You are falling into the trap of believing the myth that "they are all the same"
This only engenders increased voter apathy and is no help to anyone.
Of course, as most mainstream politics aims to occupy the centre ground, you will end up with similarities. But the ideologies of our main two parties are still at polar opposites. Although every few years one or the other of them may lose their way a little.
Believing that they are all the same often leaves you in the situation we are in now - coalition governments with a mandate no one voted for.
As Noam Chomsky put it - if you vote for the lesser of two evils, you still get less evil.

Considerably.

If they were different, I'm sure I'd spot it
In reality I fully believe you couldn't get a fag paper between their ideas. I'm probably cynical but I truly think that the faces at the front change but the machinery of government marches on inexorably with no thought for the population and what it wants/needs. Those at the front aren't even steering, they are figureheads. Wooden, unseeing, unfeeling, brightly-coloured and ultimately powerless.

Why would you want to get a fag paper between their ideas?
You're weird.

Fag papers are thin (roughly .002")
We'd use them as impromtu sacrificial feeler gauges when setting up grinding jigs, back in the days when I was a toolmaker.

Now guys & gals, there's LOADS of opportunities for strikethroughs there! There will be a small prize* for the most inventive.

*No there won't.
