Winchester White Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 I think it's a sad indictment of the Tory Party that they can't/won't piss this election. To only beat Milliband by a few seats if any at all, says it's game over for that shiny faced cunt Cameron. Very true, they should have pissed it last time also. I don't think Cameron is too bad but he isn't great either. I think Osbourne has done a fairly good job with the economy but as a #2 (which chancellor is really) he is rubbish. Then you have Ed & Balls on the other side and wonder how they are even in the running, even though the pleb has had a good campaign considering. Quote

The fact that Balls has been kept out of this campaign says a lot. If that bloke ever gets control of our economy, we're knackered. Quote

We know what we're getting with the Tories, especially in a likely coalition with the Lib Dems. What's worrying are the players who aren't on show as Ed does his rounds, but who will pop out on Friday. The puppet masters will show their face. Why risk it? Quote

radcliffe white Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 Has Osbourne come out yet and said about the welfare cuts? He cant commit on where the 10b will come from Quote
no balls Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 Listening to milliband on the news earlier and I'm now getting concerned where the money will be coming from. It doesn't make me right wing like folk seem to automatically presume, it makes me think of my own circumstances. We are nearly all intrinsically selfish, it's just some don't want to admit it. Quote

frank_spencer Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 Has Osbourne come out yet and said about the welfare cuts? He cant commit on where the 10b will come from Unless he's going to charge £10bn for the next contract to a private company to hire unqualified folk to tell folk in comas to get back to work or despatch physiotherapists to asses mental health patients ability to function.

mickbrown Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 (edited) I don't think ANY party has said where the money will be coming from. They haven't because whichever way you dress it up it's going to piss some folk off. Labour - increase in taxes for the better off? Some folk won't vote for that. Tory - chop child benefit? Again, that'll hit some folk. Some people are ideologically wedded to a particular party - I'd suggest more people aren't. Like NB said we are selfish animals - we go with what suits us and our own circumstances. . Edited May 5, 2015 by mickbrown Quote

Like NB said we are selfish animals - we go with what suits us and our own circumstances. . Not everyone votes selfishly. Otherwise no party who stands on a higher taxation mandate would get a single vote from those in the higher tax bands, and we know that isn't the case. Personally I never worry about my own situation when considering who to vote for as that can change and policies almost certainly will. I feel more that I will vote for whichever party I believe has the right policies to improve our society and take it forward at the time. Not always easy to decide either. Quote

Not particularly. I'm a higher rate tax payer and would not be against that rate increasing to be honest. I'd certainly listen to any party proposing that. End of the day it is relative, it isn't like they'd be targeting me and my family specifically. It would of course depend on what they wanted to do with the money. If a party said we'd have a higher rate of tax for top earners to help bridge the NHS funding gap, I'd vote for that personally. Quote
