They have there head in the sand on the issue and its very very scary, I don't know how they sleep at night.duke63 wrote:The biggest problem we have is that debt has been spiralling out of control since 2008 but none of them are using it as an vote seller and only the Tories and LibDems seem to have a plan to reduce it.
We cannot go on borrowing an additional £90 billion EVERY year without it very soon becoming a serious problem that cannot be solved and yet many of the parties Labour, Greens, SNP plan to actually spend more. It just beggars belief.
I'm actually of a mind now that the parties have no interest in engaging people who can think for themselves and will vote for what they think is best at each election.

Re: General Election 2015
They don't give a toss, that's the issue as in 5 years time it will be someone elses problem in government....yet it will be you and me paying for it, either in higher taxes or less public services.

Re: General Election 2015
Lol, some people make it to easy though.
Was quite impressed today to see the queue out of the polling booth's today, the queue was out of the door and all age ranges where there. At least it seems like there is an interest in the destiny of our country.

Re: General Election 2015
Thank goodness the two nob Ed's are not running our country and the one will probably not even be an MP.
Could be the most devastating night in Labour's history with the fall out from Scotland.

Re: General Election 2015
He was being a twot last night.
LibDems got their arses handed to them. Shame really as I thought they did a good job in the coalition.
The Tories have got no one to turn to for support so this term in office for Cameron should be interesting.
UKIP got 3.5 million votes and 1 seat. SNP got over 50 seats with 1.5 million votes.

Re: General Election 2015
Mmm SNP got the result they wanted in Scotland but not in the rest of the country, so their clout may be limited.
I do think its a warning to both Labour and the Tories though that the country needs to have less influence from the South East and to have politics that suit each individual area and not just London. I think all areas could claim they get the shitty stick when compared to London.
