    LOL :rotfl:This board makes me laugh. All the Tories sharing their opinions and articles from the Daily Telegraph. I wonder if the average age of this board's posters is as ancient as the Tory membership...:rotfl::rotfl:

    The "young" Labourites are too busy reading the Daily Sport to come on the internet. I wonder if your IQ is as miniscule as the average Labour voter!

    :rotfl:

    Completely off-topic, but I've never really understood the Daily Sport. If you're looking for decent p*rn, then get some decent p*rn. If you want a decent newspaper, then buy a decent newspaper. Don't get the point of getting a product that is a very poor version of both.

    Even stupid people have more sense than to read Shaven Havens on the bus?

    I would never vote Conservative on principle.

    Yes and if you did, you may end up getting the sack from the Labour Party. Can you do us all a favour and disclose your vested interests in a signature of sorts?

    and even if New Labour are purple rather than red, they're still the party with the closest match to my principles.

    You obviously have no principles then!

    It's amazing how the Labour block on this board get quite aggressive and sarcastic when it comes to discussing the possibility of Tory government! I wonder if these people are truly scared. They're probably the same ones who were singing "Things can only get better" on that dreadful morning in 97!

    This thread seems to have degenerated into a heated argument with insults being thrown thick and fast.

    Excellent.

    Labour have reduced OUR country (yes, yours and mine!) to a laughing stock! What was once GREAT BRITAIN is now LITTLE BRITAIN!

    We are spiralling downwards and are on a par with a third world country in many ways!

    It's an outrage that this government have forced upon us thousands and thousands of asylum seekers (who are NOT true asylum seekers - they just want to sponge off of YOU and ME!). This government put them up in houses which WE need and they give them PRIORITY!

    This country has become a cesspit. We are now a very poor country in terrifying debt and the High Streets will soon be looking like Ghost Towns full of empty decaying tombs!

    BECAUSE of BROWN many of us live in fear because we now have an understaffed, inept police force (some of whom themselves have criminal convictions!) and soaring crime where criminals laugh at the pathetic law!

    We are taxed very dearly by this government and we are spied on, even our DUSTBINS are spied on! - we are robbed as motorists, we have a failing NHS, shockingly bad state schools, overflowing prisons, taxed to the hilt on everything (our council tax is disgustingly high considering the sloppy services we have) - some councils only collect your rubbish every 2 weeks!!

    Yet the government employ people to do uneccessary jobs (like walking around counting lamposts - I kid you not!) because they want to be seen as giving equal opportunities to people who actually aren't up to the job!

    This government favours people who they deem to be 'different' (how patronising is that?!) people who are gay, or black, disabled - they'll be given the jobs in the local council - even if they're not up to it. NO WONDER OUR STANDARDS HAVE NOSEDIVED!....and if you are a non-English speaking immigrant you'll be sure of being given priority in healthcare - you'll be fastracked! And before anyone accuses me of racism - I'm not racist! But I'm sick of being treated like a second class citizen simply because
    I'm white, able-bodied, straight, and can speak English!

    If the truth be known Brown and his bunch of rotten eggs despise the citizens of this country. They take the p%ss out of us and manipulate thick folk to vote for them. Brown is getting RICH by destroying us, just as Blair and his sponging big gobbed wife has!

    Blair was actually a Tory in Red Tie - and Brown is too. But as the old saying goes, you can put a pig in a suit but you'll not stop it grunting!

    LABOUR has RUINED our country! And WE have to pay for their dreadful mistakes!
