Council cuts - why Cameron has to go

Here is a guy, that fought for his country, and with all the cuts. Are you watching and reading, all you Tory lovers.

Who think we should have another five years of Cameron. Yes, councils are making cuts because of Governments severe cuts.

And this is what is happening

This country should hold its head in shame

The ones who should be holding their heads in shame, are the ones with memories so short they have already forgotten how LABOUR made the mess the Tories have spent the last five years fixing.*

Only a complete fool would so quickly hand the keys back to the one who crashed the car.

* With occasional help and plenty of obstruction from the Lib Dums, of course.

I fail to see what this has to do with Cameron directly??

The gentleman's local council want to move him to a care home as getting carers out to him on a daily basis is too costly for them.

So the headline stating he is being forced out his home is a bit OTT. He would be moved to a care home which at the age of 96 isn't too much of an issue I feel. Headline makes it sound like he will be left homeless which is not the case at all.

We have a Labour council that has refused to freeze council rates and help local people with lower bills and instead increased them.
On top of this they have cut services which could have better been managed instead and spent money on their own parties advertising.

Labour your a disgrace, you offer nothing but cheap rebukes and the threat of more borrowing to meet your insane ideas of what this country deems to be important.

Why won't you offer the people a referrendum on Europe Milliband !!!!!!!!

I remember the last mess the Tories got us in under Thatcher, - interest rates at 14.5% - Black Friday etc. - John Major who was he. Now we have the Bankers to thank the crises they created world wide.

Council rates have risen and cuts are still made.

As for the top 100 company bosses saying Labour would be bad if they were elected are talking out of their bottoms.

Our Tory councils (Borough and county) have managed to keep the tax frozen or only tiny increases (Police precept) and maintain services by good housekeeping and amalgamating departments where possible.

A simple example is refuse collection where Worthing and Adur boroughs combined the services, saved £millions and we still have our weekly bin collections.

Because Labour inherently don't like democracy and like to decide what's good for you.

In a vain attempt to stay in the Euro snake, the forrunner of the EURO. A policy that had full Labour support as I recall.

Paying no attention to facts - why Arthur has to go on the ignore list.

Seriously, anything to have a bash at Cameron with you Arthur. We get you are a Labour voter, but this bashing of Cameron is getting old news now. You vote for who you want to and we will vote for who WE want to vote for.

Mostly by Labour councils who cant manage finances properly.

I think the captains of sucessful industries that give jobs to many millions and pay taxes to provide the services that you value are in a better position to judge which political party is better for business than you are.

But.......it's a Labour council

This is also a council that has enough money to feel that is can offer £50,461 - £54,977 for the post of Assistant Headteacher for Inclusion Whatever the hell one of those is

There you go, bringing facts into a perfectly good anti Cameron rant.

Business bosses will be there whoever wins this election and they do have power to wield from taking on extra business and staff in the UK to getting p*ss*d off with Labour and taking it overseas.
Labour do not do Finance well - FACT whether council or government, they overspend and overborrow, yes depts need more money the NHS needs more money but it has to be paid for and they can never see that.
Whoever came to power in 2010 was left with a massive bill to settle and austerity has hurt and will go on hurting until we can manage our deficit whilst keeping core services properly financed and paid for.

I bet it's a council stuffed with PC non-jobs on fat salaries. That's where cuts can be made without hurting tax payers.

I wonder how many of Brent council staff are being paid more than the prime minister..

[nomadking]

The council are already contributing £350 a week to his costs.

For the past two years he has used his £50,000 savings to pay towards a £960-a-week live-in carer, while Brent Council contributed £350 a week.

Who borrowed more in five years than labour did in thirteen, who doubled the national debt, take a bow Gideon, labour might not be any good with the cash but don't think Dave and his chums are any better

You're great value, I'll give you that ...

Seeing as Gideon inherited massive financial liabilities, put there by Labour, is it your suggestion that he should somehow have shaken the magic money tree and paid for everything without use of borrowing or spending cuts?
