Well said Vicky. Dear me the Cons even opposed the minimum wage legislation when Labour was in govt. How odd to have oppositions actually opposing. It's why I'd prefer a change to the electoral system to help steer to more concensus politics. I've made the point many times in the past on here too, the Cons wanted the Banks regulated less between 2005 to the time of the worldwide financial crash. It would as you say,have been likely far worse had the Cons taken govt in 2005 and then actually carried out regulating the Banks less. Last edited by joeysteele; 11-09-2017 at 01:55 PM. |

Fantastic news, personally I take this to mean that it has been accepted that the 'deal' struck is failing and/or not constitutional and therefore will not be accepted in parliament as an acceptable use of public funds.
Theresa’s May fragile grab on power has been laid bare after the Democratic Unionist Party announced it was voting with Labour on two crunch issues. The party propping up the Conservatives will dramatically switch sides by backing Jeremy Corbyn’s bid to secure higher NHS pay and block hikes in student fees. The Tories are now expected to sit in their hands in the two votes – allowing the motions to pass in the belief they do not bind the Government to act. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...-a7945071.html

Ew, I hope Labour knows better than to get into bed with the DUP. I will not support any party that partners with a group that promotes homophobia and is anti-women's rights.
I'm glad this deal seems to be falling apart though, public funds should not be used to keep Theresa May in power. It's a gross injustice if it were to happen. |

They will effectively be voting with other parties too that think that these fees are exploitative.

The beginning of the end?.... * crosses fingers
The Democratic Unionist Party has dramatically threatened to rethink its deal to prop up Theresa May in power if she compromises over the Irish border after Brexit. Sammy Wilson, one of the DUP’s 10 MPs, said the party would not accept any moves that would see Northern Ireland “treated differently than the rest of the UK”. The warning follows reports that further powers could be devolved to Belfast allowing rules in areas such as agriculture and energy to be aligned with the EU – rather than London. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...-a8085046.html
