Oi! My thread has been hijacked (like many others before it) and turned into a Labour Trash-a-thon :)

Because he did not U-turn because he had a change of mind, that he realised the policies were unfair and dangerous. He U-turned because he was made to.

Plus:

Very significant spending cuts to come, think tank warns

The thread title does not specify who is the most dangerous so we're at liberty to nominate whilst staying on topic. :D

So you just read the thread title and not the text of the first post, fair enough :) Didn't realise it worked like here ...

Hugh, what is your point? You agree with Osem and the Mirror on calling Tories Toffs?

If this is just a wind up, fair enough but really, what are you trying to say? Spell it out ..[COLOR="Silver"]

Does it matter why? He did, which if nothing else, shows he listens, which is more than anyone in Labour ever did. You should change your Avatar to 'keep left' it would be more apt.

I thought I was on your block list? Nice that you are debating the points and not getting personal ;)

Yes because then he could call Osborne an out of touch Tory toff who couldn't care less about ordinary working people, blah, blah, blah. You just can't please some folks evidently... ;)

Osem is stuck in the past (with his beloved Labour party). You just don't call people "Toffs" anymore ..

Osem then commented on the above, intimating that if Osborne had not listened to what people wanted, you (ianch99) could then call Osborne an out of touch Tory toff - he himself did not call Tories toffs.



You then replied with Once again, Osem did not call Tories toffs, he intimated that you would.

I then provided evidence that the person in charge of the last Labour Election Campaign, and the main Labour supporting newspaper, had called Tories toffs, to rebuff your statement that no-one called people Toffs anymore.



Hope this helps...

It's called balanced debating - allowing both sides to air their views... ;)
