Off Topic General election

Still in talks with the Loyalists mate.

 

Not sure, but have a feeling that the DUP may not be able to vote on certain issues due to the Anglo Irish agreement..

 

They can't get too cosy with May or Sinn Fein & the NI Catholics may well kick off.
It can do nowt but harm to the power sharing agreement over there.
Either way May is ****ed.

 

Ahem

Not where I live - all blue noses around here

 

So you were talking about a single constituency rather than the overall result...Now I get it..

 

That's 1 in 650 constituencies

 

Conservatives got 25% of the vote in Jarrow. Probably their biggest ever.

I don't like the system. It should be whoever gets the most votes, wins. Simple.

 

I liked that but it's not what I feel. Should be a thank button.

 

Would you all not rather have a political party that has fought to defend British interests and is fiercely loyal to the crown, rather than Sinn Fein (IRA) who Jeremy Corbyn has invited (not the DUP) to every annual Labour conference since 1983?

In a hung parliament it was always going to be one or the other and I thought people in this country would have been breathing a sigh of relief that it went this way.

We all see things differently though. I appreciate that

 

Couldn't agree more. The IRA were trying to kill us, that is anyone, man woman or child, and the Loyalist were trying to kill them - our enemy!

 

Bollocks you stupid twat.
You ever even been there?

 

DUP and May stand against the liberties of some of my loved ones. That alone is enough to want neither in power.

 

All bloody nutters in my eyes.. The DUP want to stop the theory of evolution being taught in schools and believe that dinosaurs never existed and that the fossils found have been put there in order to undermine the Bible's creationist theory.. They want to repel equality laws for women and believe homosexuality is a criminal offence.. Of course I am pro British, but that does not mean i will support nutters like these and think it is a terrible thing that they now hold sway in UK politics..

 

Just to get the facts correct in 2010 net borrowing was 150 billion and in 2016 it was 75 billion.

 

Who mentioned borrowing? I'm talking about the national debt that has doubled under the Tories..So put that in ya pipe and smoke it pal!!!

 

That post is a complete manipulation. You do know 2010 was a Tory Government from May onward? Also you're singling out individual years instead of Party terms. Build a proper picture with stats instead of distorting them

From 2010 to 2020 the Tory's and their coalitions will have borrowed a total of £870 billion. compare that to every labour Government since 1945(£490 billion), this doesn't factor inflation which would lessens the blow for the Tories but not much, especially given that the main manifesto promise from the Tories for the 2010 election is that they would not borrow.

 

Are you Woody from the Bay City Rollers?

 

No. Toy Story

 

Well somebody is pulling his string, lol.
