Pretty sure that if the Tories said they are going to build a million council houses, empower the unions, super fund the NHS and tax the rich, Pap and SoS would fine something to criticise them with.
Given that theyâre going to do precisely none of that, thatâs a pretty useless comment.
See, criticsing tories again.

Justifiably so on this occasion.
Just keeping you honest, CB
Lock that regional inequality in. Ensure that anyone wanting a higher wage has to move to a more affluent region (and not be able to afford fuck all when they get there).
Who wants to address inequality when it can be exploited, eh?
Theresa Mayâs new head of policy has previously developed plans to cut employment rights and wages in poorer areas, it has emerged.
George Freeman, a Conservative MP, wrote a paper in 2013 arguing that the minimum wage and public sector pay should be âregionalisedâ.
The paper, âThe Innovation Economy Industrial Policyâ, which he co-wrote with fellow MP Kwasi Kwarteng, suggests reducing the minimum wage in areas where incomes are lower.
Sorry to CB and all the other righties.
Your lot canât seem to keep out of trouble.
This Conservative govt have accumulated more debt than every Labour govt COMBINED. Theyâve also borrowed more and lost AAA credit rating.
I would praise them from the rooftops, then ask them why they demonised the disabled as the âuseless eatersâ? They copied Nazi propaganda FFS. It was the lowest, most disgusting thing i have ever witnessed from a British government towards the people theyâre supposed to represent and protect.
Came close today, with their announcement that British troops are free to rape and torture. But thatâs foreigners, so apparently thatâs OK(have a read of the mail).
Putting the tories into power is like a limbo competition for the nation. âHow low dare you goâ. It doesnât matter how low you think we can go, the tories will take us lower.
Sad times for anyone that considers themselves civilised.
Oh yeah, youâre spot on
if you truly believe that then you are deluded.

This is an old arguement, shall I wheel out the old Labour left them a historic deficit number?
Meh, I wonât have a massive go about this on here, but I donât like this term. Youâre not alone, CB - actual politicians bung it about like confetti and all, but I do think itâs a mental health slur.
Why? Because I know people that are genuinely deluded. They end up down at the Royal South Hants Department of Psychiatry, sectioned or worse. One mush I know claimed to be Jesus at one time, god at others and claimed he was going to be Prime Minister. Another claims heâs written pretty much every R&B song since the early 90s & ripped off by major labels.
I know it sounds amusing, but these people genuinely believe it, theyâre genuinely deluded - causing them, their loved ones and society a shitload of stress, anxiety and worry.
Extrapolation is not delusion.

Not sure why you are implying I am making light of mental health issues. Read the definition.
Anyone deluded is in a state of delusion. Sorry, but that term does carry mental health connotations.
a. A false belief or opinion: labored under the delusion that success was at hand.
b. Psychiatry A false belief or perception that is a manifestation of a mental illness: delusions of persecution.
believing things that are not true:
Delusional thinking is common in schizophrenia.
I glanced that headline today. Didnât they go with âBrave Soldiers defeat legal vulturesâ?
I would happily agree with sensationalist, as was the intention.
Whatâs replacing the ECHR? Every time a law/regulation is taken away things only get worse.
Also why are the MOD paying out so much already and how will this backwards step help(assuming we are civilised people and not just worried about saving money).
Iâve got a very nasty feeling that the shit is really going to hit the fan in November. As you say, SoS, once introduced or mucked with, things only get worse for Joe Public. Tuition fees are one example. The new 20K benefit cap, coming in November, could cause untold misery.
In Liverpool, not a city famed for itâs ultra-expensive rents, 840 families are at risk of homelessness because of the cut, including 2800 children. Thatâs Liverpool. Whatâll the damage be in the South East?
The Tories could just about get away with the benefit cap when introduced because of their talent for moron-grabbing mechanisms like âno family on benefits should receive more money than those on the average wageâ.
Even then, it was shite, failing to account for the fact that the average wage often wasnât a living wage, depending on location and circumstances. Now it is going to be a fucking vice, tightening its grip. Weâll see evictions in January nationwide, ongoing after that. The destitution its capable of causing in larger families, often needing support through no fault of their own, is going to be incalculable.
Sad times. Got to get these buggers out.
Arenât all the unemployed feckless wasters that donât want to work or have my government and press been lying to me?
Something about May scares the shit out of me much more than Cameron and Osborne ever did.
P.S have a look at all the articles in the Mail. Itâs fucking scary if you read anything else.
Iâve mentioned this before, and I have no intention on going Leadsom on Theresa May, but it does trouble me that she has literally none of the family connections that many of us fret over. No siblings, living parents or kids. Not to project but I personally worry about all three, and Iâm guessing that most of the rest of the country worries about at least one category.
She has no dependents, yet a nation depends on her.
Not sure where to put this but UKIP leader Diane James stepping down.
Put it down to Nigel probably. Heâs back isnât he?
