And so the tide begins to turn
As a new poll now suggests that "Dave" is losing ground in the polls, are we headed for a hung parliament. If so, do we really want Clegg to hold the balance of power?
Brown’s Party Narrows Conservative Lead in Poll, Observer Says

“It will not be easy for the Tories to gain the 117 seats they need for an overall majority, never mind the 140 they require for a working majority,” the Observer cited Robert Worcester, founder of Mori, as saying.

Anyone who wants even another 5 minutes of Brown and his grubby, lying, inept crew must be stark raving bonkers.

Re: And so the tide begins to turn
So, does anyone think "Gordon" and "Labour" will have a "majority" at the next "election"?
btw, the OP link states
Quote:
|
The poll showed the Conservatives had support from 37 percent of voters, compared with 31 percent for Labour and 17 percent for the Liberal Democrats.
|
In the 2005 General Election, Labour had 35.2%, Conservatives 32.4%, and LibDems 22% of votes cast, yet Labour had 158 more seats than the Conservatives.

Re: And so the tide begins to turn
It's a matter of choosing between two evils.
The same choice we always get.
Sweet F.A. and none.

Interesting - I wonder what the national debt will be after 50 years of these idiots...... It's really not that difficult to spend money - whether borrowed, printed or taken from taxpayers and that's just about the sum total of what Bliar and Brown have been good at. The difficult bit comes when all the debt has to be repaid and cuts have to be made but of course for some people that day will never come will it ...

Probably considerably worse than if it was a Tory one.

Re: And so the tide begins to turn
Well we could all be really radical and vote for the Liberal Democrats..But it would mean giving up some really deep seated prejudices.
