    i thought leadership change was certain as cameron said he wouldn't go for a third term
    or were you referring to the IRA loving Corbyn

    It is 'certain' and I'm talking about the fallout re. Saudi Arabia loving Call me Dave's departure.
    He'll then have no need for this then will he:-

    another post of no substance

    is there a point other than general dislike of cameron (which by the way I agree with you about sooner he goes the better)?

    No, he definitely meant the Saudi Arabia loving Cameron.

    Yes, I dislike Cameron too as he is a man of no moral principles
    and indeed I dislike our relationship with Saudi

    Do you like Corbyn and his relationship with the IRA and some very unsavoury middle eastern people?

    I dislike most politicians although Corbyn and McDonnell`s stance on Irish republicanism would not stop me voting Labour. A lot of other stuff could though.

  • The cuts to disabled benefits were too much for even Iain Duncan Smith it seems. :eek:
    Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith has resigned citing pressure to make cuts to disability benefits.It comes after mounting controversy over £4bn of planned cuts to Personal Independence Payments, expected to affect 640,000 people.

    Mr Duncan Smith said the cuts were "not defensible" within a Budget that "benefits higher earning taxpayers".

    It all seems so stupid it makes me want to give up.
    But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid ?

    Yep even that scum bag can't stomach Osborne's Omnishambles policies towards the disabled. Also probably indicative of deeper splits over Europe!

    Smiths resignation is a complete irrelevance. His utter incompetence would have seen him dispatched anyway. The real scrutiny should be placed on Osborne, and Cameron. This latest shambles has all the hallmarks of the born to rule arrogance of these two chancers. Who have apparently surrounded themselves with chinless wonders of the same ilk. Following his humiliation over tax credits, when he had the full support of Cameron you would have thought that anyone who proposed the idea of penalising the disabled in able to afford tax cuts for the rich would have been laughed out of the room. Its things like this that remind me of Dorries claim, that they're two rich boys, who don't know the price of milk. Osborne and Cameron really do need to beware the ides of march. The Tories are ruthless with damaged goods. Look what they did to St Hilda.
