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.

The uni admission fees were not mentioned when that poll was taken. The best universities need to raise their fees.

No, it wasn't a think tank. It was just a UKIP member saying that and as usual it can be ignored.

UKIP coulde be bigger than Tories by 2018, says think tank
Posted on Tuesday, 01 October 2013
The Conservatives could have fewer members than the UK Independence Party within five years unless the Tory leadership fixes its “broken” relationship with grassroots activists, a think tank has warned.
The Bow Group called for an electoral pact with Nigel Farage’s party to stop members abandoning the Tories because they disagree with David Cameron’s policies on gay marriage and the European Union. Tory membership has almost halved, to just 134,000, since David Cameron became leader in 2005.
Read the full report in the Telegraph here.

Hi ho hi ho its off to work we go, with a shovel and pick and a walking stick, hi ho hi ho.
A poll earlier this month found that 30 per cent of Tory backbenchers were “definitely not” attending the party’s annual gathering in Manchester.
David Davis, who fought Mr Cameron for the Conservative leadership, said that the “tame” conference revealed how the conversation between the party’s leadership and activists had “broken down”.

David Davis is still upset that he lost the leadership battle.

I think a lot of conservatives were also upset that Cameroon got the job over Davis.
And looking at the membership stats, they did something about it.

GF,
The tory party faithful have been conned by Cameron, Osborne and his Bullingdon Club Cronies
The country has been fragmented by their policies and inequalities in social opportunities been reduced by these con men.
The party should be called the Revival party for Elitism.
-====
To-days economic figures support what many are saying that Osborne is a failure and Cameron is falsifying the growth expectancies.
My guess is the public is realising this more and more rapidly and that Labour will be returned at the next general election with an overall majority.

The membership were against David Davis. He lost in the poll of members.

Indeed indeed Fred just look at the manufacturing figures this morning and when did the IMF call anything right
Answer.........never.
The deluded tory boys will soon be having to move over to UKIP, its either that or the death of the Tory party as we know it.

Camoron once again ducked every question asked by Milly.
You can tell when hes losing he goes from red to purple.
Labour 9 Tories 1.
