All except Mancie, cashy:rolleyes:

Re: Leader of The Labour Party
 

Mancie, you are wrong.......and I don't know where you get the idea that I support this government.....is it because I recognise the need to budget according to the corporate means of GB...and this means we have to be more careful with where we place the money that is available? Silly me... I thought that was just common sense.
Is it because I recognise that Labour induced the kind of apathy that caused me to spoil my vote......the kind of situation where you realise that the elected party pay no attention to what the electorate want?
Is it because I can recognise that Labour took us into a war that was against the wishes of the electorate?.......and if these things had been done by a tory government I would be saying the same things.

You find me one of my posts where I have applauded either David Cameron or Nick Clegg.

I didn't say that I hoped that the new Labour leader would enthuse young people to vote.
This what I actually said......
........and if he does manage to inject some enthusiasm for politics into the younger members of society then he will be a worthy leader.
Don't put words into my mouth.



You tell me that I didn't have the guts to place my x in a box......you are wrong......I placed my x in all of the boxes.......why? Because I have the powers of sight, thought, and critical analysis and could find no candidate that I trusted to run this country. I cannot vote for a party in which I have no confidence...unlike you.
If that makes me a hypocrite, then I am guilty as charged. At least I am not a sheep.

IF this is true, and there's no reason to doubt it - after all, the Indie isn't a rightwing Tory scandal rag trying to stir up trouble for the new golden boy, then it shows the measure of the man. Surely, sound common sense would dictate that he should be looking for the very best people for the job, regardless of gender, rather than trying to artifically up the ratio of the women in the cabinet. Still, I'm sure all the "progressive socialists" on here will approve. :rolleyes:

well if this is correct, hes shot himself in the foot right away in my book.:eek:

Re: Leader of The Labour Party
 

Well, we shall see, Mr C. I genuinely hope that Ed's going to prove my dire predictions wrong and turn out to be a sound, common sense leader, who has the needs and aspirations of ordinary people at heart.

I doubt it...but I still hope.

It appears the Ballses are at loggerheads they both want the same job;)

Re: Leader of The Labour Party
 

Well he side footed to the left to get the job then shimmied to the centre to keep the Blairites on side so who knows.Or in my case cares.:rolleyes:

I don't watch strictly anyway.:D:D

Re: Leader of The Labour Party
 

I don't find anything harmful about having even more women in the shadow cabinet.. the Tories imposed a female candidate on Hyndburn...but at the end of a long economics meeting someone has to serve the tea and jammy dodgers.:)

Can you see Hapless Harriott with an apron on Mancie;)
