My message behind my post is that all the rich have nothing bad to say about her cos she helped them out, while the poor got f*ed over. I know these people because I went to school with them. The Conservative party have always been about benefiting the rich while the poor suffer. The problem with the poor is that they don't really trust any political party so they don't vote, they need to start voting cos the rich they get everyone and I mean EVERYONE in their families to vote, even the grannies.
