Re: General Election Tomorrow

Cyfr and myself were discussing this at the weekend.

Nowadays I think it's certainly in his favour to be leader of the council, as people in Ossy think if you're going to have a councillor you...

Re: General Election Tomorrow

Before the '97 election, and fearing high taxation, Paul Daniels threatened to leave the country if Labour were elected to power. A statement which probably helped gain Labour quite a few votes.

Re: General Election Tomorrow

I take it back, perhaps I am partisan.

The only MPs I've ever chatted to socially at parties, and the only ex-PM I've ever had a private dinner with at the Carlton Club, have been Conservative,...

I am.

I've never been a member or affiliated to any political party, unlike some.;)

A 'crime map'?

Is that the Conservative policy he was advocating in yesterday's interview?

Re: General Election Tomorrow

That's odd, I thought I'd read a post of your's the other day saying you'd been a member of the Conservative party since you were sixteen. I appologise if I'm mistaken.

I made no mention of any...

As you point out, unlike your good self, I'm not a member of any political organisation or party.

I will continue to criticise, or praise, whoever, and whatever, I see fit.

Re: General Election Tomorrow

Oh trust me I do.

I watched Cameron being interviewed on a tour of leafy Surrey yesterday.

He was being interviewed by the BBC about crime, and the man from the Beeb told him the latest...

Re: General Election Tomorrow

The Conservatives have actual policies?

Rather than just sound bites about caring, sharing, and communities?

I think if you asked the man or woman in the street what their main political concerns are their answer would be immigration, and the continued interference of Europe in British affairs.

I acknowledged that when Shakermaker remarked on the same thing.:D

By the way it isn't my list, it was copied from the Labour website.:D

If it wasn't for the education reforms introduced by consecutive Labour governments in the last century, you'd have left school at twelve, nevermind had the opporunity to attend university.;)

Who?

Certainly not me.

I've always posted that I'm not a member of any political party, nor have I ever been, unlike some other people on this forum.

I've always voted for whoever I...

Agreed, but couldn't be bothered to edit the ones that I really think have made a positive difference to the country.

Lies, damned lies, and statistics they may be, but they still make a hell of...

I'd much rather be locked in a polling booth with the people who've voted Labour, than any of the other sorry groupings.:D

Besides thinking Greg Pope will continue to be the best M.P. for Hyndburn, I've just remembered a few other reasons why I'm more likely to vote for him than anyone else.

1. Longest period of...

The biggest threat to the Tories is the new satirical programme Headcases.

Man of the people, Dave, soon reverting to type away from the cameras. Cameron and his snivelling little fag, Osborne,...

Re: General Election Tomorrow

If the election was tomorrow, I'd have to ignore national politics and vote for who I thought would be the best M.P. for Hyndburn.
