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.

Fred.........

Beetroot Dave LOL, yep as red as a POST BOX he he.

An analytical report of the 2005 Labour manifesto, which contained more than 100 broken promises, was prepared ahead of the launch of Labour's 2010 manifesto.

Check it out at: http://www.conservatives.com/News/News_stories/2010/04/~/media/Files/Downloadable%20Files/hearditallbefore.ashx

Labour promise: ‘Our ambition is to see a publicly owned Royal Mail fully restored to good health’ (p.22).

Falling mail volumes. Royal Mail claims mail volumes are now falling by ten per cent per year due to intensifying private sector competition and the impact of the recession.
(The Daily Telegraph, 16 September 2009). This fall is costing the company around £170 million per annum (BBC News, 8 October 2009).

Essential reform abandoned. Despite saying that abandoning reform of Royal Mail would be ‘irresponsible and an abdication by this Government in respect of our 2005 manifesto commitment’ (House of Lords Hansard, 11 May 2009, Col. 834), Lord Mandelson did just
that just over a month later (Hansard, 1 July 2009, Col. 222).

BUT IT WASNT IN THE FINAL DOCUMENT AS DISCUSSED ON THE DAILY POLITICS BBC 2 today AND on the ITV NEWS TONIGHT.

Camoron to reclaim any street cred as to stop LYING.

The magic wand of private ownership must be very powerful in that it changed the prospects of RM around in one day. Nothing to do with the country taking the debt and the city taking the profits!

IE. when it was flogged to donors to the coffers of the torrid party.

Hey Hoy!


I think we need an enquiry into the shenanigans which were going on behind the curtains!

Yep the 16 instituions that had this so called Gentlemans Agreement not to flog the shares in the very short term, which they DULY DID.

The public robbed By Dave and his City Chums.

Farage im afraid miles ahead on points in the debate tonight.

Clegg is just a stand up dummy working to a script.

No personality.

What makes people think that Unite try and control their boy Miliband?

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/unite-union-boss-len-mccluskey-threatens-to-launch-party-to-rival-labour-9231266.html

Unite union boss Len McCluskey threatens to launch party to rival Labour’s biggest financial backer has threatened to sever its link with the party altogether if Ed Miliband loses next year’s general election – raising the prospect of it having to compete for votes with a rival Workers’ Party lavishly backed by union money.

Len McCluskey, General Secretary of Unite, forecast that the 2015 election will bring defeat for Labour if the party campaigns on what he called “a pale shade of austerity”, rather than the more robust left-wing political programme that he and his union allies want.

The union leader signalled that a rival party could be created to challenge Labour if it does not win next year.

If carried out, the threat would plunge the left in Britain into its biggest crisis for 33 years – resulting in the most significant split since a group of Labour MPs broke away to form the Social Democratic Party in 1981, dividing the anti-Tory vote in half.

Mr McCluskey revealed that he and Mr Miliband rarely speak to one another, though they are due to meet this week.

Speaking about the consequences of a defeat next year, he said: “I fear for the future of the Labour Party.”

I decided not to watch the Clegg/Garage punch up tonight as the previous one was so awful.,

The polls I have seen this evening suggest that Farage won the debate. I have two reactions to that. Firstly, what does it matter. They are both fringe parties. One will get its usual MPs and the other won't get any. Secondly, YouGov admitted after the last debate that the polls were flawed because a disproportionate number of UKIP supporters watched the programming and therefore skewed the opinion polls.

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL................

code for meaning, gosh UKIP are going to take a lot of seats away from us and hand the election to labour on a plate.

Clegg's silly remarks about Putin , and his fantasy remarks to Farage about going back to the past made him look a fool. And his lie from last week saying only 7% of our law's , directives or what ever liked to call them were made by the EU. What Farage could have said was you lied about the 7% just as you lied about student tuition fee's

You doth protest too much Haystack!


Farage won over even a BBC audience, no mean feat!

Haze,

I not sure if you are on any medication, but whether you are or not I would pop in and see your doctor.

That is if you can get an appointment and as long as Wavy Dave hasn't sold the NHS.

=======

Members of the public are realising why Wavy Dave and his cronies are to cowardly to face up to Fauxpage in a public debate.


The blue rinse brigade and the Captain Mainwarings are deserting the tories in their droves.

Onward and downward into the next general election.

8-)

Farage was very mean to Nick.

He almost ran away with his ball..

Spot on alders.

Nick doesent have any balls Fred, he's just a blow up balloon.

Here we are.............
