Re: More Common Sense
Well, Jaysay seems to have been a busy soul today, helpfully copying and pasting all these news stories that highlight how the Tory/LibDems are making life better for all of us.
But wait! What's this I see? Here's one he must have missed. Never mind, I'll do the copying and pasting for him. I'm sure he'll thank me tomorrow!
Tories ¿back down¿ over immigrants¿ English test | Mail Online

Every Labour Government has left a complete dogs breakfast of an economy behind them, the biggest being the last incapable shower, as for immigration Labour though that an open door policy on immigration was a wonderful idea, Hmmm

Re: More Common Sense
just as taggy says,theres going to be cuts galore and nobody will be there to implement these policies ,so its the same old thatcherite policies ,say something and let the opposite happen.ie stand up for britain,what really happened ripped the taxpayer off by selling every nationalised profit making organisation to their cronies for peanuts which didnt do anything for standing up for britain.

Have you ever actually spent time in a third world country, Mancie? I have and I can tell you that even with the cuts this government are making (many of which I don't agree with), their policy is nowhere near that of a third world country.
Before you start spouting such utter tripe, go and spend some time in a thrid world country...it might open your eyes a little.

You don't believe anything that doesn't fit your narrow minded view of the world we live in, you still believe that anybody that as a few bob are arrogant rich Tories, whereas in reality there are just as many left wing oiks who have plenty of money in the back sack, as I've said before the person with the most wealth sitting as a member in the last parliament wasn't a rich Tory nor a well healed Lib/dem it was a good old member of the Labour Party
