Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

Hays refering to Cameron...... hes no economist stop talking rubbish....... poor mans way of getting an economic qualification.......... not even up to 'A' level economics.
Cameron studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics....PPE.
Cable you are right is only practised economist in cabinet but he got his qualifications whilst with LABOUR.
And I did post this have a look....
"LOL David not one Torry economist in the cabinet".................
Again Hays all your facts all wrong. 1 out of 10 for trying.

i'm just a simple soul and am have no intent of being drawn further than, as i wrote previously, ultimately, we are all dealt a hand of cards, over which we have little or no control .... some then make good use and advantage of that, whereas others fall by the wayside

All the polls are wrong unless they agree with Haystack's viewpoint.

you guys have been hopping about like crazy over recent polls, but unless i am much mistaken, an 11 point lead over the incumbents is not taken by "those who know" as anything like sufficient at this juncture
what no one really knows, is how great a difference in seats that might make in a general election ...... from what i have read, even though ukip show 16% support at this point in the proceedings, it is unlikely to lead to them winning even a handful of seats ..... how much any votes ukip grabs will affect the marginal balance of the other parties is another of the great unknowns

I like post 25223.
Hands on experience in real life situation is something our prime ministers lack.
They don't know what is going on outside their small, controlled world.

That means, by your logic, that Ed Balls is no economist as he did the same degree as Cameron at the same university.

The problem is that they are out of touch.
They don't have real life experience. Our princes are more normal people than them.

All these supposed problems in the Conservative party are very temporary. All parties go through this. The media is just jumping on it. In a few months as the economy grows the picture is going to change.

You will be right if the boys start changing course. They are not spending on infrastructure at all.

Actually, they are spending on infrastructure and have been doing so for the past year or two.
The funny thing is that it's only governments who have the balls to look upon spending as an investment. When it comes to normal households.....

He is great. Biking on the streets gave him enough exposure to real life issues. He will not come forward though.

What Hays doesnt know or hasnt told you about Balls he went on and did this......
Later he attended the John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard, where he was a Kennedy Scholar specialising in Economics.
AND......
Balls was from 1989 to 1990 a teaching fellow in the Department of Economics, Harvard University
AND.......
He joined the Financial Times in 1990 as a lead economic writer
AND......
While he was chief economic adviser to the Treasury...............ends
Hays youve been found out.......... Cameron is no Economist, Balls is and not only that but one of the highest order.
Resign resign Hays........ your posts are not just inaccurate but at time dammed right lies.

Balls is no more an economist than Cameron. Don't forget that Labour had Alan Johnson as shadow Chancellor. He hasn't even got GCSE maths!

cant even take it when their is overwhelming evidence.
You stay in denial Hays just like Cameron, and we all know whats going to happen to him.
And yes Johnson was out of his depth hes admitted that to insiders but even a layman like him was far better than the present part time chancellor, probably the worst we have ever seen at nos 11.

Ask yourself why does Cameron keep wanting to avoid PMQs............ answer because Milliband beats him up everytime and labours lead increases everytime in the polls.
