Just what is wrong with the support for the other countries within the United Kingdom...
I don't understand, why should the minority in London have control?

Most people in Scotland will vote for Nicola and SNP as they have done a superb job up here.

Here's an interesting read...

'So the UK began the period with the second highest deficit (after the US) and ended with the second highest (after Japan), despite the second largest fall among these countries. The contribution of lower spending to that fall was the largest among these countries. The UK was the only country where the deficit has not been reduced by having revenue growing faster than national income. That revenue weakness has come despite employment growth in the UK over the past five years having been the fastest among these countries. It largely reflects weakness in income taxes, due to policy measures and disappointing productivity and earnings growth.'

Effectively the deficit has not been reduced, no money is being raised via tax, we're not producing enough and not many are earning enough..... so where's all the money gone?

Only ones that make an effort

wants to ban the Grand National?

Fecking Bitch

and bringing to the UK Billions of pounds
and that Green Woman - From Down Under

I'm a bit wary of that, it could be good for some areas but disastrous for others and I'm worried it'll be a way to 'off load' areas of high economic deprivation as boroughs focus on the areas that generate money and neglect others?
We would effectively then go back to pockets of slums.

I would rather myself, although I was born and lived in Worcestershire,see power devolved to regions more North than to have just an English overall body.
which would have,in the main, the affluent smug South elected Conservatives dictating policy and resources to the other regions and counties of England.

You make a good point however, it would need to be carefully and 100% equally fairly set up.

That is a really disgraceful comment,no main party should be held totally responsible for such events and they haven't just happened in Labour controlled areas either.

rule.

Oh dear,dear dear, you are wrong again arista, this is not the thread I said I wouldn't be back on at all.

It was the 'are the tories a threat to the NHS' thread.

So you are wrong, no need to apologise for that however, others that have read the thread know which one it is I said I wouldn't post on again.
Simply because I have said all and more as to what there was to say from me, and there is no point in continuing when people just dismiss someones valid aguments and points and are not listening anyway.

Anyway,as I said, you are talking here about the wrong thread.See,even you are not right all the time.
Have a really good day anyway.

I have not posted since on it either, not that is it anything to do with you anyway were I to.

I never said,I was not going to post on other threads,so what is your problem with me, oh yes, I don't agree with you as to Saint David and the Conservative party.

Really arista. with respect go and bother someone else, preferably not another member too however.

Life In The Fast Lane
Thank you for that, I appreciate this post from you.I also apologise for getting picky about it to you too.

Think I will keep off tibb most of the day, I am just getting more and more irrtitated and as to people I thought I liked too.

Tibb is not the best place to be during an election I am finding.

I get better debate with the people I talk to in their homes, at their doors and in the streets,who are at least open to listening.

Then you add the unnecessary bit at the end of your post,well my part at the top of this post stands,clearly your admitting you were wrong was only a token gesture,nothing else.

arista ,leave it there,I really cannot be bothered with this nonsense with you today.
