If they had invested that in UK PLC & public services we would have had a return on our money and paid off at least part of the debt.

Just refer to the link I gave you earlier, which gives you plenty of ammo to answer Roger.

Wow...I think I've just been patronised.
Roger doesn't convince me that easily, KCG. But he does talk some sense when he's got his serious head on.
I agree with most of what you say too including every word of that second paragraph and the link was excellent.
Economics isn't my strong point and I find it worthwhile to try and take as many points of view - excluding those from the remotely far right - on board as possible and Roger I find interesting largely because he's such a contradiction...don't think I've ever encountered something approaching compassionate fascism before.
As for tomorrow...be in no doubt, I know what I want from the election and bottom of my wish list is an increased Tory majority.

Worry not rA!! Dustybin is in, May is on her way!!

Shouldn't go booking that holiday just yet mac. Seems likely we'll get precisely what I, for one, didn't want.
Looking like your next bets might have to be on the new Home Secretary, Chancellor and Labour leader.

Some unique polling stations. Pretty neat. Imagine having your home as a polling station!
But certainly not in Rattea's home...

Oh I don't know, a labour victory was a long shot and a hung parliament is not a bad thing, it means that the more extreme policies cannot be introduced, never liked governments with big majority's they ignore the 50% plus voters who didn't vote for them.

Most likley here is May will have to tread very carefully and its less likely that there will be a hard Brexit.

As for relying on those bigots and fascists in the DUP, good luck with that one May!
