General election quandary

[SueEllen]

When did the Tories "screw things up"?

When I was at school e.g. Poll Tax, talking about family values due to having 2 or 3 each, fighting over Europe, Black Wednesday, inventing PFI so that f*ckwit Blair could use it to destruction, using the Labour policy of RTB to destruction but not building more.

Let us get something straight about Greenies. they are not nice or well meaning people.

Not a handicap in politics apparently.

The IFS has warned that, if the Coalition’s current policies continue unchanged, child poverty will
rise by an average of around 100,000 each year.

When an individual cannot make any sort of logical argument to get their point of view accross they resort to smear.

Greenies - no different from your average religious nutter.

They support almost anything that is anti british culture whether it be the murdering women hating nutters of ISIS or Putin.

Oh dear, you haven't actually read a single 'green' policy have you? Do try it before you make yourself look any sillier, and ditch the Daily Mail while you're at it, there's a good fellow.

It is a tirade of woolly aspirations built on a socialist state underpinned by borrowing.

These are all subjective and contextual opinions, whereas the bankrupting of the economy has only been managed twice in the last 50 years and both times by labour.

Opinion noted. Now, where do they express support for the murderers of ISIS? Or was that just a 'smear'?

No crime to belong to Islamic State, al-Qaida or IRA, says Green party leader | Politics | The Guardian

There is not a victim or minority group that will not enjoy the largesse of these people. Where it does it for me is when it says that everyone will have a fair pension. As I dont have a pension I can retire and vote for the greens and enjoy the rest of my life cruising and gardening

One thing that it seems to have omitted is how the wealth is going to be generated to pay for all this. I suppose like all lefties if the tree dies up there is always borrowing

It is a manifesto against free enterprise - the freedom for human beings to trade with each other and against any sort of aspiration to excellence.

The policy is that making membership of any organisation illegal should end. (it worked so well in Paris didn't it?)

it should not be a crime simply to belong to an organisation or have sympathy with its aims, though it should be a crime to aid and abet criminal acts or deliberately fund such acts.

Only on Daily Mail Island does saying it should not be a crime to belong to an organisation equate to support for that organisation. That was just a smear.

Indeed, a strange argument for someone on the Right, one might have supposed that punishing someone simply for membership of the organisation and, by extension, punishing them for their opinions runs counter to the libertarian principle of free speech. You don't defend freedom by taking away freedoms.
