Sorry, got truncated somehow.
When I started work my dad said " a working man is his own worst enemy" but I didn't understand at the time.
Then came the.........

i didn't think Labour could put up a worse candidate than Angela Eagle and then I heard Owen Smith.

Do they really think people will vote for this Smith bloke?
He is totally clueless and has never had a proper job in his life

It was felt that too many folk would be confused by this process.

By the same, self serving numpties who decide we're to stupid to understand the ways of the world & the bigger political picture?

And don't we just know how spot on those views turned out to be!

I can't understand why they should think we are thick and ill informed, after all most of us attended the state schools that they so lovingly arranged for us.

With such a state of the art education system one imagines they would be proud to prove we are set for life to tackle any problem or decision they may care to put our way.

Yes, you are right son.
The truth is they(the political parties) really do not want proportional representation.
It is not in their interests to have the electorate exercise democratic control....or have their views and concerns taken notice of.
Politicians seem to think that they know far better than us what we want.....and certainly what is good for us.
And that is being treated like mushrooms - fed manure and kept in the dark.

Sorry cashy, I forgot to finish with a sarky smiley, so here it is:-

Just been watching the news and it seems this Welsh Pillock who our own MP thinks is wonderful, has suggested we should negotiate with I.S. on Syria, I will leave you to make yer own minds up about this."!

So yet another arrogant and selfish Britain blames Brexit on lack of education, how long was he in power? How many radical changes did HE make to the education system during his time to ensure voters of the future would be educated to a standard that makes them capable to vote?
Let's drag private schools into the compehensive system, see how their kids fare with a similar lack of education?

One of his sound bites was 'Education, Education, Education'.
Maybe he thought that if he said it three times it would come to pass......a bit like an islamic divorce.

Another one was 'tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime'...that worked didn't it?

Yes tough on crime, but not tough on his type of crime.
He was supposedly a Labour prime minister, how many politicians like him still pretend to be under that banner robbing and insulting the people of Britain?

[Less]

Oh, to answer my own question, do I need to look further than our local elected?
Educated to the same low standard as the rest of us, but so much more superior now he's got his arse on a seat and a decent pension.
Labour? Wouldn't want to talk labour anymore, at least when the tories rip me off, I know they don't pretend to like me.

Tony Blair was not labour....He was a Tory masquerading as Labour.....the shameful thing is that lots of people believed him......and by the time they had sussed him out he damaged this country beyond repair......and he is still damaging it, but that doesn't matter to him because it made him rich beyond any of our dreams......champagne socialists not interested in what they can do to further the cause of the worker. The ordinary Joe......only interested in how it will put money into their own pocket.

Which proves what he said, we, the uneducated masses don't deserve a vote, (he and his kind would rather bring back serfdom, we the masses should be grateful for the black death it brought social reform, or am I acting too educated?).
