Last pre-election blog on this site

I have now been blogging for almost fours years on this site, but I have now decided to make a change of plans. At the time I started the blog, I was just a recent graduate from university and like the idea of a blog to discuss and the debate the issues of the day. Over time though I found that I am reluctant to give my views as anything that is controversial will be viewed harshly, especially since associate this blog with a particular party despite the fact the views are all my own, and not simply party rhetoric. In addition, now that I am out in the work force as well as the fact the recession has made me somewhat more inward looking, my views have turned somewhat to the right, although I am not as right wing as I was in high school and nor do I plan to take out a Conservative membership card or even vote for them. Rather I have found that no political party fully supports my views or even close to it, rather I support individual elements from each party, but nothing overwhelmingly. It is true when I started the blog in 2005 and still the case today that the Liberals are the party closest to my views, but I am still more pro free enterprise and believe in smaller government to a greater case than most Liberals do. I consider myself more a classical liberal than a social liberal, although I do not consider the two mutually exclusive as both seek the same end goals, just by different means. As such I have started an blog under a pseudonym so I can give my own political views without all the risks of being attached to a political party or anything else. I would like to thank all my readers who have read this blog and hope you continue to follow my future blog at monkeylovestofight.blogspot.com.
I choose this name since after dogs, monkeys are my favourite animal (I have many models in my room) and I choose the name loves to fight since I recall seeing somewhere about 5 years ago someone using this as their name and I thought it sounded appealing. This blog will not be listed on either liblogs or blogging tories, but if listed on any blog rolls, it will be an entirely independent one. This will be my last pre-election blog post and any future ones during the election will largely be discussing the issues as well as giving my electoral predictions, but it will not be giving my opinions on any of the issues.
