Camerons Speech

I did actually catch his speech live, as I had tuned in to watch a programme about gardens, which because of the length of time he spoke, was sadly cancelled.
What he waffled on about just washed over me, but what did catch my attention was how badly his hair his receding, and how by the time he's forty five, he'll be almost bald. Which doesn't bode well for his chances, as the political pundits always tell us we never vote for anyone who is bald, ie: Kinnock and Hague.
I do think we as a nation are very fickle. Labour party conference, massive Labour lead. Week later, after Cameron's speech, even stevens in the polls.
Just who are all these floating voters that the opinion pollsters find, who are so easily swayed from week to week?
What did impress me though was that young Cyfr was up and posting on here at just after six!!!
Hopefully he was just coming in from another fresher's ball.

People can say what they like. It's what they actually end up doing that matters. Look at all the promises Tony Blair made!!!
Don't worry Garry, it was only cause he is coming home. (Probably already spent all his cash on dirty beer and women.)
My parrot makes a better speech after 4 pints of strong bitter.
Get rid of Cameron and bring back Maggie.
(Probably already spent all his cash on dirty beer and women.)
What a waste !!! Far better to spend it on dirty women and clean beer
tony who....?
Boy that man is so far up his own Arther that cave rescue cant find him. Last time I heard that many piles of cow pats landing an entire herd had a bug. The crud being fed by his own advisors is worth about as much as the beer pumps spill tray contents. G if you sat through that speech I hope you booked some therepy for it would be bad for you.

Like a true sleazy Tory
Cameron's views on education were absurd.
Methinks we should expect to see Brown in power for quite a while.
Was actually just after 5
Came home for the day. Going back in a bit.So people didnt like his speech? What about his policies? Only millionaires pay death tax, removing stamp duty so young people have more of a chance to get on the housing ladder?
He spoke from the heart and with such optimism. He announced policies when everyone was saying he had no substance, and now people are just attacking him for the heck of it, I suppose thats why Polititions target floating voters, because the others just attack the opposite no matter what they do!
This is stealth socialism I tell you...certainly more socialist than any of New Labour's policies.
stamp duty starts at what ? 250.000
not many young first time buyers can afford that
or am i in cloud cuckoo land
Its £125,000 it starts, which is indeed very high but thats how crazy house prices are going
So first time buyers tend to be much older!But ofc the stamp duty isnt just for first time buyers, it just removes the cost from anyone buying a home as its a pointless tax!
I was fairly impressed by his 'from the heart' way of speaking without notes or autocue but where it failed him was that he was actually very short on policy. He said a lot of 'we will reduce this/that, etc' but he didn't say an awful lot of 'how we will do it'. As usual, great presentation but lacking substance.
