Cameron wants another seven years as PM...

To answer your relevant question, I thought that given his popularity, he was only going to get some very rude comments from the many thousands of people that have suffered under his Governments measures. This comment will then give his supporters on here a chance then to blame it all on Labour.
I am coming to the conclusion that there are many on this Forum that do not wish to hear the truth spoken about them by the grass roots population, but at the end of the day without us how boring the Forum would become.
As Grissly1911 says to you there are many insane threads on here and if you do not wish to read them then just pass them by. If truth be known you enjoy being able to give your comments which at times are just as insane as the ones you complain about.
(For the betting types on here.... after that little 'speech' on Marr, William Hill changed the odds on the election - 6/5 favourites Labour (from 6/4) majority..... lots of top Con types (who I actually respect) were unhappy with the car crash comments and insults about Nigel and his Ukip voters... Dave just can't hide his true feelings about us all as they are always just beneath the surface veneer of caringness?0 -
DLW ... Dave just can't hide his true feelings about us all as they are always just beneath the surface veneer of caringness
The only way that David Cameron can hide his true feelings is when he follows the script that has been written for him. Without them he feels totally uncomfortable and an ill at ease within himself.0 -
.... and the sockie army complained about Renoman (now PPR) and his later incarnation Efflidiplodocus (also now PPR). Makes you wonder.
At least with Renoman we got some DIY tips.0 -

Renoman made the big mistake of being a homeowner on an IO mortage and doing well out of it.
All the above is sufficient to unleash the doomster posse led by devon, with shorty, foxy, desperate prof and an amalgam of sockies in his trails.0 -

No, he made the big mistake of blowing his own trumpet too many times, and getting rather "nasty" when some of us started to realise and point out that he was just an attention seeking show off.
Funny, I thought that Effendropocopuloculus might be RM v2.0. My limited encounters with that character were much more pleasant and civilised. He seemed to have changed his tune, or at least he wasn't blowing his on trumpet any longer. Obviously he returned to form, hence the PPR.30 Year Challenge : To be 30 years older.

They won't get in, they won't even get any seats, they might just let Labour in thought -- Is that what you want ? Cos that's what'll happen ....No-one would remember the Good Samaritan if he'd only had good intentions. He had money as well.
The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money.

No it's not the best justification for voting Tory I can provide because it was not a justification for voting Tory, it was a justification for not voting UKIP for the benefit of people who would rather see a Tory government than a Labour one. Try thinking a bit before you post off the cuff -- or is trying to put words into people's mouths part of the tactics ?
It goes beyond beliefs and policies. A lot of the importance of government lies in managerial competence. Neither side is stellar in that respect, but I have always found Labour to be supremely managerially incompetent -- look what they did to the public finances.
Some basic Tory beliefs that I support -- not always turned into policies I'll grant you, but that politics for you :- smaller government/lower taxation; encouragement of self-reliance and individual responsibility; belief in rewarding enterprise/ability/effort/risk-taking; Euro-sceptic; prioritise victims over criminals; limit immigration that is unaffordable; anti the human rights farce; reject income redistribution for its own sake; welfare to be a safety-net only; education is to educate not to socially engineer; scepticism about political correctness and 'anti-elitism'.No-one would remember the Good Samaritan if he'd only had good intentions. He had money as well.

The problem is labour literally pay for votes with benefits and bring the county to its knees, the current lot are doing the right thing in not paying for votes with benefits, the problem is the hard working few amongst us who can see this as a good thing are in the minority so they may not get enough votes to continue.Have my first business premises (+4th business) 01/11/2017
