And corbyn calling hesbullah & Hamas FRIENDS? Of which he has regretted saying? You really want this man running the country?

I don't recall saying I do want him running this country. Not on this board or to anyone in the 'real world'.

But seeing as you ask, that is so low down on my list of things to consider when voting that it doesn't even register. I also notice when these points are raised that nobody brings up him being arrested for demonstrating for the release of Mandela.
 
Read my other posts? Too f'king right he'll hurt ME & thousands others financially! <doh>

And me. I'd pay 50% tax, but I don't care cos I'm all in favour of higher taxation for those that can afford it. Some of the Scandinavian countries are the highest taxed in the world and they have some of the best public services in the world and therefore quality of life.

It's almost as if the two things are somehow linked.

The members of this board decided we should make an exception to the no politics rule for a short time when there's a General Election, so that's what we're doing.

Anyone who doesn't want to participate, don't come on the thread.

It went very well last time, it's been rather more fractious this time, let's try and keep it civil and respect others opinions.

And wind your neck in Brady, you're spamming the thread.

It really couldn't be labelled any clearer - if you don't like it, don't read it.

It's not about tax I'm happy to pay more as I've said previously! It's the fact that higher wages for non skilled workers will cripple businesses! You can't just stick £3 on minimum wage and expect businesses to keep going? hundreds of thousands of small businesses like mine will either lay people off or close! Everyone wants to be on big wages but as soon as your milk or paper goes up there's an outcry! The Tories run the country like a business and labour like last time run it like a circus! It's all about opinions and we'll soon see Friday?

Tories is actually an insult when referencing the Conservative party. Surprising how many of their own supporters don't know that.

Did you actually read what I said? Do think it's just rich people who vote conservative? Did you see the f'king mess left by Blair & brown last time? We're still paying for it! The famous note left on the exchequers desk read something like " good luck there's no money "

the rich get richer and the gap grows wider, **** costs more, bout only thing to expect really

while our education system deteriorates
transport infrastructure sticks in the 1990s
abysmal pricing
old technology etc etc
