I think one sure way that Dave and his nasty party could win this election is if he were to grow a little square moustache. and have all his nasty men wear long black leather coats.

he'd probably even find many people salute him everywhere he goes too.

He alienates the non "Hard Working People" too much. he comes across that he don't like that section of society.

so that will lose him their support I reckon.

I'm not a religious man.
but even I'm starting to believe there's some truth in that God has sent us the sun to celebrate a new happy and thriving Britain coming up.

you can tell he's looking forward to the end of Dave's reign too.

Raising tax threshold does nothing for you? :confused:

Course it doesn't help poorer, working people mate. :rofl:

Some folks would clearly rather the economy slide into the abyss at the hands of the party who took us to the brink last time. One of two things will happen - either Labour will not honour many of their promises (just like they did 1997-2010) and destroy the recovery or they'll have to make cuts and will wind up hurting the people/services they claim they exist to help.

It makes me laugh that the party which claims to be so against privatisation within the NHS introduced so much of it via PFI etc. That fact that some people still fail to see that fact says as much about their grasp of reality as it does Labour's integrity.

They bang on about the top rate of tax being too low yet, IIRC, it's higher now than virtually the entire period they were in office, being changed only just before the last election. How's that for Labour duplicity? They raise pathetic stuff like this at election time because they know the usual suspects will fall for it.

To be fair the Tories seem to be committing more money than Labour.

The Tories will cut tax for lower and middling earners (personal allowance and 40% tax band wil be raised), cutting inheritance tax and then spending £8 billion more on the NHS and doubling free child care. Apart from the tax cuts a lot of it could be in a Labour manifesto.

SO LABOUR CREATED THE WORLD RECESSION!

Raising the Tax Threshold - we will being paying it back to the energy companies when they raise their prices again, along with the bus, train, VAT and other Stealth Tax's.

FIVE MORE YEARS OF AUSTERITY TO COME - THE POOR GET POORER, THE RICH GET RICHER.

LABOUR DOUBLED the debt from 2000 BEFORE any banking crisis. "Having" to borrow £40bn a year when the UK economy is supposedly doing well, is not a good sign.

The Tories have certainly made more than a few mistakes but when it comes to running the economy I'd rather see them in power than Labour's spendthrift loonies whose only answer seems to be higher taxes, more spending, more borrowing and more public sector jobs. Put them in charge again and see just how bad things can get.

Labour didn't create the world recession, they just mismanaged our economy, especially the banking sector Brown rewarded so often, to such an extent that we became one of the biggest casualties of it. If Labour can't be blamed for that I don't see how the current Govt. can be blamed for what they've had to do in order to deal with the aftermath. How easily some folks forget who doled out all those shiny gongs to failed bankers eh. If it had been a Tory govt. we'd never have heard the end of it would we. Odd that eh?...

Can everyone stop using unnecessary capitals in their sentences. This isn't Twitter or the comment section of the Daily Mail.

Too true.! I can't recall a single decent Labour govt. in my lifetime. Same old ineptitude and nonsense time and time again. The only difference was that Bliar was better at glossing over the sad reality of what they were up to.

If Labour get back into office some 'ordinary hard working people' are in for a very nasty shock one way or another.

Neither are the Tory's. Bankers are Tory's!
