General Election on 21:10 - Apr 26 by rock1n | Yeah because I meant everyone didn't I? Jeez, I'm making a point about Tory mentality - if you want to get on in life they will support you e.g business friendly, lower taxes etc. If you want to sit on your arse then the tories are not the party for you.

Personal allowance has shot up under tories Look I don't want to be going over old ground but there's a thing called the deficit which was 11% of GDP you'd have to be a corbynista not to see spending had to be curtailed Recent borrowing is around 50bn it was 160bn when labour were in. The tories historically have to take the tough decisions they take the wrap even your mate Jeremy would have cut spending after 2010 because he would have been forced to | |

Me too I'm sick of all this ordinary hard working families versus privileged elites shit that the Tory Party are spouting. No doubt it'll work though - as it did for UKIP. | |

General Election on 21:00 - Apr 26 by exiledclaseboy | Oh f*ck you've done it now. Bluey hates nurses. She'll be a money grabbing bitch or something. |
Don't hate nurses, ECB. Far from it. The truth behind Danielle is far more interesting. She's a friend of Shelley Asquith, a NUS bod who just happens to be the girlfriend of shadow cabinet minister Richard Burgon. Said Danielle Jade just so happens to have as her name in her twitter profile as "Danielle Vote Labour", describing herself as being an activist and loving Labour party. How utterly coincidental that this friend magically happened to be present at a visit by Corbyn and able to speak to the BBC. EDIT: Can't be arsed watching the video. Her comments may be valid, may not be. Who knows? I'd give any of her comments far more respect if they weren't coming from a Labour supporting activist... [Post edited 26 Apr 2017 21:37]

So she's the friend of someome who knows someone else who's prominent in the Labour Party (although I've never heard of him)? Well then it's clearly another on of those BBC lefty conspiracies I keep hearing about. I can only repeat - f*ck my f*cking eyes. Incidentally where do you get this stuff from? Do you keep a file on everyone who may be a bit of a leftie in case you have to quickly discredit them for doing leftie things? Or do you just keep refreshing the tiresome Guido Fawkes' website until he does it for you? Either way, it's not healthy. Labour aren't going to win, Bluey. Not even close. In fact they're going to be annilhiltaed. Give yourself an hour off trawling the web for anti-leftie stuff. It'll do your blood pressure good. [Post edited 26 Apr 2017 21:56]

Reckon Bluey gets his info from CCHQ. The kind of information they provide when they're not booking and paying for hotel rooms for bus loads of activists. | |

General Election on 20:45 - Apr 26 by exiledclaseboy | F*ck me, Wayne. Do you really think he went out if his way to promise the Communist f*cking Party something to persuade them not to stand in the handful of f*cking seats it would have contested? "Tell you what, comrade, you lot stand down and pledge your 200 votes per seat to labour and we'll erect a statue of Vladimir Ilyich in Whitehall and abolish organised religion while ensuring the workers own the means of production." F*ck my f*cking eyes. I'm no Corbyn fan but by Christ he doesn't half make some people take leave of their senses. Labour could form an electoral pact with Ant and Dec and they'd still lose this election. |
I just found it intriguing that this is the first time since 1920 that they are not contesting, and Corbyn isn't the only left leaning Labour leader. That's all. Just an observation. By god you're very short tempered...Perhaps Loyal can sort you out with a tit wà nk | |

Philip Hammond has announced that the debt to GDP ratio will rise to an “eye-watering” 90.2% in 2017-18, a seven point increase on previous forecasts, the highest debt level in half a century. National debt by the end of parliament will be £1.945 trillion. Deficit The Tory manifesto promise of a surplus in 2019/20 has been abandoned, they are now seeking to balance the books by an undisclosed date in the next parliament. Borrowing Borrowing forecasts for 2016-17 have soared to £68 billion, up £13 billion from the previous forecast in March. Borrowing will be £59 billion in 2017/18, £21 billion more than forecast. In 2018-19 the government will borrow £46.5 billion, a massive 117% increase from the £21.4 billion forecast in March. Hammond plans to borrow £118 billion more this parliament. In 2008 George Osborne told the Commons: “What [Brown/Darling] did not admit is that he is going to double the national debt to £1 trillion, and that a national debt that has accumulated over centuries is gonna double in just five years. That is the bill for Labour’s decade of irresponsibility.” | | | |

....but if we are being fair we would recognise that during that time the unforseen European Sovereign Debt crisis in the Eurozone (the market we have been tied into and stifled by) has led to growth grinding to a halt in the countries that make up the largest part of our export market. | |

The deficit in basic terms is the gap between spending and revenue The banking bailout is debt that has nothing to do with the annual deficit. That's just a fact neathjack, I can't say it any plainer. | |

No shit that's what the deficit it. The fact is that the economic crash caused by the banking crisis had a profound effect on the deficit due to lower tax returns and increased interest payments. It sure as hell wasn't Labour "overspending" that caused the massive increase in the deficit in circa 2008. | | | |

Personal allowance shot up under the coalition. It was one of the numerous LibDem policies that government enacted which the LibDems naively allowed the Tories to take credit for while equally naively allowing themselves to be made the fall guys for the coalition's more unpopular and swingieng policies. | |
