Quoted from Bigdog


To be fair Barra, privatising parts of the NHS has been done by all the main parties in power, somehow it's airbrushed out of history in some memories. Not sure whether it's right or not for the private sector to be involved, I don't know enough, but by trying to point privatisation in one direction colourwise is just inaccurate. On top of this.. anyone remember PFI that we're all still paying for?


It happened under Blair/Brown but it won't under Corbyn/McDonnell.

I saw your face and heard you call my name.

Tokyo, Budapest, Prague, Warsaw, etc etc etc
Big City's with low Muslim population which have no Islamic terror attacks.


Also big cities in countries without a history of occupying, bombing and invading Muslim countries. Bar a few minor exceptions (Japan - Indonesia in 1942; Hungary/Poland v the Ottomans but that was to re-take Christian areas).

Quoted from Maringer


Government policy, of course.

Cut tax on higher earners, increase the income tax threshold, cut tax credits, cut benefits. Defund HMRC and let them come to cosy agreements with the wealthy/corporations caught trying to dodge tax. Fail to even investigate tax evasion by the wealthy when given all the information you need to do so ([url=http://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2015/02/09/200000-people-were-prosecuted-for-not-having-a-tv-licence-last-year-but-hmrc-wont-prosecute-swiss-tax-cheats/]shocking![/url]).

What else? Who owns shares? The wealthy. When you cut Corporation Tax, it turns out that the companies don't invest more as they always claimed they would! Who'd have thunk it?

Here's what the IFS thinks will happen to the income of the poor and the wealthy (and everyone else) if the Tories retain power:

Here's what happened under the coalition where the very richest actually took a bit of a hit (don't worry, they can afford it!) but the very well off benefited whilst the poorest suffered:

Government policy shapes the way the economy operates. Pretty obvious who the Tories care about, isn't it?


Sterling work Maringer. Judging by the red crosses, people on here obviously don't like facts.

My vote for TOTW goes to Khan and all the liberal elitists that like to have their vigils and minutes silences and be filmed and photographed as if they really care.

They quite clearly don't otherwise they would have done something about it by now. It is 12 years since the 7th of July bombings and people are still being murdered on the streets. FFS World War 2 only lasted 6 years.

May has now said enough is enough, far too late and Corbyn would prefer to talk so I bet he is really drunk the feds shot the excrement out of them, he probably wanted to invite them round for tea and ask "what's up lads".

They are all flipping twits.

One of the reasons why I will be voting Tory on Thursday.

It's getting tiresome but Corbyn fully supported the decision taken to neutralise the terrorists on Saturday night...

I don't dislike Corbyn as a person I just think he isn't going to get us the best Brexit deal, just my opinion.

For the record I have voted Labour many times in the past.

Surely nobody believes that either May or Corbyn are going to be directly involved in negotiations? Labour have barristers with over 20 years experience in Starmer and Thornberry. The Tories have Boris and David Davies...
