Personally Mich I don't, I think Labour are washed up or at least I hope they are I'm sick of their appeal to the so called working classes or should I say non-working classOriginally posted by Mich the Tester View PostYes, but what I don't understand is this; why do some people seem to think Miliband will be any better?In Scooter we trust

I don't believe the Tories would have done any different. All Cameron cares about is vote winning - not about being right. Thatcher's inheritance was p1ssed away by Major. Who came up with the fuel price escalator? Who reduced ACT thus making pensions less attractive and taking us from the best pension position in Europe to one of the worst?Originally posted by DodgyAgent View PostI cannot quite believe how short people's memories are

Ah but if it's my vote he's after I'm more of a happy bunny, as that means he pretends to share my view on the benefits system, immigration and pulling out of the EU.Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostI don't believe the Tories would have done any different.

How on earth can you either say that the tories would have done the same when they have not done it before. It is a meaningless cop out to say that. Look at history. It is in the DNA of the Tory party to run finances correctly. it is not in their DNA to borrow and spend. OK they make bad decisions but they have not left the country in a state of bancruptcy as labour have - twice.Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostI don't believe the Tories would have done any different.
