  • So they have £700 left to piss up the wall then.     As already said, food banks are by and large abused by those who don't really need them putting even further strain on those who actually need

    Would it help if folk living in council houses with empty bedrooms moved into smaller properties? Has anyone thought of that?

Tory for this kid

Why dismiss stuff like this? All it is doing is matching your opinions to policies. My view is that too many people just vote in a partisan way rather than taking a view of what a parties policies actually are. It has been my major issue with UKIP. Policies that change on an almost daily basis and the only consistent thing about them is their repeated mantra about leaving the EU and reducing immigration. But their policies to actually do that change almost daily. So basically a party that appeals to people who just want to moan about immigrants.

 

There isn't anything wrong with that in itself, but it is rather easy. Anyone could very easily form a very popularist political party that appealed to vast swathes of the populous if all I had to do was say things that vaguely struck a chord with tabloid readers. It isn't that hard. The policies behind it though would be harder to convince people about.

 

The problem for me is that for the past two decades there have been policies from most parties that I could support. But not a single party where every policy was something I could back. Which I suspect is the same for most people if truth be told. And that is why so many are disenfranchised. You used to be able to vote for a party based on ideals, but the Tories have become quite centric in many regards, Labour have abandoned their working mans mandate in favour of big business and the Lib Dems don't seem to have any backbone. The Greens are the new socialists, but with a whole load of extra mumbo jumbo and UKIP are the new right , but with a whole load of massive holes in their politics.

 

When you break it down it is thoroughly depressing. If for example you are socially centrist but economically left of centre you literally have no option. And I suspect there are a lot of people in that category. In fact you are screwed in the reverse scenario too. And in fact if you are economically to the right but socially centrist or left leaning again there isn't a viable option that doesn't involve some sort of hotchpotch and unlikely coalition.

Green (wtf?) with those fruit cake UKIP mob absolute non runners...........

 

Anyway I would still vote Communist then abolish voting..........

I got Green as well. It's interesting that there's a good chance they'd get a lot of support based purely on policy - and its just the lack of any faith in their organisation and ability to run a Government which puts people off.

 

I wouldn't be allowed in anyway as I'd vote to renew Trident. I do knit a mean yoghurt though!

I'll be voting for a candidate rather than a party.

The national result is unlikely to be changed by my vote but the selection of who to contact to flush out a response to some failure of a government department can really matter.

Horwich is going to ban anyone who votes for Julie Hilling.

the town or the mod?

Both.

Tory/labour split (+2.5). Greens(+.5) and lib dems (0) much the same a bit behind and ukip way behind at -10

Due  to the current financial situation caused by the slowdown  in the economy, the Government has decided to implement a  scheme to put workers of 50 years of age and above on early, mandatory retirement, thus creating jobs and  reducing unemployment.

This scheme will be known as  RAPE (Retire Aged People Early).

Persons  selected to be RAPED can apply to the Government to be considered for the SHAFT
 programme  (Special  Help After Forced Termination).

Persons who have been RAPED and SHAFTED will  be reviewed under the SCREW program  (System  Covering Retired-Early Workers).


A  person may be RAPED once, SHAFTED twice  and SCREWED as  many times as the Government deems  appropriate.

Persons  who have been RAPED could  get AIDS (Additional  Income for Dependants & Spouse)  or HERPES (Half  Earnings for Retired Personnel Early Severance).

Obviously  persons who have AIDS or HERPES will  not be SHAFTED or SCREWED  any further  by the Government..

Persons who are  not RAPED and  are staying on will receive as  much SHIT (Special  High Intensity Training)  as possible. The Government has always prided themselves  on the amount of SHIT they give to our citizens.

Should you feel that you do not receive enough SHIT,  please bring this to the attention of your MP who has  been trained to give you all the SHIT you can handle.

Sincerely –
 

The Committee for  Economic Value of Individual Lives (E.V.I.L.)

PS  - Due to recent budget cuts and the rising cost of  electricity, gas and oil, as well as current market  conditions, The  Light at the End of the Tunnel has been turned  off.

I had a leaflet through the other day from her/labour. I read it on the way to the cream bin in the back.

 

Is a vote for Conservative wasted in this neck of the woods?

We've had this already. It's a marginal. We used to be Tory then got lumped in with Red Atherton. Your vote will count, don't you worry about that. Get involved
