The streets of London paved with gold, well you'd think so, one council in London are putting a family in a mansion (after a full refurbishment) costing millions, seems money's no object really. I'll try and find a link it was mentioned in a number of the Sundays

I just don't care any more. As I have said so many timers before, Europe will see to it that the UK is dead in the water - in or out of the German run Eurozone.

Re: How would you vote in a General Election?
 

I totally understand where you're coming from.

But if we want future generations to have the freedom, and benefits we've enjoyed by being British, we should care, and fight just as hard as our forefathers did, so this country remains free, and independent.

Re: How would you vote in a General Election?
 

The trend on heres seems to be more or less intentions of voting labour with UKIP being an alternative or maybe a protest vote (taking into account local politics)..Labour are ahead in National polls but that is usual in a half term government.. to me the Tories will get the hardcore 35-37% they always have.. Lib-Dems no more than 14% and UKIP could get around 9%..but that does not give UKIP many seats in a General Election.

Once again it will be a two horse race.. Mr Ed Milliband will not win that race.. if labour go into the next Election with Ed at the helm they will not gain a majority.

In case there's any interest here's a site updated regular by the latest national polls

Re: How would you vote in a General Election?
 

The way Cameron, Osborne and their posh boys are going there wont be a bloody conservative party ....they should be called the UTA party

Couldn't agree more with what Garinda says here...
Your vote is important - whichever party it is for...let your voice be heard.

The boundary commision are supposedly independent.

Though Labour will more likely suffer, because of the changes that will take place.

Still, if three consecutive Labour governments hadn't allowed the expense abuses to carry on unimpaired, until details were actually leaked to the public via the press, we'd still have 650 MPs, and we wouldn't be losing 50, because of the ensuing public outrage.

So some would say they only have themselves to blame.

Oh you are a silly sausage, aren't you?

You could just as easily have pressed Labour, if you'd wanted to vote for a party with a high-ranking Lord's niece who acts as stand-in Leader, and a shadow cabinet filled with public school educated politicans, most of whom also send their children to selective, or private schools.

An elite band of Oxbridge educated careerist politicans, who haven't the foggiest idea about what a real day's hard graft is like, or the struggles faced by millions of ordinary men, and women in this country.

Ya long gone are the days of Bessie Braddock and beer and sandwiches at number 10 for the Unions, its Champers and caviar in west end restaurants now

Re: How would you vote in a General Election?
 

A usual, you speak with insight and wisdom, Garinda. But, like you, having seen so many elected governments promise us everything and give us nothing, then line their own pockets whilst the populace founder in the mess they have created (Kinnocks and Blairs, in particular), it is becoming increasingly difficult to form a creditable choice given the chance at any forthcoming election.

Re: How would you vote in a General Election?
 

Errr... don't recall Neil Kinnock ever being Prime Minister.

Re: How would you vote in a General Election?
 

Thank the lord for that. I never said he was. He was still part of a lamentable labour adinistration though. Whatever, the obnoxious, ginger headed loudmouth and his kin have still profited from his time in politics,
