    when there was "change" in prescriptions a few years back chemists used to tell people that the medication / prescription they were on was "cheaper over the counter!

    one such item I remember was elasticated bandages .. almost half price over the counter!

    chemists nowadays are "money orientated" they get paid per prescription and they buy in the cheapest supply they can. A neighbour was on a certain tablet that lets say contained AAAA & BBBB & other things, on it for ages chemist changed the supplier and although the tablets indicated AAAA & BBBB the other things were different for a start they were "uncoated" and other things were a bit different, they started having side effects and sorting out the problem after 3 months of this that and the other problem solved..........

    they do but apparently not the manufacturers of the medication .. I had at least 3 different medications over a period of 7 years [ same prescription, different manufacturer ] on all the medications I used to have when paying only got told once or twice it was cheaper for me to buy over counter.

    back to the original question, who gets your vote. No party has done enough so far to earn my vote, however the Conservatives have done enough to make sure for only the 2nd time in 40+ years they won't get it

    I can’t see them doing anything other than possibly taking votes, and possibly a couple of seats, from the conservatives. Farage just likes the sound of his own voice.

    It might be the kick in the rear and wake up call that the established parties need to keep them on their toes.
    If it serves no other purpose, it will have been worthwhile.

    I think it will split the Tory vote - along with the Lib Dem’s who seem to be on a comeback.
    Standing for Clackton was a good trick - at least he has increased his chance of (finally) getting a seat in the commons to be able to voice his ‘pub politics’.

    West Dorset has been Conservative for my whole life
    Its time for a change - I will be voting Lib Dem who are the credible opposition in my Ward
    Oh - and I'm not that impressed with our current MP anyway

    Another almighty own goal.
    You can't make it up.

    We're at the start of the next political merry-go-round ending with another change believing life will get better.
    Voters......wake up.

    Enjoy life, ignore the BBC and the chancers in Westminster, work hard and love your family.
