That will be the same Washington Post that wrote-off Trump over and again, and each time they were proven wrong by events,so many experts with thier graphs on female voters and Trumps 20% cieling and how he'd definitely gone too far this time, and the next, and the next
One of thier loved experts, Frank Luntz tweeted on election night that he was calling it 100% in the bag for Hillary, lol
I recommend skeptiscism, gives you a more open mind0 -
All Govmts borrow into the future but this govmt has no idea how to grow an economy. That was the only way to deal with the deficit. Austerity has backfired big time! Record pay levels in the public sector? What planet are you on. I work in the public sector and haven't had a pay rise for six years! This is the worst govmt I've seen in my years on this planet!

Austerity you say. Had a client enquiry from a new migrant, not only on housing benefit and tax credits but they also get £1000 p month as thier son has autism, this is the sort of thing I see daily.
2 recent cases in the paper of huge payouts from the NHS, one was £20 million
£25 million per day on foreign aid
Endless enquiries, and people on my radio constantly calling for more. Billions spent on these annually
Hearing callers to LBC saying they are a aware of vast abuse around mobility motors.
Yup, reall tough austerity init0 -

whyever do you celebrate the fact that Turkey isn't joining the Eu?
it it because it isn't white and Christian?
don't the benefit of free trade apply to non white and non christian people?0 -

indeed so
so from 2010 to 2020 there will be zero wage growth (as projected )
8 years of no growth within the EU
and only 2 outside so little time for free trade to work its magic0 -

Except when it comes to Brexit; you're adamant it can only be a glorious success.Austerity you say. Had a client enquiry from a new migrant, not only on housing benefit and tax credits but they also get £1000 p month as thier son has autism, this is the sort of thing I see daily.
Presumably a fairly serious case with one of the parents acting as full time carer. Should they be denied because they are foreign?
Plenty of locals on benefits too.2 recent cases in the paper of huge payouts from the NHS, one was £20 million£25 million per day on foreign aid0
