Si1 Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Of course the 'What would have been' that no-one is talking about is the loss of Brown's old seat (AFAICT) to SNP. Wonder why he stood down? Total chicken, spineless *****. He stands banging about about fighting this + that and then when it comes to it, he just slinks off like the spineless, loser ***** he is. +1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spyguy Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 I'm not an End milliband fan, but given his limitations I thought he had a more than creditable campaign. If it was just Ed then Labour would not have such a problem. There's only about a handful of Labour MP who turn up o nthe telly - Milliband, Brown, Mrs Brown, Harperson and, err, thats it. Where are the up + comers? Where's the next leadership? Don't say chukkaukka. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheCountOfNowhere Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 More money Printing. Morn jobs for the boys. More debt. More insane housing policies. More Immigration. More lining of their own pockets Ord lining of the 1% ers pockets. and that was no matter who won Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Si1 Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 All these selfish boomer and pensioner Tory voters will spend the next 10-20 years bleeding the NHS dry leaving the young with a massive ******ing bill to pick up, but no NHS to use themselves. Hopefully they'll make a better go off reforming the NHS at the 2nd bite Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheCountOfNowhere Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 I am going to disagree with you on that. I don't think that house prices are it. It is more to do with the stupid policies of Labour than with those of the Tories.... and the incredibly weak but arrogant Labour leadership. So, no bubble, pensions cut, public sector pay cut. Who would have won? People have just voted for the tory economic miracle. That miracle being money printing, media propaganda and immigration. I despair Quote Link to post Share on other sites

At least the party of no principles lost out large...the Lib Dems, including Bob around here. I know the Tory that got in...what an entitled **** he was...dislikable and entitled....but poor old Bob, the MP with some of the lowest expenses claims, tirelessly working for local issues, out because of the amaebas in the head of the party.

The Masked Tulip Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Agreed. This is like 1982. The Labour voter looked at those meant to be representing them and thought: 'WTF!' The smug, North London elite are just as removed from the core Labour voter as Michael Foot. Not being discussed at all on the BBC for obvious reasons but in England and Wales there has been a move to the right if you add together the Tory and UKIP vote. In my view this is a rejection, amongst many, of Milibland's refusal to see any problem with immigration as much as worries about Labour's economic policies. Also what is not being discussed regarding the collapse of the Lib vote is where the Liberal vote has gone - the turnout shows that those former Liberal voters did not stay at home nor did they move to Labour so... they have voted for either Tory, UKIP, Green or SNP. In the seats where they voted for UKIP or SNP that is a hell of a move from a Liberal mindset. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

choochoo Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 I don't know who's more deluded The People of Scotland for believing the SNP's promises to "end austerity" or The People of Southern England for believing "there's been a recovery" I'm Scottish and believe this result will be very bad for the UK and for Scotland. No one to restrain the Tories and I would expect they'll look to exact some sort of revenge on Scotland - Poll Tax trial anyone? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bloo Loo Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Maybe Bob should have stood up and said something these past 5 years? surprisingly, the bit of the Colchester District I live in is not in the constituency...Bob is always in the papers fighting local causes, which is prolly why he has been a fixture for so long. My Mp yesterday was Priti Patel....I have corresponded with her on ocassion, with an unsatisfactory reply, which I replied in detail as to why, to which she was too busy to respond.. still, expecting anything more was foolish of me.

The deficit will need to be cut and an attempt at the debt. I am unsure why you are reacting so negatively to a Tory majority as it now gives the Tories the opportunity to make the cuts that a coalition with the Liberals stopped them doing.
