    I made it clear that I don't see either Tory tax cuts or Labour benefits increases as bribes. Twice. Why are you asking me to justify beliefs that I clearly don't hold?

    I get that you don't see them as bribes.

    But your definition of Conservative 'natural ground' v Labour 'natural ground' is interesting.

    Conservatives = rewarding self reliance, independence of the state, personal endeavour. All good, positive values.

    Labour = reliance on the state, choice of economic activity as a way of life. All negatives, backward looking.


    Maybe wikipedia might have helped you out of these appalling, biased, almost comic with the way you try and justify it, summaries that not even Grist and Fire with a week's copies of the Mail stuffed up their bums could have committed to public message boards.

    But very interesting that you wouldn't consider either of these party 'priorities' "a bribe" as it is "their natural ground". So a bribe isn't a bribe if you do it all the time.

    Have a good day.
