But all politics basically is is Labour giving us everything and then Tories coming in a few years down the line to sort the debt out. But Conservatives don't care about anyone other than those with a bit of money. And by bit, I mean hundreds of thousands.

God help us all if the up and coming electorate have such naive and simplistic views of politics. If you can't see how badly Labour have damaged this country during their 13 years of mismanagement, incompetence, sheer greed and grasping hypocrisy, then I truly fear for the future of this country.
Thatcher encouraged self sufficiency, Labour encouraged fecklessness and dependendence. Thatcher encouraged and facilitated home ownership for all, Labour kept the working classes in social housing, Thatcher gave bright children from poor backgrounds the opportunity of a great education, Labour immediately closed that door the moment they got into power, but made sure their own brats took full advantage of private education. Thatcher didn't feed a generation of kids the lie that they were all destined for academic greatness, Labour has propogated that myth to the extent we have dumbed down qualifications so that thick idiots can now get into university to take micky mouse degrees.
Thatcher chose her battles well, she subdued the monstrous unions of the 70s and 80s who persistently held the country to ransom, whilst Labour have reverted to their true colours by electing a union puppet as their Leader. Thatcher sent our troops to protect the BRITISH in the Falkland Islands with the full backing of the country, Labour spawned the war criminal that is Blair who committed us to wars by lying and deceiving the nation, and laying us all open to continued terrorist attacks. Thatcher was in favour of controlled immigration, whilst Labour cynically threw open our borders to "import" new voters. Under Thatcher we were proud to be British, and patriotism was not yet a dirty word. Under Labour we have been browbeaten by political correctness and burdened by the monstrous and totally unjust Human Rights legislation.
We now have a generation of kids who think the world owes them a living, and feel entitled to all sorts of "rights" with no corresponding responsibilities at all. The legacy of Labour misrule is social control on an unprecedented scale, loss of freedoms, increased bureacracy, and a nanny state that allows feckless, workshy scroungers to leech off society for life - literally from the cradle to the grave. Worst of all, Labour have robbed us of our pride in our nation, instead making any display of patriotism or pride in our culture and heritage, something to be ashamed of.
