Bipartisan?

. . . Judge for yourself.

Democrats made up 55 percent of John McCain's political partners over the last two Congresses, including on the tough issues of campaign finance and global warming. For Obama, Republicans were only 13 percent of his co-sponsors during his time in the Senate, and he had his biggest bipartisan successes on noncontroversial measures, such as issuing a postage stamp in honor of civil rights icon Rosa Parks.

I'm overjoyed that the most capitalist, market-driven nation on the planet has turned socialist and is nationalising the banking industry! :)

"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of 'liberalism,' they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened." - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Prescient, eh? But never fear. The pendulum swings both ways - much as many MPs in your land. :o}
