Re: £260m 'wasted' in axing school building plans
 

Perhaps not, but in this world we have to make sacrifices to maintain the living standards that we want in my case it's coffee.:D

It always strikes me as strange though that the Tories always expect the poorer members of society to make the biggest sacrifices?
:confused:

Re: £260m 'wasted' in axing school building plans
 

Maybe if the Tories didn't have to continually send years cleaning up after Labour, then sacrifices would be necessary at all, but that's to much to ask when the first item on recipe of the Labour cake is first borrow two eggs:(

Re: £260m 'wasted' in axing school building plans
 

If, (as you believe), the Tories where so good, Labour would never get in, unlike you I am prepared to call all of them, because lets face it, none of them are of much use, if I was to put myself up, with all the best intentions, I would soon fall into line and be as guilty for adding to the bleeding of the system, but, unlike you, I see each one as a money raking pocket lining, Oh, so superior waste of truth.

They get away with it because we all wear blinkers, just different coloured blinkers, Oh, for a politician that actually wants to work for the people, (the closest I've seen ain't from your lot).
:cool:

You didn't have the good fortune to meet Ken Hargreaves then, the best MP Hyndburn has ever had bar none

Actually I sat next to him at an Ossy Cloggers annual Presentation Night, a pleasant enough guy, has the looks of a man going somewhere, but...

Results? The History books and even Google say very little for or against.

Please don't assume that I have been ignorant and uncaring all my life, this is an attitude I have developed especially for folk like you!
:D

Re: £260m 'wasted' in axing school building plans
 

Well that's nice to know Less, :D as for Ken he was never interested about going anywhere, he was quite happy doing what he does best an is still doing at the age of 70, caring for others, he is probably the most selfless person I have ever met in my life, and I'm proud to call him a friend

Re: £260m 'wasted' in axing school building plans
 

That is fine, I wouldn't call the guy, only his politics, is this yet another Tory, 'I can't win an argument so lets change the tack', type post after all I'm probably one of the poor class that will be expected by the Tory greedy to make the sacrifice, I had to under Maggie, (no work and get on yer bike 'cos we don't give a shining example attitude for young parents), please, please, prove me wrong under this bunch.
:)

Re: £260m 'wasted' in axing school building plans
 

This bunch as you call um are a different animal, because of the mess this country is in everybody will be affected in some way, even us Tories Less:p

Re: £260m 'wasted' in axing school building plans
 

EVEN us Tories Less:p

Damn those labourites, they must have done it on purpose just to bring you into the real world of suffering the rest of us live in!

I Know I know Less it flaming awful, they've no consideration for the blue half (or should I say blue and yellow:D) of society:rolleyes:

Re: £260m 'wasted' in axing school building plans
 

Couldn't we just blame it on the bankers? After all they seem to have a completely different set of rules to anybody else?
:confused:

Re: £260m 'wasted' in axing school building plans
 

This has been my mantra for a long time. And Oh for a politician that can tell us the truth.......and I don't mean their version of the truth....do they believe that by telling us what they think we want to know, we can be hoodwinked?
Do they think that we can't take the truth...that it would be far to scary for us?
I really don't know...but what I do know is that we are saddled with this mish mash of a government because great swathes of the population feel disenchanted, yes and disenfranchised by politics as it stands today...and it is the money grabbing, pocket lining, greedy politicians who are themselves, responsible for this sorry state of affairs.
I am sick and tired of each party slinging mud at the other party...because they can't see that they are all as bad as one another.

Recently even Graham Jones resorted to the playground tactics of 'they started it Miss'.

Although I did not vote in this election....I did haul myself to a polling station....I spoiled my vote because none of the candidates did anything at all to prove they were worthy of my trust in them......and I feel that there are many more folk out there who feel just the same as I do.

Re: £260m 'wasted' in axing school building plans
 

You could blame it on the Bankers...many folk have tried....but the last government cannot absolve themselves of some of the blame for what happened with the Banking crisis....it was they who took the regulatory aspect away from the Bank of England and placed it with the totally useless FSA.......They knew well before the brown stuff hit the fan what was going on(according to some sources 7 months before) and did nothing about it....They could have put measures in place to make sure that bankers did not get such obscene bonuses on the back of failures, but they did nothing, fearing that the Square Mile would up sticks and take the business elewhere.

The last government spent money it did not have.......projects were signed up to that they had no idea how to fund......they left us in a real mess.
So much for Prudence Brown and his 'No more boom and bust politics'.

I don't care what colour the party is that is in power...after all there is no Labout party anymore....socialist values went out of the window when New Labour came in the door....all I want is someone who will have the guts to do what is right by the people of this country.

And while we are talking about rules.......didn't the expenses scandal teach you that the vast majority of politicians felt that they could live by a totally different set of rules too?

That one sounds a bit out, I do about £3000 a year in diesel which I am sure is more than most and that is not 1/4 of my salary
