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.

Maybe Cameron has singled you out

Maybe you are the ultimate floating voter.

I can,t swim.

Nor can I. The rest of the family can though.

My kids are getting bored already. Summer break has only started for a few weeks

My eldest is doing an internship for an MP for the summer. It may help when he graduates next year in Politics.

Doubt it, if hes like you he wont listen to the MP.

In fact the poor sod might aswel just send him out delivering leaflets.

A government minister no less. He arranged it all himself. The rules for applications for internships are that you submit your CV and covering letter without your name and personal details.

Tell him to be carefull if its a Tory male.

And even more carefull if it's female...undecided.

It could be male or femail and Conservative or Lib.

Well?

Juicy Tomatoes

National Opinion Poll (YouGov):
LAB - 38% (+1)
CON - 34% (-1)
UKIP - 13% (+1)
LDEM - 8%

UKIP getting stronger Hays, Id start to sweat if I were you. Are you still in bed??, tap Hilary on the shoulder and inform her labour are moving up again.

UKIP going nowhere but down.

CON + UKIP beats LAB + LDEM (just).

If UKIP going down goes to CON and not to LAB then CON is still OK.

IMHO, winning the next GE is going to be all about:

1. Winning the marginal seats.
2. The battle between LAB and CON in capturing UKIP votes.
3. Mopping up the remnants of the LDEM voters, who are about to disappear into oblivion.
4. Which party do people 'trust' the most and want to vote for?
5. Defining which aspect of the word 'trust' is most important to voters.

eg, Trust with the Economy? Trust with the NHS? Trust with Education? Trust with Law and Order? Etc, etc.

The Libs will rise again at the GE. They have been in this situation before in advance of a GE. Their party machinery is very good and they have always recovered at the election.
