    a) Has an EU referendum in its manifesto
    b) Has a chance of being in power to implement that policy
    Ah yes I remember those cast iron guarantees about an EU referendum the last time
    Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

    No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

          Thatcher's tory party was totally different to this shambles

            Agreed, but do you think voting for a party who'll have 2 seats maximum at the end of it all is going to help ?

            All parties lie, that's a given, so what's the alternative to voting for the one who's lies you like the most ?

              Aspiration!! o deary me
              You explain to all of us then how "aspiration" plays itself out under the socialist narrative.

              The reason the bankers are blamed is because the tax revenues they were generating dried up thus starving you of your " entitlements"

                To be fair to UKIP they have reminded parties that they are accountable to the electorate and that playing around with policies (immigration being the prime example) that do not affect the politicians themselves will bite back at them

                      I'm voting to keep my bloody hard working MP (there are some out there) who also happens to be Tory.

                      So me too.
