Because the Connservatives were a poor alternative.
New Labour seemed to be a breath of fresh air. Though it now seems that Blairs boys were closet Tories after all, or didn't you realise that? It's why Corbyn went on his Stalin purge. He drove loads of them out for his lefty ideals.
I voted for Lib dems in 2010 till NC came out with the whopper of the century of broken promises.
I told you, I look at every party at the time of a vote. It's about what suits an individual at the time. I had voted for Blair, but eventually came to hate him for what he did. He should answer for those crimes.
I voted UKIP because I wanted a vote. This put the willies up Cameron enough to give one. Like a trusting fool, I listened to May and her promises. She failed.
But in the same stance so did Liberals and Labour. They promised to adhere to that referendum.
I was going to vote Brexit party, but now have to tactically vote Tory.
Next election, with Brexit gone we can get back to the nitty gritty.
You are all doing the same with this as you have with the Brexit vote. Ignoring why folks are pissed off.
This election IS about Brexit, no matter how many manifesto's get banded about.
It's all politicians own fault.
You reap what you sow.
Now you tell me, why do you keep voting Labour, when I have just said they lie as much as any of the others?
Oh you really are a complete and utter ****! Its utterly pointless debating with you, because your so easily fooled by the right wing pres, lets face anyone who quotes the express as facts is completely brain dead!
I earn a good deal more than £80K and don't begrudge the tax i pay, why? because I know that a decent society relies on paying for services. If you actually bother to read the details of Labour policy then you'd know that GP's aint going to be tax clobbered, but they might just work in a service with better funding and conditions.
As per usual you swallow the bull**** put out by a right wing media, funnily enough owned by rich ex pat billionaires who know that many average working people are stupid enough to swallow it, then wonder why they continue to be ripped off and exploited! **** me you couldn't make what you say up, yet you do, despite being told on here what an absolute **** you are nd despite countless times being asked to explain the facts that lie behind your loony ravings!
No I am not a Corbynite, neither am I a Labour member, but I do recognise that Farage and Johnson are the front for very rich people who certainly do not have yours and my interests at heart.
As for you, well sonny go back and play with your lego, as you clearly do not have the intelligence to work out reality in life.
What a sad misogynist bigoted **** you are.
Got to go with the red dog here, I mean, who the hell wants 100,000 council houses a year being built? Who the hell wants thousands of affordable starter homes being built? Who wants the NHS still free at the point of contact? Free prescriptions, stupid idea. No tuition fees? What!!?? Free dental checks? Can't wait for BoJO to get his teeth into that dumb idea. Free personal care for the elderly? Why should they get pampered? etc etc etc.
Tricky, How many of the above would you turn down?
BTW - Scotland already has the above plus they own Scottish Water, free parking in Scottish NHS hospital car parks, has created an Investment Bank.............. and all of that despite giving 62 billion last year in taxes to Westminster and only getting 36 billion back.... Now the UN has accepted the Arbroath Declaration that independence is another step closer and then England will be in deep sh*t.
We're probably not a million miles apart Swale. Entrepreneurs create jobs and ought to be allowed to make money. They should also expect to pay reasonable tax on those profits. There is a middle ground and that is where we should, IMO, be situated. I find it disgusting that some companies are making hundreds of millions and more profit but only paying twopence halfpenny (figuratively speaking) in tax on that. Countries SHOULD be run for the many, not the few. Tories go too far in favour of the "1%" and Labour are saying they will give away far too much in a short space of time. They would be more credible if they said "this is what we want to achieve over the next 20/30 years but in the course of the next Parliament we can reasinably expect and afford to do 20% of it".
Why do oliticians refuse to be realistic come election time and why do they never, ever (almost anyway) answer the question asked? IMO if a politician started a new party, put out realistic policies and answered questions that were asked as opposed to the ones they would have liked to have asked, that politician and his party would walk the election. Closest to that at the moment is Sturgeon and she will never ever be PM.
Swales I'm afraid it will be the firing suad, what a sad choice we have to pick from Afraid about 80% of voters have not got a clue what they are are voting for But as you always say it's them at the bottom who will suffer.I'm just hoping it is a hung parliament and it drags on again But in reality i think Johnson will get his majority that coward Farage has seen to that
Yep, round and round we go.
