    Thats enough for me im voting conservative and thats it.. the bloke is a complete clown, we all want to know the answers to the questions that lady asked him, and then he went and called her biggoted, the blokes 100% pr!ck.

    He couldn't answer because she kept talking over him with another.

    Twice he was trying to answer a question and she interrupted. He got to finish the last one!

    If that's your idea of "utterly losing it" you need to get a grip on reality. He calmly got in the car whilst quietly expressing his discontent to his colleagues. Were it not for the open mike there would be nothing to report.

    They left amicably,she was going to carry on voting Labour.


    The idiot didn`t have to say or do anything.
    And it wasn't his intention to "say or do anything" publicly. The idea that he shouldn't express opinions privately is absurd.

    I think I`ll put you on the ignore list for this comment.
    You seem a bit bigoted to me.


    Ooh a bit sensitive aren't we?

    You're ignoring the facts so you might as well ignore me as well:rotfl:

    Well this pretty much shows what we already know, if you question Labour's views on encouraging unsustainable immigration you are a racist as far as they are concerned.

    she is concerned about the deficit, gordon isn't
    she is concerned about immigration, gordon isn't

    i don't think she's that ignorant, many people would share those concern

    yeah sure, keep ticking the box with the rose in it, labour always know best...let them do all our thinking for us

    she may well have been concerned however she certainly wasnt informed

  • We need one clear winner gordons shot himself in the foot now and hes finished, Lib dems i was impressed until i read this http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/election-2010/7632936/General-Election-2010-Lib-Dem-amnesty-signals-British-passports-for-1m-illegal-migrants.html.

    I wasnt even going to vote, i dont trust cameron, but of the three we have one thats a bare faced liar and one that wants imunity for illegal imigrants and give prisoners votes.

    I can honestly say its not worth the risk with the lib dems or labour and im going to have to take a chance on dodgy camerons conservatives.

    Hmm an anti lib dem view from a pro tory paper that is carping itself about the damage Cleggy can do to their party.Utterly convincing and wholly unbiased that article is:rotfl:

    Haha she was a complete biggot.

    She didn't even let him answer the questions before slapping him in the face with another.

    Hilarious.


    Easy to mock isn't it?. Put yourself in her shoes, member of the public suddenly given the chance to talk to the Prime Minister .What would you say? Do? personally I would probably get tongue tied.So much to say and yet so little time, he could have been whisked away within seconds for all she knew.

    She seemed genuinely concerned about the issues raised, yes she did over talk him, but so did he.

    How was she a bigot? what did she say that was Intolerant? As far as I could see she raised concerns about the flaws in the benefit system and the ongoing problems of immigration.


    Actually the fact is your post was bigoted because you ARE intolerent of her views..

    I don't agree with many posts on here but I would defend people rights to air their views........and yes even the BNP, lets have a true debate about these issues.......
