do you know anything about how it works in the UK? We have a great healthcare system that costs us very little. Don't like it over here? Go private.

Then why don't you like it? Instead of asking your doctor what your issue is.... you google symptoms and confirm YOUR Diagnostic with him... that's not how healthcare works.... the doctor runs tests, and tells you what issues you have.

Without guns, there would be nothing to stop the government from taking total control.

Studies show that ObamaCare is ALREADY lowering the life expectancy.

In the USA...
They used graphs for England too, and it showed an increase in murder since guns were banned.

People in Africa have more freedom than the British.
Define "freedom" and "people in africa" please.

In any case, you're obviously busy trolling for your own private amusement, that or else you're drunk, high, confused or extremely stupid and ignorant (possibly all of the above), because nothing in any of your posts in this thread makes the least iota of sense.

Democracy.

Increase in murder or increase in gun death?

Because there has been a global increase in murder since guns were banned in the UK, but if you look at gun deaths in the UK they have decreased, as have incidents involving guns, and then check statistics comparing gun death in the UK to the US.

Most of the people who are shot in the US are criminals. They were either shot by other criminals in a gang war, by police, or by legally armed civilians.

Oh BS. OP is one of the usual Euro-hating suspects masquerading as a new poster. The differences between the US and Britain are superficial and less than the differences between 2010 USA and 1960 USA.

Did anyone know that a Gandhi said his biggest influence was Brit John Ruskin?

Exactly, the UK and the USA are fundamentally the same, with minor differences.
