Woohoo!

We get to see the tory cnuts f*ck it up

Well Baz I dont know how that works BUT I can only comment on my situ, along with my families who I know for certain are MUCH better of under the Labour Party, as compared to when we were living under a tory Government. The pensioners couldnt afford to heat their homes under the tories, and, correct me if I am wrong but didnt Thatcher tell them to go to bed in a hat and gloves to keep warm.

I believe that was Edwina Curry.

Thanks for the correction

And I can only comment on my  (as a pensioner)and my families situation Lockes  But I do find it interesting that people keep on harking back to the Thatcher years.... which were 20 years ago, and forget that Thatcher only got in because Labour and the unions brought the whole country to it's knees in the 1970s, with three day weeks, and constant  power cuts,  etc......

I know many many pensioners who are really struggling at the moment to heat their homes after 13 years of Labour government.

So, what are you Tories hoping for, Con/Dem Nation, or just the big Con?

Tell them to go to bed in a hat and gloves then

Exactly the pensioners get heating allowance now I wonder if  the Tories will take that away from them, perhaps not this winter but would not count on them in the future, if anyone thinks the pensioners will be better under the Tories I hope they  are right but will not hold my breath...

No... we've had 13 years of the big con Blizzie..... we are now hoping for a change

Well I can only speak for myself Blizzie, nice of you to ask , but I am hoping that the billions and billions that have been totally wasted can be vastly reduced and we can start to put the money where it belongs in front line services and not bloated administration.  Bye bye ID Card Scheme, bye bye regional assemblies and hopefully most of the quangos too.

Otherwise known as New Labour.

Sounds like a plan with merit!

Spider today I went to the dentist.  Nothing unusual about that you say, I go for a checkup every 6 months.  But I had to fill in another patient information sheet.  I said I had only just done one but no now we have to do a new one every six months a requirement from the PCT.  More tick boxes, more red tape.  More common sense please.

Only a matter of time before a David Cameron is a w*nker thread pops up

Which of course includes Cameron, same old Tory agenda of the past of look after yourself first.

If we do have, and it's still not certain, a coalition of the Tories and their fellow losers then I think that's it for the LibDems. Clegg has sacrificed his own party to satisfy his own ambition for power. This won't go down well in your average LibDem seat, or Redcar.

I think the Lib dems will pay heavily myself but thats just my opinion.

I feel the Lib/Dems have played it well.
Of course we don't know enough to judge fairly yet.
Naturally there will be some upset and angry people.
Change can be difficult and scary.
On the rumour and scanty evidence so far, I am reasonably ok about it.

Hardly Brisket! I remember a childhood poem along the lines of, ' "Come into my parlour!" said the spider to the fly.'  I am so glad that Labour were too proud to beg. Let 'em get on with it.

Oh!  I thought all 3 parties  were negotiating.
(But then I can be naive.)

I think the reason for that is that Thatcher destroyed the fabric of this country. We don't have an industry anymore, which isn't just about jobs, but also about communities. She beleived in laissez faire, which might be a nice idea if you are a big business magnate, but it doesn't work for a 40 year old steelworker or miner who has never learnt anything else to do in his life. She let people buy their council house, but didn't build any new ones which has resulted in the homelessness we have now. She wasted Scottish oil on her English policies, she started a war when she thought it would be popular and keep her in. She said 'there's no such thing as society', well, we are still reaping the sour grapes from this lunatic, who announced the birth of her grandchild with 'we have become a grandmother'. The Queen hated her guts, just like I did.

Well I never knew that......do tell

Exactly, they didn't have to buy.  A lot obviously managed to get on the housing ladder that way.  Which almost no-one, especially the young, manage now.

Nail and head Cologne

What war???

Your post said it all cologne

Nope! Negotiations with labour are completed. Obviously too proud to beg.

That probably has a lot to to with the fact that you can buy a council house for a pittance and sell it after a very short time for 4 times the amount.

And why cant the young get on the property ladder.......erm due to housing shortage, its all about supply and demand

The Falklands war..

Make up your mind you were just having a go at Margaret Thatcher for coming up with the scheme.  Everyone could make up their own mind whether they wanted to take advantage of it.

So Margaret Thatcher invaded the Falklands now

I haven't got any examples to hand lockes, but it was well known at the time that the Queen thought old milk snatcher was too big for her boots.

Lal, I'm talking about the Falkland War.
