Britons cold shoulder Bush
By John Rentoul

31 October 2004

Most Britons believe the world will be a safer place if John Kerry defeats George Bush on Tuesday, according to an exclusive poll for The Independent on Sunday. While 56 per cent think the world will be safer if Mr Kerry wins, only 24 per cent think it will be safer under Mr Bush, while 20 per cent do not know.

The poll, carried out by Communicate Research last Wednesday and Thursday, finds that an overwhelming 74 per cent think Tony Blair's support for George Bush in Iraq is "bad for Britain". Only 19 per cent agree it is "good for Britain". And, by a margin of 60 per cent to 33 per cent, the public opposes the Government's decision to move British troops to the US zone in Iraq.

1. And the freeping rightwingnuts STILL think the world supported bush &
his bullshit invasion of Iraq. NOW most of the world doesn't even support the SEPARATE "war on terra".

2. our closest ally. nice job. bushco couldn't even keep themselves in power.
they had every opportunity to manipulate everything, if they had just figured out how to do the whole thing... now they're rushing to manipulate everything at the last minute, and everything is falling apart around them.
