    Cameron and Osborne have done nothing to sort out the country's structural problems.

    Only thing that's bothering me is : it just seems to be going too smoothly for the Nationalistas right now. I can't help feeling that that Red Tories and Blue Tories will join hands before the 7th May to shaft all the other parties.
    The Lib Dems will be annihilated for their treachery in the student fees debacle - I'm really surprised that such intelligent politicians allowed themselves to get done over like that. But, they did. The Red Tories will be next to be executed I assume - after they have served their purpose as useful idiots.

    Anyway maybe our resident cognitive-dissonant is right and the Blue Tories will scrape home.

    Meantime ....Saor Alba Gu Brath

      If I garnered a militia and ordered everyone in the area up to the election booth with threats of death I don't think I could ever get anyone in this constituency to vote conservative. The last conservative candidate defected to labour after getting humped...

          Spot on. Tinkering to make it sound like progress without upsetting floating voters.

              It fundamentally troubles me that the electorate does not see the advances the Conservatives have made.

                      We have worse waiting times, we have worse cancer survival rates, we have less availability of drugs than the English. We have higher funding.
