THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

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.

Cynic........ watch your swearing please.

Cheers. (earlier post today)

Hays, Hays Hays...........sorry bud that poll was fiddled. Certain questions asked weighting on welfare.

This one just out now and labour have increased their lead.

Kevin Maguire on Sky News been pointing that out in last 60 mins.

YOU DO REALISE the Lib/Dems wont go along with the torries new proposals on Child Benefit and Single Parent Families especially young girls.

UK - YouGov/Sun poll: CON 31%, LAB 40%, LDEM 11%, UKIP 11%


1 hour ago poll.

Labour Lead gone from 7% to 9% and dont forget its a Tory poll with it being the SUN.

Gives Labour an overal majority at next election of 98 up from 90 last week.

goldfinger - 15 Jul 2013 23:53 - 27208 of 81564

Hays, Ive got my younger brother and family staying with me for the next 10 days on holiday.

So my contributions will be limited.

PLEASE no fiddling with figures, porkies or over endulging on the meths whilst Im away.

I will be doing Spot Checks.

Haystack - 16 Jul 2013 00:25 - 27209 of 81564

Now why would the Guardian fix the figures in favour of the Conservatives?

A left wing paper showing Lab and Con level pegging and UKIP disappearing. Looks like a Conservative majority.

More proof Hays, from your mate guido falks..............

Two Things to Note From Today’s Guardian/ICM Poll


Labour and the Tories are neck and neck with UKIP trailing off in this morning’s ICM poll for the Guardian. Though as Mike Smithson explains ICM was the pollster most out with UKIP at the 2009 Euros, where it undershot their result by 6.5% and had them in fourth place when they came second. Also worth taking into account that at the weekend Survation had UKIP on 20%, Opinium on 19% and ComRes on 18%. G.

goldfinger - 16 Jul 2013 09:44 - 27211 of 81564

Hays like I said........

PLEASE no fiddling with figures, porkies or over endulging on the meths whilst Im away.

I will be doing Spot Checks.

The true state of the partys.......

GF.

Sometimes, I think Hays needs to go home to a good thrasher to put him back in order.

8-)

Strange how the horse dealers are seemingly galloping away from "prosecutions".

cynic - 16 Jul 2013 10:32 - 27213 of 81564

i don't know why certain "friends" here get so excited about these snap polls that are done pretty much every week ..... until we get at least close to the election, they are totally meaningless, not least, because today's "excitement" - e.g. mccluskey and his loony left cronies - has an inevitable but over-heavy knee-jerk result on the next poll

Fred1new - 16 Jul 2013 11:07 - 27214 of 81564

Cynic,

Yes, if you are considering the overall result of the next election.

But they are an interesting barometer of the public approval of said policies and smears.

From what I can observe I think the lead up and next election will be one of the dirtiest, unpleasant and unethical for many years.

But who would expect nowadays that politician will be "ethical".

TANKER - 16 Jul 2013 11:42 - 27215 of 81564

I 100% agree with cutting benefits for the lazy but certainly not the real disabled
but this bunch in power are and do not care .
stop all family allowance after the two children is a must
people who are made redundant should be given 12 months then
cut the benefits .
any one who has been unemployed for over 2 years should then be made to work for the job seekers money via the local council cleaning paths and other jobs
and the environment agency cleaning up river banks and others
do not allow them to sleep and drink all day

it is time to act and put and end to a life on benefits

2517GEORGE - 16 Jul 2013 11:59 - 27216 of 81564

T re---------''any one who has been unemployed for over 2 years should then be made to work for the job seekers money via the local council cleaning paths and other jobs''.
What about the local council staff currently doing these jobs for a higher wage than Job seeker allowance, do you think their jobs would be safe. Local councils would relish the opportunity to lay off their workforce, and replace them with lower paid Job seeker allowance workers.
This method would keep low wage earners on even lower wages, in the same way that the influx of immigrants had on low wage earners.

2517GEORGE - 16 Jul 2013 12:00 - 27217 of 81564

I agree life on benefits should not be an option.
2517

TANKER - 16 Jul 2013 12:12 - 27218 of 81564

2517 when was the last time you saw people sweeping the paths
they would only do the jobs that are not done cleaning the country side up
clearing snow from paths and so on .
no one who is fit should get money for nothing
lets change the culture for good make them work for the benefits till they find a job

TANKER - 16 Jul 2013 12:39 - 27219 of 81564

Jobless couple who claim £27,000 a year benefits want a new council house because they've had SIX children 'by accident' while living in a one-bedroom flat
Maggie Flisher and husband Gavin have not worked since first baby in 2005
Mrs Flisher says she is 'super-fertile' - which makes contraception fail
She says she has begged her doctor for sterilisation but is too young

They say the council has ignored their demands for a new home for 8 years

TANKER the case you highlight above is just what the torries want for their propoganda programme.

Truth is cases like that are in the minimum but alwayd highlited by the press media and NASTY torries.

This benefit cap is right........ BUT...... private landlord rents need looking at.

Their are some right sh-t holes on the market at horendous monthly rates normaly let out here in Yorkshire by Asian landlords who do not come upto the minimum standard.

Its time we started checking more rigously on empty propertys where landlordrs are paid rent direct. LAs are not doing their job.

cynic - 16 Jul 2013 15:29 - 27221 of 81564

cases per the above are highlighted by all media of all hues .... but yes, you are right about such being a minuscule minority, just as are afghan familes being accommodated in luxurious houses in uxbridge

btw, landlords are no longer paid rent direct, but the side-effect of that is that many and possible the majority of landlords refuse to let to anyone who is on such benefits, and for very good reason

Fred1new - 16 Jul 2013 15:32 - 27222 of 81564

Yes, the present tory party is living up to its name of the NASTY party.

It is using blunderbuss methods to attack a "problem" area, manufacturing figures to fit in with its aims.

Camouflaging its own bully boy tactics and picking on groups who have a minor degree of "villains" within it.

Scaremongering and scapegoating.

My guess by the time of the next election the gun will be backfiring and they will feel the effects of their policies.

The price the Middle and Lower earners and their offspring will come home to them.

It is a pity that Andrew Lansley hadn't spent more time fixing the NHS rather than wrecking it and attempting to privatise it.

(A lot of the problems started with the concept of outsourcing was accepted and Bureau nursing and staffing was instigated.)

The con party is the leadership and have been in occupation for over three years.

They are the problem and digging deeper.

The present hierarchy of the con party is appalling and avoiding accepting the consequence of their own actions.

The public are gradually getting fed up with the pattern of feeble excuses.

This may not be the ethos of Eton, but is the ethics of the Mafioso who are said to be leading this country.

Has their present values been introduced from the USA with the help of Lynton Crosby.

Also, with the failure of the economic policies they are lying when they say that taxes won't go up under them, if they were elected again. They will!!!!
