[Politics] The General Election Thread

[Pretty pink fairy]

Truly alarming, but hardly surprising given that you have previously stated that thick people should not be given the vote either. But do keep going, because it is important for people to be fully aware of the type of society you and your ilk would want.

Aktion T4 springs to mind, quite alarming coming from a Lib Dem supporter in Plymouth

But the sad fact is that in order for me to stop paying for your internet access you would, for the first time in your life, have to stop whining about what other people have got and how you're not getting what is rightfully yours,show some pride, get off your lazy useless arse and do something.

I think your mate Farage winning a majority on December 12th is more likely than that.

Too bad, Harry. Thankfully I am not one of your students.
Seriously though, there is little point in banging away going over point after point after this has been done ad infinitum on here.
Those who disagree will continue to disagree, and quite honestly, there has been so much coverage in the media about the Labour Party manifesto pointing out the dangers, shortcomings, and unrealistic spending plans that if you and others want to read about it, go ahead.
Just because I have neither the time nor the inclination to comment further, it doesn't mean to say those problems do not exist.

Dear Block F,

Do you think that government finances are like a household, and that taxes are its income? Do you believe that if the government spends more than it receives in taxation it must borrow to meet its spending commitments? If it borrows too much will it go bust? Will the Labour party spending plans mean that the country will be borrowing too much, and could go bust?

Best wishes, Ben

At least they would have contributed to our society. You on the other hand offer nothing, a drain on society.

I see let them all in they'll do a good job mentality ,shocking but predictable pretty much out of touch with reality ,oh well things will only get better

Contacted local Tory candidate...

Q - I got a message on the my FB feed there will be 50,000 more nurses under the Tories, is that true?

A - Yes that's correct we will go from 280,000 to 330,000. That's 31,000 new recruits and 19,000 retained staff

Have I missed something here?

Not rocket science 31,000 new recruits and 19,000 retained = 50,000 for your info retained means kept. So kept = not leaving as they would have been.

Of course if anyone from single person to whole country spends more than it can afford to do they/it will in the end go bust.

...you'd still be here you plank. Did your mum drop you as a child?

 

[portslade seagull]

may as well be free ice cream - what use is broadband without computers or tablets, so will they be free? the promise is to provide free fibre broadband, which goes far beyond a necessary level and becomes vastly expensive (at least 4 times more) than a simple FTTC broadband service. to deliver this they will nationalise Openreach and by default most the rest of the telecoms industry (there will be no need for other services). surely better to fund more modest universal service provision (to cover the uneconomic parts of the country) and throw a billion at libraries, all done for a fraction the total cost and follow consequences to economy?

Kills all competition in one fell swoop and puts thousands out of jobs who do not work for Openreach. Most other suppliers only income is from BB

And this is why the country is in such a mess, 50,000 more nurses = 31,000 new nurses. So, 19,000 " retained " Nurses ? how are they doing this ? nailing them in position ?

So, still not 50000 new nurses.

Thanks for clarifying this.

Sadly the big operators have no inclination to roll out more broadband cabling unless given a very large incentive. locally, Virgin Media are using the old Nynex installed cable broadband along from Worthing to Brighton, they did not shell out to install the cable and their shareholders are happy, that's all they care about.
