    Conservative voters have dignity, and manners, and even when we sat through years of Labour ruining the country we didn't resort to bile and nastiness.

    Labour voters only know how to hold their hands out, and throw insults around.

    That's because Labour didn't ruin the country so you had nothing to be upset about.

    Can someone please explain to me why David Milliband who talks of reforming the public sector, addressing the deficit and the global competition is referred to as a radical and a great thinker, yet a Conservative who says the same is nasty or governing only for the rich?

    Because history tells us that the Tory's are nasty and govern only for the rich. Recent Evidence? They reduced the tax burden on the rich by reducing the 50p tax rate before doing anything else...

    All paid for with money that was taxed south of scouse land.... It's easy to spend it, not so easy to pay for it.

    Scousers have to whole self pity thing worked out. Maggie gave the northerners a boot up the jacksie they needed.

    Miliband has never demonstrated one iota of leadership qualities.

    He had the qualities required to become leader - but that's not the same thing.


    Well not unless you class screwing your brother over by selling your soul for a union block vote as a leadership quality.
    Usual right wing bigotry from Fella:T

    politics is ridiculous. no need for the system we have. we should just have an elected pm, chancellor etc and people vote directly for them. business leaders should hold these roles. the MD of a FTSE 100 (or equivalent) company should be PM. The FD of a FTSE 100 should be chancellor etc etc etc. Not no marks like filthy smooth face and osbourne.
    You mean the business leaders who are making the world a better place for all of us....;)unbelivable some of the rubbish that gets on here.
