Re: Conservatives Vote Getting Split

I don't want tax cuts?

I don't want massive wastage, increased benefit payments, increased immigration, increased government jobs, and tax rises either.

You’ve got most of them from this Government.

Ask the Germans and Swedes about immigration too, they wish they could turn the clock back.

All of them ?

Re: Conservatives Vote Getting Split

In my working life and as a pensioner, I’ve seen a change to Conservative from Labour in 1979, from Conservative to Labour in 1997 and the change to Conservative in 2010. I can’t remember feeling obviously worse off at the end of those Governments, yet as this one is, hopefully, coming to an end, I’m definitely worse off than I was fourteen years ago. I’m talking financially there, I’m not even thinking about the decline in the NHS, other poorer public services, worse trains, shit in our rivers and the way hardly anyone under forty can buy a house. A few months back, the Tories tried to tell us that Labour would take us “back to square one” - it was soon dropped because people were saying square one looks pretty good compared to what we’ve got now.

Weren't you a civil servant?

Of course you would want Labour!

Haven't you retired in the last fourteen years?

You are bound to feel poorer your wage has stopped.

It's not hard is it.

Tbh, I entirely understand the argument that after a decade and a half it's time for a new party. I get that, and I would argue the same in the senedd. I also get the argument that I think Bob makes sometimes about punishing them for partygate and scandals and things.

But the argument the economy is "crashed" and the problems caused by the govt etc. I'm sorry that's not true and it's kinda dangerous stuff as the new govt will face the same problems.

As I said, name a single western country not facing the same problems to a greater or lesser extent.

Can any of you do that?

The truth and common sense doesn't fit the narrative, it's all the government's fault, they loved the furlough, but don't like paying the money they were given back.

It will take years and a Labour government won't help, they will see come back to this thread in five years!

Yes ask them all, and see if you can find one happy about it, the majority aren't.

Yes Brexits the problem, shutting the country down for a few years and paying everyone's wages in furlough at the same time as most of the World shut down, was not a problem

Ah, so it’s been a great fourteen years for those in the private sector then has it?

It’s very convenient to have all of these little boxes to put people in isn’t it - every public sector worker votes Labour

Re: Conservatives Vote Getting Split

Still waiting for any of you to name a western country that isn't experiencing the same problems we have as a country?

Surely if these problems are caused by (and solved by) our government then that is an easy task isn't it?

Re: Conservatives Vote Getting Split

They won't have the first clue, God help us if we have another pandemic we will lock down forever !!!

People earning a decent living will lose out, people who rely on handouts will benefit, and immigration will grow at at even faster rate, house shortages for renters will increase, with increased population and landlords selling up, there will be change alright!

And what makes you come up with that load of drivel?
