I'm surprised we haven't had a political discussion in a while actually...

If by a while you mean a month then yeah.

What political views do you support? I am a firm socialist and believe in a welfare state, equal opportunity and a self-managed economy. Unfortunately it seems Cameron is hell bent on destroying our left wing aspects and making the country capitalist, no matter what the cost is to the lower class and working class.

I support equal opportunity too, though I don't support welfare. Much.
My opinion has traditionally been that the government (on top of the basics such as law enforcement, jurisdiction, etc) should provided education and not much else. With public education you cannot claim there is not equal opportunity, for everyone's destiny is really in there own hands. If you fuck up at school the taxpayer shouldn't have to pull your weight.
Taxation, I think, is really just authorized theft. If James wants to buy pineapples from Bob - that is good, it is a deal between them. But then the government jumps in and demands a portion of money made by Bob (something IMO they have no right to do).
