    Current opinion polls have a Labour lead over the Conservatives and Lib Dem, so I can't see it happening.

    If there was an election soon, the Labour campaign will be along the lines of Osborne promising cuts, and yet we are borrowing more now than before. Too much, too deep, too quick.

    Until CMD can show that Osborne can walk the walk, it's a loser.

        Old Greg might be underestimating it.

            Possibly. It is actually the minimum number of stupid people in Britain. The real figure could be higher but is not quantified by my measure.

                  It is indeed a reasonable assumption that the people who voted in the UK 2010 General Election is a sub-set but not an exclusive sub-set of stupid people in the UK.

                      Sounds like the stuff riots are made of.



                      BTW is saying riot on an internet forum akin to saying bomb at the airport?
