We could be a little more progressive. Instead of getting them to dig their own graves before being shot, take some hoodies off the dole to do it.

At least it's not as bad as when he tries to be blokey - that's pure blackboard fingernails. There's a video of him (not) answering a question from Peter Hitchens. He's acting very casually and throws out "mate" here and there.
Frankly, Les Dawson in drag was more convincing.
It will be a disaster if we have a hung Parliament imho
With Nick Slug being the kingmaker
We shall have all those fatuous ideas of the Limp Dumps
PR is idiotic - it lets in tiny fringe parties like BNP to have a huge say because they will forever hold the balance of power. Italy has PR and has had on average a new Government for every year since the War. No continuity. No stability etc
And as for joining the Euro ? Rubbish ! The Greeks are unlikely to honour their promises and repay their debts. They lied to get in and are a liability to the rest. The other PIIS countries are hopelessly inept too.
I only hope I won't be saying " I told you so " in a couple of years when the coalition falls apart.
But vote how you will folks

maybe the woman WAS a bigot?
everyone seems to think their opinion has value, no matter how stupid, or devoid of intellectual rigour.
we need to resurrect the notion of people "knowing their place".
if you leave school incapable of reading or writing, you should lose the right to vote or have an opinion.
people should be capable of proving their opinion, including the original source of the idea, backed by facts.
these plebs think they have an opinion. truth is, they are merely re-iterating something they "read" in a tabloid, or heard from "some bloke dahn the pub".
ask them to follow through their "logic", and they would end up contradicting themselves.
if there were an intelligence test before voting, we could eliminate chavs and idiots.
put them in their place, and get them to "earn" the right to have an opinion.
I feel sorry for these politicians, having to dumb-down complex issues into simple things these morons can understand. in addition to which, everyone has lost the concept of having principles that benefit society without necessarily benefiting them specifically, being as they are, totally self-obsessed about how these politicians will make them better off.
we could start be sterilizing any woman caught reading ""Hello" magazine, or with names Chantelle or Chardonnay.
Any man wearing a baseball cap should be shot on sight. Or anyone who says "wicked" to anything or flicks their fingers as a gesture of acknowledgement.
there. thats my manifesto.
I would like the politicians call more voters "idiots", "morons" and "bigots". Why suck up to these losers?
I agree and would rather see a strong win by one party.
No you wont, well not in 2 years because it will be over in less than 1 year in my view.

No they didn't say thisHere is what the tories said they will do.
They will raise taxes for the poor and drop them for the rich to get the UK working again.
This is presumption you dont know this to be the caseThe rich will then spend their money abroad buy foreign stuff and the poor will have to work extra hard to keep up with their payments.
So will Labour and the LibDems so no differenceThey will cut jobs and public services. The poor will bear the brunt of this policy as the rich will obviously be buying private services anyway.
Again there will be no difference under any other partyThe rich and poor devide will continue along with class. There will be more misery and suffering all around because we all know money alone doesn't make you happy. Money merely helps you live comfortably in misery.
I agreeThe policy we need is low interest rates to stimulate investment
How much less demand do you want ? We are in the worst recession in living memory, higher taxes will plunge us into an even worse situation. Tax revenue was never higher than when tax rates were lowered to 40%.. and high taxes to ease off demand and public investment to keep people in jobs maintaining social fabric of our society.
They will just move out of London or the UK and then the tax receipts will drop dramaticallyWe need to tax bankers and top earners for goodness sake. Not give them more incentives.
You sound jealousTories haven't got a clue - because they are inherently a bunch of snotty class conscious twits.
and even worse if Labour winIf tories win in another 20 years time the repurcussion of their policies will manifest them selves in a much broken and fragmented dissolving Britain.
and I fail to see how the LibDems can eitherI sincerely fail to see how Labour or Conservatives can do anything different?
At what cost ? Do we also need extermists in parliament ?We need proportional repesentation.
Do we ? In my view most people don't have a clue and have the mass mentality of DM readers. We need inspired leadership and a genuine willingness to serve. I would make it unattractive to be a politician with a maximum salary of £30K a year. Then you would not get the self serving hypocritical nonsense that comes from all politicians.We need voice of people to be heard
No they didn't say this
This is presumption you dont know this to be the case
You want to bet?
So will Labour and the LibDems so no difference
Yes but Libs pretty much said as such. Except they favour giving tax cuts to the poor and we need to tax the rich bankers and shareholders who have been saved by tax payers. You realise fundamentally there is a gross reallocation of resources taking place?
Again there will be no difference under any other party
Why have democracy and voting then?
I agree

It is all about leakages from the system. Give a poor man 10K a year and he will spend it on necessities in the local economy - evenly.
Give a rich man who doesn't need it and he will buy some import and money will leave the country. Ask who benefits? Where does the demand go?
UK has been bleeding for years precisely because of these silly policies.
As for tax revenue - what year and at what period of economic cycle was that study carried out? Moreover, you use tax to control aggregate demand and to budget Gov finances - taxes go up and down. This kind of quoting statistics without visibility of underlying key factors doesn't help. It skews policies.
We need taxes to rise - inevitable.
Do you drop taxes for the poor or the rich?
Do you raise taxes on the low earners or high earners?
They will just move out of London or the UK and then the tax receipts will drop dramatically
Well let the inefficient greedy mis-managing bankers go elsewhere then! Structural changes are acceptable when it comes to manufacturing which we are craving for. Why not let market forces work on finance industry? Why bail them out?
Why have one rule for manufacturing and another for service industries. This is a tremendous daft policy. The void will be filled for sure. We will then subsequently build a better and more secure well governed balanced financial and manufacturing base.
You sound jealous
Class is the problem in this country. I am not jealous. I know my station and where to get off.
and even worse if Labour win
Probably...
and I fail to see how the LibDems can either
At what cost ? Do we also need extermists in parliament ?
More scare mongering. We live in a civilised democracy. Extremists are in the minority and if they are heard they'll become less so.
Do we ? In my view most people don't have a clue and have the mass mentality of DM readers. We need inspired leadership and a genuine willingness to serve. I would make it unattractive to be a politician with a maximum salary of £30K a year. Then you would not get the self serving hypocritical nonsense that comes from all politicians.

You mean like the one we had with Thatcher and Blair... Sort of dogmatic - presidential style. Yes the people do indeed like strong leaders so they say. Leaders in Europe are less worried about their international standing and more interested in their own countries and governments.
Sorry to be sarky but I really don't see what the fuss is about a hung parliament. It could be bad and it could also be much better. We certainly need change. We know what Labour have done and will continue to do.
Here is what the tories said they will do.
They will raise taxes for the poor and drop them for the rich to get the UK working again. The rich will then spend their money abroad buy foreign stuff and the poor will have to work extra hard to keep up with their payments.
They will cut jobs and public services. The poor will bear the brunt of this policy as the rich will obviously be buying private services anyway.
The rich and poor devide will continue along with class. There will be more misery and suffering all around because we all know money alone doesn't make you happy. Money merely helps you live comfortably in misery.

We need to tax bankers and top earners for goodness sake. Not give them more incentives.
Tories haven't got a clue - because they are inherently a bunch of snotty class conscious twits. New schools with public money. Schools will go the same way as the health service - undermined at lower quality... There will be pockets of excellence whilst rest of nation suffers in shoddy below par investment in schools. School entry system is ****e with all the league tables. Really really badly screwed up with all the political tempering.
If tories win in another 20 years time the repurcussion of their policies will manifest them selves in a much broken and fragmented dissolving Britain.
I sincerely fail to see how Labour or Conservatives can do anything different?
We need proportional repesentation. We need voice of people to be heard. We need balance in parliament. We need change.
This tune popped into me head for some reason... Let's take a trip down memory lane...
the fact u asked in your rep what counts as poor in money terms..its all about breeding my friend. a poor person with lots of money, is still poor
yes its about class. just because talking about class has become politically incorrect doesnt mean its still not very real.
