    It really wasn't "alright 15 years ago"!!
    It was inefficient, poorly run, dysfunctional, **** systems, etc etc.
    Issues during the last 15 years have simply exacerbated the problems (issues including population explosion (and that's not hyper-bole), aging population, continuing decline in healthy life styles for too many, covid, etc etc.)

    I tell you what Labour should do, end the scam of directors taking out unlimited amounts of money from companies and only paying 20% tax, how the **** is that fair?

    Carmine has trawled through 28 pages of this nonsense and has come to the final conclusion, the only conclusion .

    Stay at home.

    Politics, and therefore voting, is for nerds.

    Jog on Poindexters.

    Personally I can’t wait to see the back of the present government, the sleaze, corruption, lying and dishonesty they’ve displayed over the years must surely have killed off many people’s enthusiasm for politics. I hope the next lot can restore just a little faith…

    Stop people being paid cash in hand and evading taxes which means they undercut people who do things properly.

    I was surprised when I went to vote. Couldn’t get on car park and people queueing. More than I have seen before. Maybe in Hull apathy is a way of life. In the last election Karl Turner’s constituency was the only one with a less than 50% turnout,

    You can bet the biggest whingers during the next Parliament will be those who don’t vote.

    It’s the Tory’s denial to the death which amuses me. Liz Truss has no remorse at all but that’s not a surprise. During the election between her and Sunak, while the country needed an announcement re the energy bill support, she held a Mayfair “ fizz with Liz gig. Talk about not been in touch.

    Chazz won’t be voting, it’s Pilates night in the upstairs room in The Duke tonight so we all know what that means.

    Pesting comes before voting, he’ll be in there already.

    Jostling for pole position, pun intended.

    They’d have to set it up before they could end it, it’s not actually a thing you can do.
