Hmmm...that’s what I thought, but apparently that’s just me ‘ruining’ the country and ‘tearing it apart’. ;DQuote:

Yes, voting for him causes trouble. But nothing changes without pain.
I for one am sick to death with the way politics has gone over the last 20 years.
Lining their own nests/ignoring voters/lying/breaking the law without fear
I hoped the other parties would wake up and change at the threat the Brexit party posed.
But no, just like the EU they refuse to reform.
Tories- May/Johnson/hunt spare me.
Liebour, Corbyn/Abbott/McDonnall, the most native hating politicians ever
Lib Dims- Lying Cable, now in bed with turncoat hokey cokey Chukka. About as trust worthy as a used condom.
So what does he stand for?
Listen to voters. Do what is asked of you. That's why you are voted in. It's a principle Soubry has never understood.
By the 70s, workers had got themselves a good deal. Too many still weren't happy and we had a period of huge unrest that basically riined the mining industry, much of the UK manufacturing industry and, since then, job security in the UK has gone down and down. Thousands of part time jobs all paying minimum wage. Zero hours contracts are a laugh as well although they do seem to be going out of fashion.
Austerity, inability to pay pensions resulting in the pensionable age going up and up, National debt gone up twofold in the past 9 years, a total lack of compassion for the sick and the disabled of this country, ex servicemen living rough as they have struggled to make the transition from the forces back to civvy street often due to PTSD and other mental health issues. What have all flavours of government done about this? Absolutely nowt. They force people off their death beds as they are deemed "fit to work".
I grew up in a caring nation. That nation has died and we are left with a f*ck you Jack, I'm all right society where the rich get richer and the rest had better know their place. As I said in a different post, globalism has seen an ever decreasing number of people taking the profits to better themselves and using some of it to back politicians to make their lot even better to the detriment of the rest. Unless it is stopped it will only get worse. The multinationals will get more and more say in government policy and the ordinary man/woman will be working 3 jobs just to get by.
Who's to blame? IMO a handful of Union bosses who pushed and pushed until the owners of the companies decided to push back..... harder.
At the start of the 70s we were doing well, now we are going backwards fast.
Vitriolic name calling.. Examples please? Bar Swaledales of course.Quote:

Regarding Jo Brand it was something like...’should be arrested for giving pig ugly a bad name’.
Will that do seeing as you asked for examples?
Oh and apparently I’m ‘precious’ which, coming from someone whose avatar looks like Gollum posing with his big white BMW(?) I decided was just vaguely ironic.
Have a look at the thread and, Tricky and Swale’s ongoing war of words apart, it was all quite civil, constructive even, without you.
Tart?Quote:

Oi now that's a step too far, leave the avatar alone
But Tricky, Farage is the most ‘self serving’ and ‘nest feathering’ of the lot.Quote:
