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.

could have been condensed to 2 words!

labour party tenure ...... snow white and wonderful??????
remind us why they were kicked out

Fred1new - 12 Feb 2014 12:01 - 36491 of 81564

I am interested in the probable hoardings before the next election.
Tories destroying the NHS.

Tories inept management of floods, protecting and dishing out money to rich friends.

Angry Scots tell tory toffs to get lost.


Tories Taxing the poor to pay for tax cuts for the idle rich.

Tory unemployment figures exposed as fraudulent.

Housing bubble burst.

Students leaving University with debts of £50000 and have no prospect of owning own homes.

While some toffs moving into parents gravy trains.

Two aircraft carriers sink in Thames.


==

Torrid party renames itself the Sleazy Party and nominate Redwood as Leader and Moggy as deputy.


Cameron decides to spend the rest of his life working for the Green party and penitence for his cockups.

Haystack - 12 Feb 2014 12:28 - 36492 of 81564

I think the list would be a lot like longer for Labour and I am sure we can all think of items for it.

goldfinger - 12 Feb 2014 12:38 - 36493 of 81564

Cyners no you remind us why the Tories werent elected with an overall majority.

cynic - 12 Feb 2014 12:42 - 36494 of 81564

simple - they didn't win enough seats .....
and of course labour won even fewer or lost an awful lot, if one wants to be a little more brutal

but more importantly, in my not at all humble opinion, will be the likely very low t/o at the next election ..... that just allows the activists (aka zealots and loonies) of any hue to garner more power than they warrant

goldfinger - 12 Feb 2014 12:42 - 36495 of 81564

Notice how the Tory front bench had women on at PMQs, and four women strategically placed behind fat Dave.

Today
The Bank of England revised up its growth forecast for 2014 to 3.4 percent from 2.8 percent, a more bullish forecast than most other economists, and one which the Bank said was due in part to its belief that the Office for National Statistics had underestimated fourth-quarter gross domestic product growth.

The Bank says room remains for more growth without stoking inflation, despite a record number of people in work and business surveys that show bottlenecks in factories.

Inflation has fallen unexpectedly rapidly to its 2 percent target and the Bank said it expected it to dip further to 1.7 percent by March, before hovering close to 2 percent for the next couple of years.

Haystack - 12 Feb 2014 12:49 - 36498 of 81564

As Andrew Neil and Nick Robinson both said just now, those figures are a potential game changer for the economy and politics.

More chance now of a Conservative victory.

Polls now showing UKIP potentially in 3rd place in EU elections.

goldfinger - 12 Feb 2014 12:50 - 36499 of 81564

And still we have Food Banks opening at record levels and Loan pay day merchants booming.

goldfinger - 12 Feb 2014 12:54 - 36500 of 81564

Dream on Hays do you really think the ordinary Joe Soap on the street cares about economic growth.

Its the pound in the pocket that counts and people have long memorys they wont forget the 4 years of nil pay award or pay cuts and hours cut.

Haystack - 12 Feb 2014 13:00 - 36501 of 81564

Growth at that level is almost a boom. That will put cash in people's pockets. It will produce a feel good mood. The choice will be for people to vote for Labour, who the public doesn't trust on the economy or vote for the Conservatives who would be bringing good times and a boom. The public just love a boom and wouldn't want Labour to spoil it.

goldfinger - 12 Feb 2014 13:05 - 36502 of 81564

From the BBC teletext service "But Mr Carney WARNED that the recovery was NOT SECURE" .............

Hays your beginning to lie like the the two at the top Fat Dave and Sir Giddeon.

Haystack - 12 Feb 2014 13:07 - 36503 of 81564

No recovery is secure. He is just hedging his bets. The likelihood is that it will bring an overall Conservative majority.

doodlebug4 - 12 Feb 2014 13:13 - 36504 of 81564

I wouldn't be surprised if we had another hung parliament at the next election. Labour aren't nearly as far left as they used to be and voters are generally totally fed-up with these idiot politicians - it doesn't matter which party they represent. The latest flood fiasco is pretty typical of the blame game that goes on whenever something goes wrong in this country.

Fred1new - 12 Feb 2014 13:14 - 36505 of 81564

!!!!!! Potential !!!!!!! Burst.

Typical tory con.


Money "NO OBJECT"!!!!!!!!!!!

Lying B.

Unless it is going into his backers' pockets.

goldfinger - 12 Feb 2014 13:20 - 36506 of 81564

Money "NO OBJECT"!!!!!!!!!!!

You mark my words.

cynic - 12 Feb 2014 13:27 - 36508 of 81564

cut through the crap shall we?
the economy is unequivocally on the mend, but unless or more likely until peeps see more money in their pockets and/or life in their high street, they won't pay much attention

the political platforms are likely to move away from the economy - labour can't win trying to use that old dog - back to immigration and perhaps EU

however, peeps have first to be convinced that it is worth turning out to vote for anyone, and that remains MY major concern
