Re: 2015 UK General Election Thread

Firstly, The Gaurdian is a Tory supporter, that's why it has those figures.

And l would not believe anything coming from a Conservatives mouth. They think of only one thing - themselves.

The biggest laugh l read was about sexy Cheryl Cole, when she mentioned the Mansion Tax. The Tories begged her to join them (probably to ask for a donation) But, she quickly replied that she would NEVER vote Tory

Look at it this way. Why do you buy a Mansion - when you have a only a small family, can you live in the all rooms

Re: 2015 UK General Election Thread

And why would you think that anyone believes anything that comes out of Labour's mouth, or the Liberals? Every party is the same, talk a good talk in the election run up but deliver naff all on their election manifestos.

"The Guardian is a Tory supporter"........

Best line of the 21st Century so far.

Arthur, I know you and Mr. Reality very rarely visit the same place, but surely even you realise that the Guardian are so anti-Tory, they make you look even-handed?

The "Mansion Tax" isn't on Mansions (although some will be included) - it's on property with a value of £2 million or more, which covers a number of 2,3, or 4 bedroom homes in London.

And as for Cheryl whatever-her-latest-surname-is, she is the one who has hinted she may not vote Labour over their proposals for this tax.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/cele...f-me-over.html

But I am sure you won't let facts affect your views.

Dave gets away with cutting everything by people saying he's had to because of Labour.
when Dave sells their granny. they'll tell granny that she should take it up with Labour. and to hurry up the taxi's waiting.

No not everything is Labour's fault, but most of the major issues we're suffering from right now certainly are either their fault or they're issues of such huge importance to them that they somehow never managed to sort them out during their 13 year reign and that wonderful boom they spent the whole time telling us about and even more of our money propping up. Odd that eh?

On the other hand, maybe that's largely why we are where we are - they spent/committed us to/wasted vast sums of money we didn't have and left the difficult job of dealing with the aftermath, including the huge fallout from Iraq (yet more Labour lies) to the next govt. and the rest of us.

Just like YOU do.

BTW i suggest you find someone to read you posts prior to them being posted. That way you may god forbid post actual facts not the bull excreta you do at the moment.

Arthur what's your take about Labour's secret Hedge fund manager and his private healthcare company who they tried to keep secret ??

Re: 2015 UK General Election Thread

More bad news for Ed "Two Kitchens" Miliband:

Quote:
Following news last weekend that Ed Miliband’s approval rating had dropped to a 33-month low, YouGov’s latest survey for the Sunday Times finds the trend continuing, to its lowest ever score. Having sunken to -53 in January 2012, when Labour received criticism for adopting austerity measures and questions abounded over the future of its leadership, Ed Miliband’s rating has now dropped slightly below that level, to -55.

Nick Clegg, the Deputy Prime Minister, now enjoys a nominally higher rating than his Labour rival, on -54. This could easily change next week, but it has happened only once before, during Ed Miliband’s previous all-time low on January 20, 2012 when Nick Clegg scored -50.

Re: 2015 UK General Election Thread

And you notice that apart from a short period, Cameron has been polling better than Miliband all Parliament.

I just really don't get voters. They think Miliband is doing the worst out of the 3 main Party leaders, yet people still want to vote Labour. I know they have their die hard core of Labour voters, but Tories and Liberals have those as well. Outside of that hardcore bunch though, I cannot see any reason to vote for Labour.
