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.

Unite signed up 100 new members of the local Labour party and paid their sub's. These people were not asked and did not even know they were being signed up. Just the usual union corruption. We had Scargill conning his union and now we have McCluskey conning Labour and voters.

Fact is this, Cameron couldnt get enough votes to beat arguably the worst PM this country as ever had.

The public now know what Cameron and his fellow Eton boys stand for, they hadnt realised before last election what a group of toffs they were.

Cameron will NOT get as many votes at the next election as UKIP will steal a lot off him.

Liberals will have a reduced nos of voters following them.

RESULT..... Labour will win with an overal majority.

The truth is Hays you and cyners everytime UKIP is mentioned here dash in to make some negative comment.

Admit it, your frightened to death what they are going to do to the Tory vote........and YOU KNOW IT.

UKIP will collapse in a real election. They are being seen as strange and bizzare. Only this week Garage said he doesn't use his oyster card so he cannot be tracked. UKIP candidates are being shown up to be extremists. Some of their previous social media posts are coming back to haunt them. They are not a party, but a bunch of rabble.

Again your defence mechanism locks on.......

"The truth is Hays you and cyners everytime UKIP is mentioned here dash in to make some negative comment.

I wouldn't be so sure, theres plenty of us under 40's who don't trust Lab, Con or Lib Dems that will vote UKIP. Its not about the individuals being extremists but the parties policies as a whole and if they will stick to them.. We already know, the three main parties won't stick to their referendums so time to out the old in bring in new ideas.

THE next election looks certain to be decided on the economy. As people consider how to vote, two big questions come into focus. Who has constructed economic policy with the right motives in mind? And who has the competence to deliver? Who do you like, who do you trust? Both matter.

Polls show Labour has long enjoyed a lead on motives – with 28 per cent currently agreeing that its heart is in the right place, compared to 24 per cent saying the same of the Tories. But Ed Miliband’s party is being killed on competence.

In fact, the polling on competence is staggering. In a survey conducted by YouGov late last month, by 52 per cent to 25 per cent people think George Osborne is doing a bad job as chancellor. But by 32 per cent to 23 per cent, people would sooner have Osborne as chancellor than Labour’s Ed Balls. By 33 per cent to 25 per cent, people trust the coalition more than Labour to make the right decisions on the economy.

Labour’s competence problem on the economy is longstanding and comes down to two issues. First, the party has been unable to explain its economic policy to the public. At a time when people endlessly hear the idea that debt is bad, Labour has relied on press releases and interviews to combat it. They need to take the debate up a level, using set piece events to explain from first principles why they are right and the Tories wrong.

Secondly, Labour looks incompetent on the economy because Ed Balls’s media performances are so appalling. The lessons for him are no more complicated than this: if you behave in an aggressive and unpleasant manner on TV, people will not trust you to exercise good judgment in office.

Breaking news

Labour is handing details of Falkirk Unite situation to police.

Possible charges of election malpractice.

excuse me guys ......i know i am currently quite happily removed, but please can you all stop droning on about the same boring old rubbish?

perhaps start getting interested again in spring 2015, even if the little frisson about militant Unite etc does have a certain but short-lived appeal

It may not be short lived appeal. There is some evidence of the practice having been going on across the country for some time. This could be the biggest election story for years. There may have been widespread election fraud. Some of the people secretly signed up to Labour and paid for by Unite are not even Labour supporters. Some have come forward and were Conservative voters.

You sound desperate hays.

What people look for the day they vote is how much dosh they have in their back pocket and under your lot its not been much.

It is Labour that is getting desperate!

The Conservatives have a nickname for McCluskey - Father Christmas.

How much did the Labour party know about the election fiddling? The enquiry may end up being wider.

I would think the present tory "boasting" is alienating many voters than aligning them to their party.

I think it may be like another tory bright idea of rushing to print without any real hard details or facts of the union and labour electoral transgressions.


Would think it not of national consequence, but may show where necessary rule changes should be made.

But at least Miliband at least thought and took advice before rushing to the media and producing U-turn policy as one now expects from the shambles of a government, usually such changes being back up by distortion of data a false interpretation of slanted data.

It will be interesting to see what comes out.

But I suggest similar enquiry in the local Con parties administration would produce the same tribal behaviour.

Referendum bill just passed Commons vote 304 to zero.

Fred
This doesn't look like tribal behaviour. It looks like FRAUD.

Labour has suspended 14 constituencies over possible irregularities. For irregularities read FRAUD.

Hays question...... do you get sexualy excited by this kind of thing?.

Your going to look a real bugga walking out of the house with a big blue conk and a stiffy on down below.

You mean like the impeccable claims for a Wisteria hair cut?
