You govern for yourselves and your party; not the country You now have a Prime Minister looking to reverse the irresponsible cuts that his predecessors forced upon us and take credit for repairing the damage. The government debt continues to grow. How anyone can *still* vote for the Tories is crazy. If only there was some decent opposition.

"People like me" are far from "arrogant", at least over this issue. We have just looked at what has actually happened and are determined that such a disastrous sequence of events be brought to an end by our Parliament in the interests of our country I understand your 'arguments' but you seem to constantly overlook the importance of honouring a democratic vote. Either they have a brain block about the wider issues or they are deliberately obtuse because they simply cannot stand down from their position for egotistical or party political reasons. This is about the long term future, not the next year or five years or even ten.

With the greatest of respect I take a totally alternative viewpoint which I suspect is not a surprise to you! I certainly cannot accept the claim that Conservatives have not governed for the country when since April 2017 we have cut Income Tax for 31 million with the result that an additional 1.3 million of the lowest paid taken out of having to pay tax at all.This is just one example. Regards the "Cuts", such a policy was not done out of spite but tough decisions had to be taken to bring the public finances under control.Responsible Governments make tough decisions, irresponsible ones spend money like it is going out of fashion and bring the economy to it's knees - just ask Corbyn! I have to go out now so will bid farewell.At least we have debated our polarised opinions without any rancour or vitriol.Have a good day and don't forget the umbrella!

How many people could put a face to Richard Leonard or Jackson Carlaw let alone Willie Rennie. Ruth Davidson gained a bit of traction but now she’s gone it’s hard to see past the SNP.

Paragraph one. Moan Paragraph two. Moan Paragraph three. Moan Paragraph four. Moan. Honestly, you sound like you have an arthritic hip and can't find your painkillers.

With respect I have never concluded that framing someone in these terms is considered abusive. Corbyn to my mind is a tyrant-backing, NATO-bashing marxist and his party propped up by the Lib Dems and SNP are the cast of no-hopers that have spent the last three years preventing Parlianment from getting anything done. Whilst the EU have stayed firm all the way through and done their talking with the other 26 behind closed doors and with a united front. The way it should have been done here.
Bring back Brolin |
