The public sector, benefits claimants etc will all vote Labour to protect their jobs, pensions and hand-outs. People will only realise what a mess we are in when we inevitably go cap in hand to the IMF.Comment

I don't doubt that the Labour party are in deep denial about their chances, the concern that I have is that when the Tories get in there won't be an effective opposition as let's face it the current crop of Labourites are astoundingly feeble.
The really sad thing is that I don't expect a Conservative government to be appreciably better than the current bunch of tits in power.Comment

Originally posted by PM-Junkie View PostI have American relatives who would vote republican even if a monkey ran as a republican (and there are those who would say...), so I certainly agree it matters not a jot to some people what the actual policies are.
Sectarian politics is sadly all too common across the world, common sense or superb policies run a very distant second in many peoples minds.

If only they had wonHow did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
