For Labour, the more people that are dependent upon the state, the better. That's why they hate success, business and those who work.

The other thing is that even with the SNP doing so well they will side with Labour and before this poll a Tory/LibDem coalition doesn't have the numbers to form a majority Government.

At this rate it's looking likely it will either be a small Labour majority or Labour propped up by the SNP on a vote by vote basis.
There was a caveat at the bottom of the article....

Yep ,this is why there is such an uproar now from people Labour made dependant on benefits during their last stint in power
,under the cons people are encouraged to support themselves and not be reliant on the state ,they build an economy based on that and that is why I am much better off financially under conservatives

Better economy perhaps, more people working... well if you include zero hour contracts and the like to manipulate figures. There should be significant shame over employment laws twisted in that manner (no I'm not a labour voter)

Lets not forget those deemed 'fit to work' who very clearly are not, but hey when you work to targets...

IDS needs taking out back and shooting - asshole

Yes but even there Miliband has improved.

I think the question will be if the UKIP vote collapses in favour of the Tories or not. The fact the SNP will prop up Labour either way means it's going to be hard for the Tories to get a working majority with the Liberal Democrats that over turns that block.

This is going to messy.

Re: 2015 UK General Election Thread

If the rest of the UK majority vote for the Tories but Labour get power by ganging up with the SNP it will be messy.
