Campaign hasn't really started yet so I don't know what you are saying.

Regards Conservatives NOT being able to defend their record, this is utter hogwash.
At the end of the day we cannot allow the economic gains made over the last 5 years to be thrown away by Labour.There is still much to do of course but we cannot allow Labour to wreck it.Or should I say a Labour/SNP coalition !

Deregulation of the banks was backed wholeheartedly by Dave and Gideon. It's completely disengenous to blame Ed Balls for a policy that the Conservatives backed and actually wanted to go further

Gideon also announced that there would be no rise in VAT and it rose the minute he came into power so do we take what he says seriously? I mean, he was on TV telling the rich how to avoid paying tax don't forget.

If what you say is true, he could have raised 5.3 billion quid from his mates already but instead chose to attack the most vulnerable in our society and only acted once he and his mates were caught out.

Well actually Hogwash it aint Trolley..only blind partisan political types would say it isn't so...and you have accurately described exactly what happens...its global business actions which decide when recoveries start and finish, not the actions of politicians. Politicians and governments are simply reactionary in their local policy making dependant on big (financial) business decisions and simply tinker when the global economic powers decide to circle the wagons

Osborne and Cameron like Blair and Brown before them are puppets.

I am not sure a link from the Daily Torygraph which is titled 'Labour 1997-2010 was the worst government ever and this is why' is something I would expect any political balance or education from to be honest, although I suppose like those good burghers at the the likes of The Grauniad and Un-Independent it helps bolster those of a partisan, blind and politically brainwashed and prejudiced persuasion that only they can be right and everybody else is wrong...

As far as the rules go, it's a website not a democracy - Hambo 3/6/2014

But more VAT. Swings and roundabouts, give with one hand take with the other. and besides, what a nation need isn't 'money in the pocket', its the functional aparatus of state.

Is it any wonder people talk of failing Britain, when successive governments have continued to reduce public services (admittedly slower under labour than the conservatives) in order to cut taxation.

Public services are what binds a nation together, they are the fabric of interconnectivity that bring us togeather as a people and feed throughout our culture and identity.

I don't blame the conservatives alone, labour are just as bad, they talk up the idea of nationhood, citizenship, duty and belonging to a great nation, but have essentially spent the last 25 years tearing that fabric apart in order to win elections.

I wouldn't vote conservative, but I absolutely would never vote labour either. Democracy in the UK is a dead horse, and has been since Blair effectively finished turning the Labour party into a Conservative lite party. Ted Heath was more left wing than New Labour.

A signficant part of the electorate aren't even represented due the the abuse of constitutional democracy creating a two horse race for almost every seat.

Why didn't Gideon raise the 5.3b in tax from the banks before going after the most vulnerable? Why did it not occur to him to raise those funds before it came out in the press? He either lied and kept it quiet or he had no idea how much tax was being siphoned. He's either a liar or incompetent. Take your pick.

Why did Gideon make a promise on VAT if he don't know the full extent of what he could do? He's either liar or incompetent. Take your pick.

Its not the fact its a two horse race but because many people just do not want to get off their big fat butts and go along and vote....AND you also find that the ones who shout out loudest about the government of the day being cr@p and useless are the ones who have not voted anyway......this time round you really do have only two choices and that is to vote Labour or conservatives as to let the SNP get in on a coalition is suicide, and again IF Labour do happen to get in its DOOM AND BUST all over again I am afraid so take your pick.....the choice is yours...

Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky.
