'Charity does start at home'
Not for the Tories, who have cut every public service sector to the bone. They inherited an NHS with the lowest waiting on times on record and have crippled it. Likewise 22,000 police and 10,000 firefighters have been cut since 2010, cheers Theresa. Did you know 500 libraries have closed since 2010...I could go on.

It begs the question, how do people keep voting for them. It appears its because Dianne Abbot fumbled over a sentence on bbc qt...

Out of interest Al, did you look at the Tory manifesto costs in the last election? I doubt it, because they didn't cost ANYTHING. You can't criticise Corbyn's fiscal policy because he has never implemented it. He did have a way of costing it though, seems you must have preferred the uncosted model.

I'm guessing you're also holding to account the Tory statements in the last couple of years, my favourite ones are

"This will be the easiest deal to make in history" David Davies - Former Brexit Secretary talking about EU negotiations of course
"The day after the referendum, we will start negotiating our own FTA's" Liam Fox, Trade Secretary
"I didn't quite realise how dependent we are on the Dover-Calais crossing" Dominic Raab, Current Brexit Secretary
"F*ck business" Boris Johnson, former Foreign Secretary
"Strong and Stable" You know who...

Out of interest, now this Tory govt have cut every public service to the bone, they're having a crack at our economy. Does anyone know how little foreign investment is being made in UK business right now, because of the uncertainty our government have created...this is hypothetical because its impossible to measure. Let me be clear, this is CRIPPLING business right now. And I know this from first hand experience, with major foreign owned UK based businesses. See above Boris Johnson statement for their reasons...

I'm not advocating Labour. I think Corbyn has been smeared by our press disgracefully, but I have no sympathy with him because is also a self serving scumbag who cares only about having another general election. If he really cared, he would provide proper opposition to what can only be described as the worst government in my lifetime. How is it possible for Labour to be behind them in the polls. His Brexit position is an absolute mess as well. Having said that, our society would be better off with a Labour government, of that I have no doubt.

It's time for these politicians to make way for a new crop. They've had their time now and they're collectively ruining us.
er the following are all quotes from reputable financial organisations this year.


The ONS also said British companies and investors saw the first net increase in their foreign direct investment since 2011 last year,

The UK remains Europe’s top destination for inward investment

Last year the UK attracted 6% more foreign direct investment (FDI) projects that the previous year, according to figures compiled by EY in a survey of 450 global investors,

According to a new report by IBM highlighted by the Department for International Trade (DIT) Britain is fifth most favoured place in the world for FDI.

We can make a success of Brexit or we can make a mess of it and see FDI fall. Where we probably do agree we have every chance of doing the later.
